Ghost 2 Immobiliser Problems The Ghost immobiliser is a security device that protects your vehicle from key-cloning as well as hacking. It works by blocking your vehicle from starting until certain buttons are pressed in a particular sequence. It can be installed discreetly and connects directly to CAN data network. It is therefore difficult for thieves and vandals to get around it. Frequent Code Mismatch The Ghost immobiliser is a high-tech security device that guards vehicles against key-cloning, hacking, and even key theft. The device interacts with your vehicle's data network CAN and utilizes buttons on the dashboard to generate an individual pattern. It is therefore very difficult for thieves to bypass the system. However, the device is not infallible and can sometimes experience issues that impact its performance. Sometimes, mismatched codes can cause the device to shut down your vehicle, or excessive attempts may drain your battery. In these cases you'll need to enter a different PIN code in order to unlock your car once more. Some Ghost installations can also interfere with other systems inside the vehicle, causing unexpected behaviour. In these cases you'll need to speak with your installer for assistance. Inconsistent Operation If the device doesn't engage or disengage in line with expectations, it could be an indication of an issue with the wiring or installation. Alternatively, the problem could be an issue with the software that can be fixed by contacting your installer. A Ghost user's manual will typically include a section about the emergency code. The code is usually hidden in the scratch-off portion of the card during installation. This code must be kept in a separate location from the vehicle. One of the most frequently encountered Ghost immobiliser problems occurs when users have trouble entering the disarm sequence correctly. This is usually due to a misunderstanding or forgetting the procedure. The solution is to refer to the manual of the device's user for instructions on how to properly enter the disarm code. Some people experience issues with the system's inability to disable the stop/start feature of their vehicle. This could be due to an issue with software that isn't related to the Ghost immobiliser or it could be a problem with the original system of the vehicle. In either case, it's important to test the car's stop/start feature before finding out if the Ghost is at fault. Battery Drain Ghost immobilisers offer peace of mind, as they can help safeguard your vehicle from theft. As with all aftermarket security systems, there are times that it might not work correctly. You can avoid these problems by taking preventative steps. Battery drain is among the most frequent issues that is associated with ghost immobilisers. This is caused by an electrical current that drains the battery in the vehicle. If you do not notice it immediately it could cause a sudden loss of power. In some cases, this can even cause the engine to stall when it is trying to start. Choosing a reputable brand of ghost immobiliser or professional installer that is specialized in car customization can assist you in avoiding this issue by ensuring that the system is properly installed and properly maintained. In addition, making sure that the device is running with the latest firmware can aid in avoiding issues like this. Ghost immobilisers may also not be able to disable the vehicle's start/stop feature. This is most likely a result of an error in the system setup, but can also be due to an issue with the vehicle itself. In these situations, it is recommended that you consult an expert local to determine the cause and fix it. A reputable company will be able to help you determine the proper sequence to enter the ghost immobiliser. This can be a confusing procedure, and is usually specific to the model of your vehicle. The vehicle's manual may also include information on how to initiate a disarming sequence. If this doesn't work then you should contact an expert such as Car Keys Solutions to learn the correct method. Lost or forgotten PIN code The Ghost Immobiliser is installed and creates a unique sequence codes that you have to enter before you can turn on the engine. This protects your vehicle from thieves who try to use cloned fobs or other security devices from the market to fool the system into thinking they have a valid key, and therefore allowing the engine to start. The Ghost is a new product that connects to your vehicle's CAN data network. It makes use of the buttons on your vehicle (like those on the dashboard or steering wheel) to let you create a custom code sequence that only you know about, which means it is unable to be used by thieves. It's also completely hidden within your vehicle with no indicators in the form of LEDs or radio signals to give away its location. This makes it very difficult for a professional thief to track down and alter. In addition the ghost is inaccessible to thieves trying to use diagnostic tools to identify alarm/immobiliser circuits in modern vehicles, since it doesn't emit radio frequency signals. There are several ways to enter your emergency code if you have lost or misplaced your black card. You can try calling the installer who installed the device since they might have a record of it, or you can contact an authorized Ghost dealer. This could involve verification procedures and possibly cost. It's also important to keep in mind that the emergency code must be entered by using the accelerator pedal. If you're having trouble entering the sequence correctly be sure to go through the manual of your manufacturer and know how to input the code. We recommend keeping the emergency code outside your vehicle in a safe location to make it easy to find it should you need to use it. To avoid this issue make sure that your Ghost is fitted by a trained fitter. Contact us at Autowatch or Car Keys Solutions to learn more. Unexpected Behavior If you've recently had a ghost 2 immobiliser fitted to your vehicle, you may be experiencing unusual behavior. This unique system is able to stop key cloning or hacking but it also has its own issues. Unexpected or abnormal behaviour can signal a problem with the ghost immobiliser. The most common causes are faulty wiring, power supply issues, and incompatibility with other systems. There could also be an interruption in functionality due to software updates or programming mistakes. If you're experiencing any of these issues, it's best to consult a qualified professional for assistance. They will be able to determine the cause and fix it so that your ghost immobiliser can work again. I have 2022 Highlander Platinum with the Ghost 2 fitted and I'm having a few issues particularly when it's in transport mode (which is why I suspect it's related). It jumps from drive to park every when I put the vehicle in reverse. The car won't start unless I activate the disarm sequence. When my engine warning light is on, it's difficult to enter disarm sequence. I've tried to turn off the lights but it does not seem to work either. I'm not sure if it is a compatibility issue or if there's a different solution. When your Ghost immobiliser device is in the transport mode it is unable to communicate with the ECU of your vehicle through the CAN data networks. This prevents thieves from being able to detect the click of an immobiliser relay, and it's impossible to bypass this feature. This is why it's so important to use the device on vehicles that are identified as compatible. Install your Ghost immobiliser by a qualified technician in order to avoid any problems with the device’s wiring or compatibility with other systems. A reputable installer should be able to install the device without cutting any wires. They will keep records of the installation, making it easier to fix problems in the future.
