The code is entered by through buttons on the vehicle like those on the steering wheel, the centre console or door panels and only you will know the pin code. The unit detects vibrations, contact, damage, or even attempts to enter your vehicle.
The device is then connected to the vehicles CAN data network. It will only allow the engine to start if the correct pin code is entered. This means that thieves cannot simply insert an additional key or replace the ECU because it won't recognize the modifications. It is also designed so that it can't be detected by tools for diagnosis or hacking via radio signals.

This is the most secure security for your Range Rover from hacking and other methods of modern-day vehicle theft.

This means a thief will need to work for hours to find the correct combination of buttons to steal your vehicle.
The device can be installed in any part of your vehicle due to the CAN network. The unit does not emit any signals, which means thieves cannot use sophisticated RF scanning or code-grabbing technologies to locate it. A thief cannot detect the click of a traditional relay since it communicates directly with the ECU via the data bus.
Lastly lastly, the Ghost isn't equipped with LEDs or key-fobs that signal its presence. Additionally, it's also sealed to ensure that it can't be removed or damaged. It's also small enough to be wrapped into the vehicle harness, to ensure that it is not easily spotted by criminals trying to disable it through cutting wires or removing the harness.
The Ghost is a tried and tested method to safeguard your Range Rover against key-cloning, key theft and hacking. The Ghost is not a substitute for other methods of defence, such as parking the Range Rover in a driveway or garage if possible. This makes it harder for thieves to steal it.

The system is discrete and unnoticeable to thieves since it doesn't emit any kind of signal, unlike other systems that use LEDs or key-fobs.
