Is there a mercedes me9.7 / med17 ecu clone shop in Birmingham I should use instead?

Does Alabama vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Alabama has no mandatory 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 Alabama and federal requirements.
Does the donor ECU need to match exactly?
It should be the same Bosch family and a compatible part number. Send clear photos of both labels and the VIN and we confirm the donor is a valid clone target before writing.
Will a clone hide a real mechanical no-start?
No. Cloning only solves an ECU/immobilizer problem. If the no-start is a sensor, wiring, fuel or mechanical fault, the cloned ECU starts on the bench but the car still won't run - diagnose the root cause first.
