Autowatch Ghost 2 Immobiliser
Ghost 2 Immobiliser Installation Geelong
Protect your vehicle from theft with the Autowatch Ghost 2 immobiliser, the UK’s first aftermarket CAN bus immobiliser that makes your car virtually impossible to steal. Fleet Locksmiths provides professional Ghost 2 installation across Geelong and the Surf Coast, giving you peace of mind with the most advanced vehicle security available today.
What is the Ghost 2 Immobiliser?
The Autowatch Ghost 2 is a revolutionary vehicle security device that works completely differently from traditional immobilisers and alarm systems. Rather than relying on key fobs or visible security measures that thieves can identify and bypass, the Ghost 2 connects directly to your vehicle’s CAN bus system and requires a unique PIN code sequence entered through your existing buttons before the engine will start.
Without the correct PIN sequence, your vehicle simply won’t start. There’s no way to detect the device, no signals to intercept, and no physical components for thieves to locate and remove. The Ghost 2 is completely silent, has no key fobs to clone, and leaves no visible trace of its presence.
Why Geelong Vehicle Owners Need Ghost 2 Protection
Vehicle theft remains a significant concern across Victoria, with organised criminals increasingly targeting popular models using sophisticated relay attacks and key cloning techniques. Modern keyless entry systems, while convenient, have created new vulnerabilities that traditional security measures cannot address.
The Ghost 2 defeats these attack methods because it operates independently of your key fob. Even if thieves manage to clone your key or use relay devices to unlock your vehicle, they cannot start the engine without entering your personal PIN code. This makes the Ghost 2 particularly valuable for protecting high-value and commonly stolen vehicles.
Vehicles We Protect with Ghost 2 Installation
Fleet Locksmiths installs Ghost 2 immobilisers on a wide range of vehicles across Geelong, with particular expertise in European marques that are frequently targeted by thieves.
Our Ghost 2 installation service covers Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Porsche, Land Rover, Range Rover, Jaguar, Ford Ranger, Toyota HiLux, Toyota LandCruiser, Mazda BT-50, Mitsubishi Triton, Holden Colorado, and virtually any vehicle with a CAN bus system manufactured from 2006 onwards.
We specialise in protecting performance vehicles, luxury cars, utes, and commercial fleet vehicles that represent high-value targets for professional thieves.
How the Ghost 2 Works
When you start your vehicle, the Ghost 2 requires you to enter a unique PIN code using buttons already fitted to your car. These might be your steering wheel controls, door panel buttons, or centre console switches. The sequence you choose becomes your personal disarm code, known only to you.
The device communicates through the vehicle’s CAN data network, meaning there are no additional key fobs, no LED indicators, and no audible sounds that could alert a thief to its presence. The Ghost 2 is genuinely undetectable using diagnostic tools because it doesn’t broadcast any radio frequencies.
You can change your PIN code at any time, create a valet mode for service appointments, and even set up an emergency code should you forget your primary sequence. The system also features a service mode that allows mechanics to work on your vehicle without knowing your PIN.
Ghost 2 Features and Benefits
The Autowatch Ghost 2 offers comprehensive protection through its unique design. The device prevents key cloning and relay attacks by requiring physical button input that cannot be intercepted or replicated remotely. Engine start blocking ensures your vehicle cannot be driven away even if a thief gains entry. The weatherproof design means the unit remains reliable in all Australian conditions.
Installation is completely discreet with no cutting of wires required. The Ghost 2 connects to your vehicle’s existing wiring through the CAN bus system, preserving your factory warranty and maintaining the integrity of your electrical system. The compact unit can be hidden virtually anywhere within the vehicle, making it nearly impossible to locate and remove.
The accompanying smartphone app allows you to disarm the Ghost 2 via Bluetooth as you approach your vehicle, providing a seamless experience for daily use while maintaining maximum security when the app is not active.
Professional Installation Matters
Ghost 2 installation requires specialist knowledge of vehicle CAN bus systems and careful programming to ensure reliable operation. Incorrect installation can cause electrical faults, warning lights, or incomplete protection that leaves vulnerabilities for thieves to exploit.
Fleet Locksmiths brings over 13 years of automotive locksmith experience to every Ghost 2 installation. As specialists in European vehicle security systems, we understand the complexities of modern vehicle electronics and ensure your Ghost 2 integrates perfectly with your specific make and model.
Every installation includes comprehensive testing, full demonstration of system operation, and guidance on selecting a memorable PIN code. We also register your device with Autowatch, ensuring you receive full warranty coverage and access to ongoing support.
Ghost 2 Installation Process
Your Ghost 2 installation begins with a consultation to discuss your security requirements and select the optimal button combination for your PIN entry. We assess your vehicle’s CAN bus system and determine the ideal mounting location for the Ghost 2 unit.
Installation typically takes between two and four hours depending on your vehicle. We work at your location across Geelong and the Surf Coast, whether that’s your home, workplace, or other convenient spot within our service area covering Lara, Waurn Ponds, Leopold, Torquay, Ocean Grove, and surrounding suburbs.
Once installed, we walk you through the complete operation of your Ghost 2, including PIN entry, valet mode activation, emergency code setup, and smartphone app pairing. You’ll leave with complete confidence in operating your new security system.
Combining Ghost 2 with Comprehensive Vehicle Security
While the Ghost 2 provides exceptional protection against theft, many vehicle owners choose to combine it with additional security measures for complete peace of mind. Fleet Locksmiths can advise on complementary solutions including steering wheel locks, OBD port protection, and tracking devices that work alongside your Ghost 2 installation.
For high-value vehicles or those at particular risk, a layered security approach creates multiple barriers that deter even determined thieves. We assess your individual circumstances and recommend the most effective combination of measures for your situation.
