BMW Ghost Immobiliser
The Ghost uses the CAN data bus to communicate with your vehicle. This prevents thieves from putting in a new key or even replacing the ECU to get around your security system because it requires a correct PIN code to begin the engine.
The Ghost is different from other immobilisers because it does not use key fobs or LED indicators. It uses the buttons on your vehicle to allow you to to enter a unique sequence of disarming that you can only remember.
Stop & Start
If you’ve previously driven a BMW or used its stop-start feature you may have noticed the engine continues to run for 30 seconds after you release the brake pedal. This is due to the BMW engine management system continuing to monitor your vehicle for a signal from the ignition key, and if this signal is detected, it will keep running. The Autowatch 2 Ghost is a device that can stop this by stopping the vehicle whenever you hit a button.
Our BMW ghost immobiliser is a revolutionary next-generation device that doesn’t require cutting OEM wires or installing an aftermarket alarms and key fobs. It is connected to the BMW CAN data network and is programmed with an unique PIN code which is accessed by buttons in your car. This lets you enter a specific key push sequence that is not present in the standard menus for media, like volume up/down and source, cruise control or air conditioning on and stops your car from starting unless it is entered. The PIN can be between 4 and 20 characters, making it hard for thieves to figure out.
We can also add to the system the service/valet mode. This mode is activated when your vehicle is being maintained so that the Ghost is kept from view by the garage. This can be achieved by pressing the service button on your infotainment system 5 times (the system will flash to confirm this) and when you return the Ghost will re-arm automatically.
