This license provides a quick and easy solution to clear the critical error that blocks the electronic steering lock, allowing you to repair the module and if the parts are not fully defected - unlocking the steering wheel will be possible (which will allow easy disassembly of the module from the steering column).
Mercedes-Benz DAS3/FBS3 Key Programming
No additional licenses required, part of the basic AVDI software!
The ABRITES automotive solutions for Mercedes-Benz vehicles allow key programming when in need of additional keys or in all keys lost situations. It is compatible with the ABRITES infra-red (IR) keys and PCBs, 3rd party keys and PCBs, and original keys (some original keys could be renewed using ABPROG).
EZS password extraction by OBD or on a bench allows IR key programming for ALL FBS3 vehicles up to circa MY2016.
EZS password extraction can be done using the ZN076 USB IR Adapter, making the procedure easier and faster.
The password extraction procedure can also be done from a working key with our PROTAG Programmer, or with our special IR adapter (ZN076).
In some cases, the Abrites Distribution Box Set is recommended for a quicker password extraction.
DAS 2/DAS 2B transponder key programming for W163 ML/ R170 SLK/ VITO/ Sprinter is also available.
