Service mode — garages, MOTs, valeting

Service mode temporarily suspends the Ghost so the vehicle can be started without your sequence. Your sequence stays private.

Entering service mode

  1. Switch the ignition on.
  2. Enter your current disarm sequence and wait for the two disarm indication flashes.
  3. Press the service button five times. Five indication flashes confirm that service mode is active.

The vehicle can now be started normally, with no sequence required.

Restoring protection

With the ignition on, enter your current disarm sequence. Two flashes confirm that full protection has been restored. As a safety net, the Ghost re-arms itself automatically after around 30 minutes of continuous driving.

Changing your disarm sequence

  1. Ignition on. Enter your current sequence and wait for the two flashes.
  2. Press and hold the accelerator to the floor, then enter your current sequence again. On some vehicles a different control takes the place of the throttle — see your installation record.
  3. When the indicator flashes once every three seconds, the system is listening. Release the pedal.
  4. Enter your new sequence (4–20 presses) and wait for three flashes, then enter the new sequence a second time.
  5. Two flashes — saved. Four flashes — not accepted; switch the ignition off and start again.

Pairing a phone or tag — Ghost 2/Pro

Pairing your phone

  1. Install the Autowatch Ghost app and tap + to add your vehicle.
  2. Enter pairing mode: ignition on, enter your current sequence and wait for the two flashes. Press and hold the accelerator to the floor and enter your current sequence again.
  3. Press the service button once.
  4. Enter the six-digit code when the app asks.
  5. Your phone now disarms the vehicle automatically when aboard.

Pairing a tag

  1. Enter pairing mode exactly as above.
  2. Press the service button twice.
  3. Hold the button on the tag and insert its battery.
  4. The tag flashes, then shows solid red when paired — the vehicle also gives an indication flash to confirm.

Pairing a phone or tag — Ghost 3

  1. Enter pairing mode exactly as for the Ghost 2/Pro above.
  2. Press the accelerator three times and wait for the indication flash.
  3. Press the accelerator once for a phone, or twice for a tag, then wait for the indication flash.
  4. Press once to pair — or twice to delete an existing pairing.
  5. For a phone, enter the Bluetooth pairing code when the app asks. For a tag, hold the button on the tag and insert its battery.
  6. Wait for the confirmation indication — pairing is complete.

Common questions

Will it drain my battery? No. The Ghost draws a negligible current.

Does it affect my warranty? No. Nothing is cut and no manufacturer system is altered.

Can a garage still service the car? Yes — use service mode.

What if I forget my sequence? Call us. We can reset it for you.

Will my insurer recognise it? Your installation is TASSA registered — tell your insurer.
