What is a Ghost Immobiliser and How Does it Work?

In this article, we will introduce you to the Ghost Immobiliser, explaining how it works, its installation process, and the best places to purchase it.

The Ghost Immobiliser models from the 5th and 500th series are designed to provide advanced and reliable vehicle protection against theft or hijacking. Depending on the modification, the package may include radio tags and a wireless pLine blocking relay. All devices support the PINtoDrive function, allowing the driver to enter a PIN code using the vehicle’s standard buttons.

Beyond theft prevention, Ghost Immobilisers come with numerous additional comfort features, such as automatic window closure when the car is locked, central locking activation upon movement, and many others.

Let’s delve into what a vehicle immobiliser is, how it functions, and why it is essential. An immobiliser is a type of anti-theft device commonly found in modern vehicles, often pre-installed by manufacturers. Typically, an immobiliser works by interrupting the vehicle’s electrical circuits, preventing it from being started without authorisation. The vehicle owner usually activates or deactivates the immobiliser using a dedicated key. Now that we understand what an immobiliser is, let’s discuss its purpose in more detail.

Installing an Immobiliser

How an Immobiliser Works

A standard immobiliser consists of a control unit and a corresponding key. To use the system, you need to purchase both the immobiliser unit and its key. In addition to factory-fitted immobilisers, it is possible to install an additional one featuring an electromagnetic relay. In this case, the immobiliser works by breaking the vehicle’s electrical circuits when unauthorised access is detected.

Factors Affecting Immobiliser Pricing

The cost of an immobiliser depends on its design and functionality. Installing an immobiliser is a crucial step in securing your vehicle. You can find various reviews online that highlight the effectiveness of these devices. Numerous discussions on automotive forums provide insights on how to check an immobiliser, what a keyless bypass module is, and which immobilisers rank among the best.
