Ghost 2 Immobiliser Problems The Ghost immobiliser is a security device that protects your car from key-cloning and hacking. It prevents your car from starting unless certain buttons are pressed in a particular sequence. It can be installed discreetly and connects directly to the CAN data network. This is why it is extremely difficult for criminals to get around and disable it. Frequent Code Missmatch The Ghost immobiliser is an advanced security device that safeguards vehicles from key-cloning, hacking and even key theft. The device is connected to the vehicle's data network CAN and utilizes buttons on the dashboard to create an individual pattern. It is therefore extremely difficult for thieves to get around the system. However, the system is not infallible and can occasionally experience issues that hinder its performance. Frequently mismatched codes may cause the device to lock your vehicle or excessive attempts may drain your battery. In these instances, you'll need to enter a new PIN code in order to unlock your car. Some Ghost installations can also interfer with other systems inside the vehicle and cause unexpected behaviour. In such cases, contact your installer to get assistance. Inconsistent Operation If the device fails to engage or disengage according to expectations, it could be a sign of an issue with the wiring or installation. Alternatively, the problem could be an issue with the software that can be fixed by calling your installer. The Ghost user's manual usually includes a section about the emergency code. This code is typically hidden under the scratch-off area of the card during installation. It's crucial to keep this code in a secure location that is separate from the vehicle. Ghost immobilisers are susceptible to malfunction when people have difficulty entering the disarming sequence correctly. This could be because they have misunderstood or forgotten the procedure. The solution to this problem is to check the device's user manual for information on how to enter the code to disarm. Another issue some people experience is a failure of the system to disable the stop/start feature of the vehicle. This could be due to a software problem unrelated to the Ghost system, or a simple error in the original car system. In either case, you'll need to test the car's stop/start functionality before determining if the Ghost is the culprit. Battery Drain Ghost immobilisers offer peace of mind, as they help to protect your vehicle against theft. Like any security system made aftermarket there are instances when the system may not function properly. You can avoid these issues by taking preventative steps. Battery drain is among the most common problems caused by ghost immobilisers. This is caused by a small current that draws power from the car's batteries. If this isn't discovered right away, it can lead to a sudden and complete loss of power in the vehicle. This could cause the engine to stall in some instances when you try to start it. Choosing a reputable brand of ghost immobiliser or a professional installer that is specialized in car customization can aid in avoiding this issue by making sure that the system is installed correctly and properly maintained. Also, updating the device with the most recent firmware will help you avoid problems like this. Ghost immobilisers also not be able to disable the vehicle's start/stop function. This is most likely caused by an error in the system's setup however it could be due to an issue with your vehicle itself. In these situations it is recommended to contact a local expert to identify and resolve the issue. A reputable company can provide assistance in entering the correct sequence for disarming the ghost immobiliser. This can be a difficult procedure, and is often specific to the model of the vehicle you own. Additionally, the manual of your vehicle could also contain instructions on how to go through the sequence to disarm.

Lost or forgotten PIN code When you install the Ghost Immobiliser into your vehicle, it creates an unique code sequence that is needed to enter before you can start the engine. This is to safeguard your car from thieves who want to use cloned keys or other after-market security devices to trick the system to start the engine. The Ghost is a next-generation device that connects to your vehicle's CAN data network. It makes use of existing buttons on your vehicle (such as the ones on the dashboard or the steering wheel) to create a code sequence that is unique to you. This means it can't be used to steal your vehicle. It's also hidden within your vehicle, and does not have signaling from the radio or LED indicators to reveal its location. This makes it extremely difficult for a professional thief to track down and modify. The ghost is also not detected by thieves who use diagnostic tools to identify alarm or immobiliser systems in modern vehicles, since it doesn't transmit any radio frequency signal. If you've lost or lost the black card that contained your emergency code, there are a variety of options available to you to get it back into the system. You can try to contact the person who installed your device, since they might have a record on file. You can also contact an Ghost authorized dealer. It could be necessary to verify the device and possibly a fee. Remember that the emergency code is entered by using the accelerator pedal. If you're having trouble getting the sequence of disarming right then read the manual provided by your manufacturer and ensure that you know how to enter the code correctly. We recommend that you keep the emergency code in your vehicle in a safe location for easy reference if you need to use it. To avoid these problems make sure that your Ghost is fitted by a qualified fitter. Contact us at Autowatch or Car Keys Solutions to learn more. Unexpected Behavior If you've recently had a Ghost 2 immobiliser put on your vehicle, you may be experiencing strange behavior. While this unique system can help prevent key cloning and hacking, there are some issues that could arise. Unexpected or abnormal behaviour can be a sign of a problem with the ghost immobilise r. Common causes include defective wiring, power supply issues, and incompatibility with other systems. You may also experience a loss of functionality due to firmware updates or programming mistakes. It's best to seek professional assistance if you experience any of these problems. They'll be able to identify the problem and fix it to ensure that your ghost immobiliser functions in a way that is functional again. I own a 2022 Highlander Platinum with the Ghost 2 fitted and I'm having a few issues particularly when in transport mode (which is why I believe it's connected). It's always jumping from park into drive when I put the car into reverse. It won't start until I enter the disarm sequence. When my engine warning light comes on, it is difficult to enter the disarming sequence. I've tried turning off the lights but it does not seem to work either. I'm not sure if it is a compatibility problem or if there's a different method to solve it. When your Ghost immobiliser is in transport mode, it will not communicate with the vehicle's ECU through the CAN data network. This prevents a thief from detecting the distinctive click of an immobiliser relay, and it is impossible to disable this feature. It is essential to use the device only on vehicles that are declared compatible. Make sure that your Ghost immobiliser is installed by a certified technician to avoid problems with the wiring of the device and compatibility with other systems. A reputable installer is able to put in the device without cutting any wires, and will keep records of your installation, which will make it easier to fix problems in the future.
