i found that my ignition switch had a dirty sensor inside the housing. Took out and cleaned the optical pathway and used cleaner to clean copper contacts which connect/disconnect with the insertion of the key. Now works. Symptoms....inconsistent start and inconsistent turn signal and BAS ESP lights.
Thanks for sharing my contact information in the description Shane. I just want to clarify my pricing. Spare key - This means you have one working key to send me. $110 for the just the programmed fob. $160 for the fob plus emergency key cut. All keys lost $160 includes emergency key. EIS Cloning $500 - includes a used working EIS. Be careful with the small two pin connector on your w210 switches guys. It can be a pain to pull out of the EIS. Many have broken this wire when removing their EIS. It’s the immobilizer wire. You’re car won’t start without this wire.
Hey Shane great video, u r a Miracle worker, I have the same Prob, can u share info on who in California does it for that price, I have my EIS ready to go!!!!!!!
my key stopped working intermittently . now it is not unlocking the doors or being recognized in the ignition. Is my key bad or is it the EIS or something else? I only have 1 key for the car. I suppose I should buy another key but it is $400 at the dealership
What would you expect from someone who charges $120 for 2 keys🤦🏻♂️ that’s not a Toyota pal. No matter it’s old it’s still a Mercedes I don’t touch an EIS for less than $295 for one key and that’s if they hand it to me and I program key.
I just did mine today. Paid $110 with one key. This guy is really good from Whittier, CA. I drove my car to his house and removed the eis and handed a eis and old key to him. he programmed within 30 mins and done. Perfect with a newer style key fob. To cut the mechanical key is additional $ 50 but I refused to do it because I still have a old key. Note, if you don't have old keys or lost, it will cost $240 include a one new key.
Thanks
My wife lost our only key.
Now I am on your channel
Thanks for posting

Hello Shane, just wanted to know who would you recommend?
What's the name of the plastic probe you remover from the eis first? I snapped mine removing it today and have no idea what its' called! HELP
Just lookup ignition lock sleeve remover tool w210
Is he still doing these repairs?

Shop around. You might find someone who can go it for less.
There's many sellers on eBay. I am shipping mine Monday. I'll refer anyone after I see how it goes.
Have you found any other reputable people that will repair these?
Also can you leave the battery connected while you do this?
I haven't found anywhere else.
It's always best to disconnect the battery when messing with any electronics. You can make things worse.
Can you share this guy contact info? I also live in Cali
Great , very good info.
Please share the repair EIS place information?
Address & ph# will big help... Thanks
I listed his phone number in the description

His product works, but he was supposed to refund me and didn't.
And it was $120 for one key
Where are you at I'm in at in Atlanta
295 for one key? That's ridiculous especially for someone to remove and bring it to you. I understand you gotta make money but that's absurd
