The Basics of Immobilisers and Effective Alarms
What is an Immobiliser?
An immobiliser is an electronic device that prevents a vehicle’s engine from starting without the correct key or token. It works by disabling crucial components such as the fuel pump, starter motor, or ignition, making it difficult for thieves to start the vehicle without the proper key.
What Makes an Alarm System Effective?
While most people are familiar with vehicle alarms, it’s important to understand the features that make them effective. Modern alarm systems typically include sensors that detect movement, impact, or attempts to open doors or windows. Advanced systems can send notifications to the owner’s phone, provide GPS tracking, and integrate with other security measures to offer comprehensive protection.
