🛠️ MERCEDES ML & GL (2009–2012) EIS IGNITION REPAIR SERVICE

Expert Repair for W164 & X164 Electronic Ignition Switches


✨ SERVICE OVERVIEW

Professional repair service for the Electronic Ignition Switch (EIS/EZS) in Mercedes-Benz ML and GL models. These specific years (2009–2012) frequently experience internal electronic failures that prevent the vehicle from recognizing the key.

Instead of paying the dealership for an expensive replacement and "Orange" programming key, we provide a cost-effective solution. We can repair your original module, making it a 100% plug-and-play solution.


✅ COMPATIBLE PART NUMBERS

This service is specifically designed for EIS modules with the following part numbers:

  • 164.905.1500 (1649051500)

  • 164.545.1808 (1645451808)

  • And other related ML/GL/R-Class chassis part numbers.


🚨 COMMON SYMPTOMS OF FAILURE

If your vehicle exhibits these signs, your EIS module likely needs repair:

  • Key Not Recognized: You insert the key and hear no "click" or electronic engagement.

  • No Dashboard Lights: Turning the key to the "ON" position results in a dark cluster.

  • Intermittent Starting: The car starts occasionally, but often requires multiple attempts.

  • No Crank / No Start: The key turns physically, but the engine does not turn over.

  • "Insert Key" Message: The dashboard keeps asking to insert the key even when it is already in the ignition.
