[@fredsalter1915]

One of the best diag/repair channels on KZbin!!! Thanks Mario! Please keep them vids coming, sir!!!!

[@bobbywarthan5173]

This was one of the best instructional diag videos for Bens keys I have seen

[@jeremyah78]

Very cool! We would never have dreamed of fixing that key at our shop… and we are a diagnostic focused shop! Gives me something to aspire to! Thanks Mario!

[@sollykhan2385]

For a young guy into advanced Diagnostics, esp on top end car's like Mercedes etc, it is AWESOME, thank you for all the video's you put out, absolute LEGEND, please post more 🙂😇

[@kennedysgarage3281]

I have a no crank no start Mercedes in my workshop at the moment & no key recognition. I’m doing some research & when I see a Super Mario video on it I know it is going to be good information. Thank you for giving me some direction to go 🙏🙏👍

[@adriandeleon392]

What did you do the fix

[@videosenutube]

The shortages that are coming ,wow,we are going to have to be good at fixing stuff;prophetic thoughts. Well done Mario. Learned a lot from you,thank you and God bless.

[@douglasrivera5293]

Thanks for the awesome content Is there a way to check eis functioning with im608 Dealing with W210 02 clk Both keys unlock car Eis wouldn’t turn at all Cluster not showing anything Els not unlocking I tested both keys on Autel both working fine Took eis out and program new key still wouldn’t turn I’m thinking I have to program new eis What do you think

[@760sky9]

The motor in the e.i.s. is probably dead.

Mario very Cool info!! Cheers

[@miguelrizob]

Thank you for the info my car is not starting sometimes and I just notice that battery might be low and the key chip is not being recognized

[@SuperMarioDiagnostics]

A battery won't cause they key to not be recognized. There could be something else going on with either your key or your eis

[@madame1079]

when i insert my key in on c300 it says remove key from ignition.. i took my car to the mechanics and they said they have to replace ignition steering lock and steering column. and i have to pay $1 100 to fix. I wanted to do it myself but it is a lot of things and steps to do and i don't wanna mess my car up..

[@hanabelle2431]

Same thing happening to me on my 2008 C350. Now I'm gonna have to shovel over $1,300.

Hi I have a 2010 Mercedes Vito with intermittent key not been recognised, I’m I right in thinking if I use another Mercedes key not for my car and try it and always get the message key not recognised all the time that pretty much means the EIS is good and my key is the Issue, great videos 😊

[@jordysandino6577]

Good video marito tengo una 2014 sprinter y da ignición pero no arranca . Será que el eis corta el diésel por que le pongo marcha directa del + I solo gira y no arranca . Me ayuda por favor primo ? Muchísimas gracias .

[@AlbertoSanchez-bp4wo]

Great video 👍. Do you have any MB repair shop recommendations in California- San Diego California? Thank you.

[@JdJohnsonone-off]

It's not easy to find info on Merc's period. However this guy know his S 4sure. Excellent info presended as best as you could hope for as this is not easy to understand more/less get across in a video what steps you're going thru in your head. Cheers, glad I found this channel. If I could impose for a question; remote appears dead, When inserted get nothing (don't hear servo for I assume is steering lock &/or shift) no cluster activation either. I am thinking power/fuse, but I am conserned about bunch of after market crap been installed/uninstalled (scotch locks) all about rig. Yeah, not good. Anyway, your thoughts would be fantastic. Thanks

[@jeffk4223]

Just looking forward to the dramas the ev's will bring. What was the matter with just turn your ignition on with a bladed key and start the car?

[@Pablo_Automotive]

Nice job Mario thanks for share

[@matrixcowpaul2194]

good analysis procedure, find out it is the Key cause not cranking, most mechanic suspect it is the ESL or ignition switch problem! (most mechanic would not open the key and check inside the part was lose or banned!)

[@r.weaver3769]

My car came with two keys, one did not work, I took back to dealer and got a new key, this could have been the issue with that key. But I have two keys now, so... Thank you!

[@autotima8974]

Nice useful information thanks very much I have same fault

[@pauliusu]

Hi Mario. Have similar issue. Can you please confirm. When key in not turning to access obd to read need to turn hazards on?

[@javieraviles6314]

Great video

[@GabrielEbenezer-ko2hp]

Wow nice one sir ❤

[@pauljohnson1404]

This is happening to the models that use that system from around those years, EVERYONE report to NHTSA and to MBUSA, they have to fix this for free or a CLASS action will cost them more

[@angelopatafio8347]

I'm looking to figure out how to get the radio to work on a 2012 C300 class it doesn't work at all the instrument that the panel works and everything shows it but can't get sent out of speakers can you help me with that

[@paulmudzingwa8611]

Good day, is the ignition not supposed to be on for you to able to scan, how do you scan when the ignition is off?

[@bigbaychase]

I know this is old. I find you will get the remove key message when the door is open. Nothing when the door is closed.

[@ricar431]

2010 c300 good alternator but not charging is there a fuse or is it the one that goes from the starter en then to the cluster?

[@smoothrider7521]

Awesome thank you 😊

Awesome vid

[@saiautorepairs]

Good video thank you. 😊

[@adgmuniz]

I have a 2010 MB C300 and with the same issue. The car doesn’t turn on. I insert the key and the dashboard pops up “remove key from ignition.” After several attempts in trying to start it, the dashboard changes to only show the mileage. After several attempts the car will eventually turn on but sometimes it takes hours. I only have one key for the car. What do you suggest I do? Thank you!

[@SuperMarioDiagnostics]

Check live data for drive authorization operation

[@jasminelanders3177]

How did you get this fixed?

[@lize-mariedutoit6960]

Hi my w204 c350 2010 starts in the morning when the engin is cold but when it's hit it just crank and wount start but if I put jumpers on it it starts if been to many people and every on tels me a other story dit replaced the glow plug module it was fault my obd picked it up

[@yoknowkyoknow9935]

Hey Mario quick question bro I have a 2006 c55 AmG the positive and negative on battery touched and now I get no start cluster turns on just no crank to start I DO GET “ replace steering lock “ on code reader would that cause the steering lock to not work? Is there anyway to fix or bypass a steering lock ? Please help

[@angelrivera-dy6ur]

pudiese hacerle una pregunta de una llave que perdi y deshabilite la podre poner enable again?

[@Mark-s2v]

Can the im608 reprogram the W209 EIS

[@mikechiodetti4482]

Obviously you've seen this problem before, which is a big plus for your diagnosis. Without the info in front of me, I did somewhat understand your path of diagnostics and how the "start" signal flows from the key to the starter. Would a wiring diagram and/or service information have helped to locate the problem? Or did you take the time on your own to figure out how the system functioned?

[@SuperMarioDiagnostics]

It took having a failure of each component to come to this process Service info does help tremendously. I'll see if i can find if there's anything that spells it out

[@mikechiodetti4482]

@Super Mario Diagnostics Thanks for the reply. Sometimes service info plus your own learned info is necessary.

[@QuincyJackson-x5p]

Hey , I have c300 2008 ,the key is stuck in the ignition and can't be remove . The car is not responding at all ,please help

[@265tom]

Hey love your channel brother, I'm an infiniti tech. Quick question how are you communicating with the car and the keys off? my snap on triton d10 will not communicate with koffeo. Is this a Mercedes thing or special function of the autel?

[@SuperMarioDiagnostics]

Depends on the vehicle. Some vehicles with the hazard lights on will keep the immobilizer systems on, among other systems. I’m pretty sure Infiniti with the hazard lights on will keep the BCM on. it will fill to automatically pull up the Vin number because most vehicles report Vin numbers from the PCM except for Mercedes which will report the Vin number from the EIS. So if you try to bypass the Vin number by manually inputting it, and you still have no communication, try with the hazard lights on. It should communicate regardless of the schedule. If it does not communicate then you have something else going on

[@gabenugent8086]

I have a 2009 C350. I went to the store and came out and the key fob didn't unlock the car but the battery in the fob is fine the red light comes on when I click the buttons on it. Then when I got in the car it wouldn't start it didn't recognize the key it just said the millage. I thought my ignition went bad. But I had a friend come with his key from his w204 and it recognized that it was the wrong key. It's almost like the key is reandomly unpaired. PLS HELP THANKS

[@rohanboswell5408]

Well-done

[@agoodneighborautorepair2176]

Hi 👋Sir, very nice video

[@shamessun]

thank you

[@jojo3sixty]

I Kno this is old but I stick my key in ignition and turn and nothing happens ( the key unlock/lock works ) and I take it out and put it in multiple times and it eventually works. The key is 6 months old and previous owner did a steering lock bypass. Any ideas what it could be? It's a 09 Mercedes C300 sport

[@SuperMarioDiagnostics]

@@jojo3sixty we would need to do some more testing to see if it’s the key, or the emulator. This will require a scan tool that is capable of reading immobilizer related modules

[@jojo3sixty]

@@SuperMarioDiagnostics thanks for the reply. Is it something I can buy? Or I have to take in to a shop. I'm a first time Mercedes owner so not used to not being able to KZbin and fix my own problems

[@johnnyflorescabrera2984]

[@DefiantMongoose]

@Super Mario Diagnostics I have the same Car/Model W204 mine was okay all the way although it didnt Crank at all Then the Tech came and all he did was reInsert the Relays and Fuses in the Front Fuse Box and Reset ECU and it started again. No faults prior and after. What could be the problem? He is hinting thay it could be with the Front Consumer inside the Fuse Box itself that it might have gotten moisture.

[@mercedesbenzcee6738]

Hey Mario my Mercedes S500 2003 key works when I stick it into the car ignition the clusters respond all the lights and radios work still no crank took it to a shop and they said it was ECM computer AFTER A RAIN STORM and drains were clogged.......any thoughts

[@bryanc2174]

Xentry has a test for the drive authorization, works slick. Identifies faulty column locks and eis in seconds.

[@SuperMarioDiagnostics]

Yes I've used it as well. It's great for those who have Xentry. most of my audience does not have it though. anyone can look at live data much faster than that test. So long as they understand the sequence of events from key insert to cranking

[@kva_powerup]

Hi, for this exact same vehicle I have a major issue 1 : after doing an online programing of the ecu and front and rear sam , it suddenly says hood sensor no com and back seat rest latch code comes on ( previously before the online programing no such issue and even the car hood doesn't seem to have Been equipped with any sensor for hood warning for my 2009 w204 ) 2: I try to activate the teach in drive authorization and when it gets to the part when it says start engine and allow to idle for 30secs , the Benz won't start until I turn the key back off and try to start it again before the engine will start which at this time the process fails , I'm using the launch immo elite , also launch pad vii and topdon phoenix plus , yet no success, please I really need your help

Hi there I have a issue with my Mercedes clc cdi 220 2009. When I turn the key full turn to start the car all lights come on and the needles all move up and drop back down again but the car will not crank, I then turn the key back to position 1 then turn to position 2 leave for a few seconds the turn all the way and the car starts. If I'm in traffic crawling sometimes the car cuts out I have had 4 different mechanics do diagnostics and had the crankshaft sensor changes ,I've had the key and switch checked and tested and all is fine. I have spent around £400 so far trying to get to the bottom of this issue but no mechanic can seem to fi d out what the problem is and its getting frustrating now. Have you got experience with these cars and do you do full checks to what can cause a issue like this?

Hey Mario a big thank you I have a family member came to visit what A 08 C300 Went to shopping center car wouldn't start had the car towed to my house I am a Tech worked in many garages but you definitely led me in the right direction I definitely think I will try and get a new key programmed or if you can give me a shout back if you can help me with keys please let me know

Everything was fine before I shut it off , and it wouldn’t start again after

Yes look over drive authorization parameters and perform testing of the starter command circuit
