MERCEDES VITO W447 NON START ELECTRONIC IGNITION SWITCH MOBILE REPAIR SERVICE A447 900 74 06
We got a call from a customer who was experiencing 1 or more of the usual Fault Symptoms:-
Key Turns, No Dash Lights- You can turn the key in the barrel, but the instrument cluster remains entirely black.
Complete Starting Failure- The key turns fully, but the engine won’t crank or start.
Dead Remote Fob- The vehicle stops responding to any lock/unlock button presses on your remote.
Intermittent Operation- The ignition only catches occasionally, requiring multiple attempts before the van powers up.
A failing Electronic Ignition Switch (EIS/EZS) is quickly becoming common issue across the entire W447 Mercedes Vito range.
When this highly sensitive module glitches, your immobiliser system completely locks up, rendering the van useless.
Standard garages and main dealers will usually inform you that it cannot be fixed, advising you to buy a brand-new unit from Mercedes.
This route is notoriously expensive and time consuming, will also require specialised coding.
We can provide a reliable, cost-effective alternative. Our advanced repair process directly targets and restores the corrupted data & failed electronics inside your original Ignition switch, whilst keeping your factory coding intact.
When memory corruption occurs, standard dealership diagnostic software cannot re-flash or talk to the unit. Our bench-testing rigs are specifically designed to bypass these restrictions.
