What is Can Phantom?
CAN Phantom Immobiliser – Ultimate Vehicle Theft Protection
The CAN Phantom Immobiliser is a next-generation, ultra-secure vehicle immobilisation system designed to prevent modern vehicle theft, including key cloning, keyless entry theft (relay attacks), and ECU swapping. Engineered and manufactured in the UK, it offers discreet, digital protection that renders your vehicle virtually undriveable without the correct user authentication.
How It Works
The CAN Phantom connects directly to your vehicle's CAN Bus system (Controller Area Network), allowing it to interact intelligently with the vehicle’s onboard computer. Unlike traditional alarms or tracking systems, it doesn’t rely on key fobs, RFID tags, or remote control signals that can be intercepted or cloned. Instead, it uses a user-defined PIN code sequence entered via your car’s existing buttons or controls (such as the steering wheel, dashboard, or centre console buttons) before the vehicle can be started.
Without the correct PIN sequence:
- The engine will not start.
- Gear selection may be disabled (on automatics).
- The vehicle remains immobilised – even if the thief has the keys.
Key Features
- Undetectable to Thieves
- The Can Phantom has no LED indicators, key fobs, or external wires that give away its presence. It’s hidden deep within the vehicle, making it nearly impossible for thieves to locate or bypass.
- CAN Bus Integration
Fully integrated with the vehicle’s CAN Bus system for seamless operation. It uses the car’s own internal communication network to disable key functions, offering smart, invisible protection.
- Unique PIN Code Entry
Set your own unique PIN code using a combination of buttons already in your vehicle. This code must be entered before the vehicle will start, even if a thief has your keys.
- Secure Emergency Override
In case you forget your code or need to reset it, the Can Phantom has a secure override system, which can be completed by an approved installer.
- Service & Valet Modes
Temporarily disable the system when handing the vehicle over for servicing or valet parking, without compromising long-term security.

Proudly built in the UK with rigorous quality control standards. Supported by UK-based technical support and installation partners.

Why Choose CAN Phantom Over Other Immobilisers?
The CAN Phantom offers a more advanced, harder-to-detect solution than traditional immobilisers. Because it doesn’t rely on external devices, it's completely silent and hidden, making it a favorite among owners of luxury vehicles, fleet managers, and anyone serious about vehicle security.
