Do you have a Mercedes key that has suddenly stopped working in the ignition? Does it not turn on the ignition anymore?

A common problem that Mercedes owners often experience is that the key no longer turns in the ignition. This problem is usually caused either by a lousy shifter module, a defective key, a failed Electronic Ignition Switch (EIS), or a bad steering lock module (ESL).

Common faults
Key turns but won’t crank or start
No dash lights when key is inserted or turned
Problems can begin intermittently, and can be temperature related until complete failure

Mercedes ESL ELV Ignition Switch Steering Lock Repair

Applicable Chassis: W169 W245 W202 W203 W208 W209 W210 W171 W639 W906

Product Repair Details

The Mercedes-Benz EIS (ignition switch) communicates with the Key FOB and ESL (electrical steering lock) which are parts of the drive authorization system. Due the sensitive electronics in each of these components they can easily become damaged, often causing no dash lights or no start when turning the key in the ignition. Sometimes the key won’t turn at all or cannot be removed.

With our specialized simulator we will diagnose and test your key FOB, ignition switch and steering lock set. We require at least one key to be sent with your EIS for repair.  Over 95% of ignition switches are repairable and most units are repaired and ready to be returned within 48 hours. This repair also comes with a 12 month unlimited KM warranty*
