Does North Dakota vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
North Dakota has no statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all North Dakota and federal requirements.
Does this cover my 2006 SLK or 2003 E-Class?
No — those are EIS/FBS3-era cars with the chrome SmartKey fob, which is a different architecture we also service: see the Mercedes EIS key programming and EIS cloning services. This page is for the earlier AAM/DAS generation.
Which module do I send?
On the W163 ML-Class it is the AAM — the All Activity Module. On the classic passenger cars (R170 SLK, R129 SL, W140 S, W461 G) it is the DAS/SKREEM immobilizer unit. Text your VIN first and we tell you exactly which box your car uses and where it is mounted, with pull instructions, before you take anything apart.
