Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser
Track, monitor and immobilise – without changing how your car looks or drives.
Thieves can steal a car in 60 seconds. Ghost car security makes yours unstealable
Car theft is now fast, silent and highly technical – a car is stolen every 8 minutes in the UK, often through relay attacks, key cloning or CAN-bus manipulation. The Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser shuts all of this down by requiring a unique PIN sequence before the engine will start, regardless of whether a thief has your keys.
Unlike traditional alarms or trackers, the Ghost II is a fully hidden car ghost immobiliser integrated into your vehicle’s CAN-bus system. It has no fobs, no radio signals and nothing visible to detect or bypass, making it the closest thing to a guaranteed non-drive-away solution.
Put simply: if the Ghost II is installed, your vehicle cannot be started without you.
Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser in action
The Autowatch Ghost II is engineered to counter the most common modern vehicle theft techniques, including relay theft, key cloning, CAN-bus attacks, OBD port hacking and RF scanning.
These methods rely on intercepting key signals, duplicating key data, or manipulating a vehicle’s internal wiring to authorise a start – often in minutes and without visible damage.
As vehicles become more connected, these silent, tech-led attacks have become the preferred approach for organised car thieves.

How the Ghost II stops modern theft
Unlike traditional security systems, the Ghost II emits no radio signal, leaving nothing for thieves to detect, intercept or exploit.
Even if a criminal gains access to the car or clones the original key, the engine remains locked until a unique, driver-defined PIN sequence is entered using existing vehicle buttons.
By authenticating starts through this secure PIN – rather than key signals – the immobiliser blocks CAN-bus manipulation, prevents OBD reprogramming, and renders relay and RF-based attacks ineffective.
The result? Thieves may get close, or even get inside, but without the correct PIN, the vehicle will not start.
Features of the Autowatch Ghost-II Immobiliser
Most people upgrade security after a break-in.
Installing a Ghost II means you never reach that point.
ECU based Immobiliser
The Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser connects directly to your vehicle’s ECU/CAN system and won’t allow the engine to start without the correct PIN. This gives you true stealth protection that thieves cannot see, access or bypass.
Built In Button Controls
Instead of carrying an extra fob, you simply enter your unique PIN using the buttons already inside your car. It’s quick, discreet and impossible for thieves to guess.
No RF Signals
The Ghost 2 immobiliser emits zero RF signals. That means nothing can be scanned, jammed or intercepted – a huge advantage over traditional alarms and trackers.
Built-in CAN Bus Integration
Because the system works natively with your car’s electronics, there are no bulky modules, no visible wiring and no giveaway parts. It looks and behaves like a factory-fit security system.
Update PIN Anytime
You can update your PIN at any time. If anyone sees your old sequence or your routine changes, simply set a new one in minutes and stay completely secure.
Service/Valet Mode
When handing your car over for servicing, repairs or valet parking, you can activate a temporary mode that allows the vehicle to be moved without revealing your PIN or compromising your Ghost immobiliser security.
TASSA-approved for proven anti-theft performance
The Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser is fully TASSA-approved, meaning it has been independently tested and verified to stop the most common modern theft methods – including relay attacks, key cloning and CAN-bus manipulation. This certification confirms the device meets strict UK security standards and is recognised by many insurers as a premium, high-grade immobiliser.
Most frequently asked questions
What is a Ghost immobiliser and how does it work?
A Ghost immobiliser is a hidden anti-theft system that prevents your vehicle from starting unless a unique PIN sequence is entered. The Autowatch Ghost II Immobiliser connects to your car’s CAN-bus network and blocks the engine from running, even if thieves clone your key or use relay theft tools.
Is the Ghost 2 immobiliser compatible with my vehicle?
Most likely. The Ghost 2 immobiliser is compatible with most modern cars, including performance, hybrid and keyless-entry vehicles. If you’re unsure, contact us and we’ll confirm compatibility with your exact make and model before installation.
Can thieves detect or bypass the Autowatch Ghost II?
No. The Autowatch Ghost-II has no fobs, no LEDs and transmits zero radio-frequency signals, meaning it can’t be scanned, traced or jammed. Because it looks like original vehicle wiring and requires a PIN sequence to start the engine, thieves cannot locate or bypass it.
Where can I get the Autowatch Ghost II installed?
You can book installation at our Derby location or through our vetted nationwide installer network. All installers are trained to fit the Autowatch Ghost II official equipment to manufacturer standards, ensuring correct integration with your vehicle’s CAN system.
