While technology has made driving more convenient, it has also handed thieves a new set of tools. Today, a high-tech thief can clone your key or hack your car\u2019s CANbus system in seconds without ever breaking a window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>At Immobilised, we believe the only way to stop a digital thief is with a physical solution.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Man Behind the Circuit<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My name is Rod Willard, and I\u2019ve spent nearly five decades under the bonnets of almost every make and model on Australian roads. With <strong>two trade certificates<\/strong> and <strong>45  years of hands-on automotive experience<\/strong>, I\u2019ve seen the industry shift from simple mechanical locks to complex digital networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I started <strong>Immobilised<\/strong> because I saw a gap in the market. Most modern security systems are &#8220;plug-and-play&#8221;\u2014they are installed in the same predictable locations and rely on the car\u2019s own computer (the CANbus) to work. If a thief can <strong>hack<\/strong> the computer, they can bypass the security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>I knew there was a better way.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/shorts\/1h6TKnVOqQw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"448\" height=\"796\" src=\"https:\/\/immobilised.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-48\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.5628190931897653;width:167px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/immobilised.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-3.png 448w, https:\/\/immobilised.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image-3-169x300.png 169w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 448px) 100vw, 448px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Watch a Brief Can Bus Video on Youtube<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"mailto:info@immobilised.au\"><strong>Contact me today<\/strong> <strong>via email<\/strong><\/a>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/m.me\/immobilised\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Message on Facebook Messenger<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Immobilised Difference<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I designed and manufactured the <strong>Immobilised<\/strong> system to be different. It\u2019s not just a gadget; it\u2019s a master-crafted security solution that goes back to basics where it matters most:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Non-CANbus Reliance:<\/strong> My system doesn\u2019t &#8220;talk&#8221; to the car\u2019s computer. It physically cuts power to a vital component. You can\u2019t hack a circuit that isn\u2019t there.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Almost Impossible to Clone:<\/strong> Our remotes require physical access to the main unit for programming. A thief can\u2019t &#8220;sniff&#8221; your signal from the driveway and clone your remote. If they don\u2019t have physical access, they don\u2019t have a chance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Truly Custom Installs:<\/strong> Because our units are ultra-small and I personally handle the manufacturing and installation, no two installs are the same. We don\u2019t follow a manual that thieves have already read.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Australian Made &amp; Owned:<\/strong> Based in Perth Western Australia, designed for Australian conditions, and built for the vehicles our community loves most -from high-performance cars to the workhorses of our trades.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. What makes Immobilised different from other aftermarket systems?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most modern &#8220;digital&#8221; immobilisers communicate via your car\u2019s <strong>CANbus<\/strong> (the vehicle&#8217;s internal computer network). While effective, they can sometimes be bypassed if a thief hacks the network directly. <strong>Immobilised<\/strong> does not use CANbus. It is a physical, hard-wired break in a vital circuit. You can&#8217;t &#8220;hack&#8221; a wire that isn&#8217;t connected.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Can your remote controls be &#8220;cloned&#8221; like a factory key fob?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No. Most car thefts today happen via <strong>Relay Attacks<\/strong>, where thieves &#8220;sniff&#8221; and amplify your key\u2019s signal from outside your house. Our remotes are different. They must be physically programmed at the main unit inside the car. This &#8220;physical handshake&#8221; means a thief cannot clone your remote from the driveway; they would need to already be inside your car with the unit in their hands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. What exactly is a &#8220;non-CANbus&#8221; immobiliser?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of the CANbus as the car&#8217;s central nervous system. Modern thieves use gadgets to send &#8220;start&#8221; commands through that system. Our system bypasses the &#8220;nervous system&#8221; entirely. We install an ultra-small physical switch on a vital engine component. Unless our unit gets the signal from your specific remote, that component simply has no power, and the car stays dead.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Is the unit easy for a thief to find and bypass?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve designed our units to be <strong>ultra-small<\/strong>, making them incredibly easy to hide in places a thief would never think to look. Because I have 45 years of automotive experience, I don\u2019t follow a &#8220;standard&#8221; install manual. Every installation is truly custom and unique to your vehicle, leaving no predictable pattern for a thief to follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Will this void my new car warranty?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Australia, the ACCC states that a manufacturer cannot void your entire warranty just because you\u2019ve had an aftermarket part fitted. However, the installer (us) is responsible for the quality of that specific work. With two trade certificates and 45 years of experience, our wiring is professional grade and designed to integrate safely without interfering with your car\u2019s factory systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>6. What happens if I lose my remote?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because our system is built for high security, you cannot simply buy a generic remote online and pair it. You will need to contact us. We can&#8217;t provide a replacement remote or guide you through the secure, physical re-pairing process. We will need to attend and program the remote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>7. Can this be installed on older vehicles as well as new ones?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Absolutely. In fact, because we don&#8217;t rely on complex computer networks, our system is perfect for everything from a 1970s classic to a brand-new 2025 Toyota HiLux. If it has a vital electrical component, we can immobilise it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pricing &amp; Packages<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every vehicle is different, and every security threat is unique. That\u2019s why we don&#8217;t sell &#8220;one-size-fits-all&#8221; boxes. We provide a master-installed security solution tailored to your vehicle&#8217;s specific wiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1.
