Mercedes ML W164, only key stopped worked. Suspicious for damaged EIS (not even start cluster), confirmed, some adapters replaced and solder jobs. Still not started - old key not synchronized with EIS. AKL bench job.

KTP did not even read EIS! Lot of trials...

Here are some tips for reading W164 EIS:

For Key Tool Plus Key Programming Tablet,

1)Try if the tool would read EIS data without Fast Adapter
