What is a Ghost Immobilliser? How does it work?
The Ghost Immobiliser is an aftermarket security system for your vehicle.
The Ghost Immobiliser works by preventing your engine to start unless certain buttons within your car are pressed in a specific sequence, this can be from the steering wheel, the door panel or the central console. This sequence is set by the user & can be changed if needed.
The device is installed in such a way that it can not be seen, so you have the added benefit of stealth which can prevent anyone from trying to tamper with it. The device only takes seconds to use, yet can save you countless hours of looking for your vehicle if it is ever attempted to be stolen.
Additional features of the Ghost Immobiliser:
- Undetectable by thieves using diagnostics: The Ghost Immobiliser has no circuit cuts, meaning it cannot be detected by modern methods employed by a thief.
- No radio frequencies: Thieves cannot use sophisticated RF scanning or code-grabbing technology to detect what security device your vehicle has when it does not transmit any signals like conventional security systems.
- No more key cloning: Due to the personalised PIN you can create with the Ghost Immobiliser, if thieves have cloned keys to your vehicle, it will be impossible for them to start it because they won’t know your PIN code.
- Tested for each vehicle: Due to the nature of the data bus communication the Ghost Immobiliser has been adapted and tested for every vehicle we list as compatible, click this link to see our list of compatible vehicles.
- PIN Reset: On the occasion, your pin is forgotten, your car is sold, or a button in your PIN sequence is broken, there is a secure, reset code for each immobiliser. There is also an option to change your pin, whenever you feel like it.

are ghost immobilisers better than a car alarm?
Yes. This is because not only will the ghost immobiliser alert you, but it will prevent the thief from moving the car at all.
How to install Ghost Immobiliser
Installing a Ghost Immobiliser is very tricky, especially for someone who has no experience installing car alarms, the reason for this is due to the fact you have to hide your Ghost Immobiliser in your vehicle, which would mean removing another piece of your vehicle’s interior to find a suitable spot to install.
Additionally, Ghost Immobilisers are connected to your vehicle’s electrics, which means any mistake you make could compromise the rest of your car’s’ electrical circuits and functionality.
We do not recommend this for anybody who has no experience in installing these systems.

What do thieves use to break into cars?
As technology develops, there may very well be more methods of disabling a car alarm, but here are three that are generally used.
Keyless entry manipulation
Cars with keyless entry are sometimes victims of thieves who employ technology that manipulates the signal of your key in order to enter your vehicle. This can be used even if you are inside your home. A Faraday box/pouch can block these signals.
Cutting wires
Some thieves opt for the traditional route of breaking into your vehicle and disabling the wiring needed for the alarm to work. This means they have a deeper knowledge of your vehicle to do this in the first place. In instances like this, parking in a well-lit, secure area or around CCTV will hopefully be enough of a deterrent.
Key Cloning
Key Cloning is a sophisticated process in which your key is duplicated in order to bypass the vehicle’s security system & locks etc. There are ways you can prevent this such as not letting people drive your vehicle without you around, or giving your keys to others generally.
