      I have a 2008 Mercedes Benz C300, I tried to start the car and it said “take your key from ignition “
      I went to a Mercedes dealership and they said they are going to charge me $800 to fix it.
      It is too much for me.
      I want to know is it okay if I only change the ignition switch? Will my car work perfectly then or I have to change steering wheel luck as well? I actually don’t need to luck the steering wheel, if I don’t change it will it be a problem?

    • @JOSEF7011
      @JOSEF7011 4 місяці тому

      It is caused by turning the steering wheel after removing the key. For example, when getting out of the car, you hold onto the steering wheel, the latch locks the steering wheel, but the tensioned steering wheel does not allow the latch to be unlocked. There's even a counter that counts the wrong unlocks, and after a few failed unlocks the steering wheel lock locks up and has to be fitted and a new one programmed. It is possible that you have inadvertently caused the fault yourself :-)

    I watched these videos and shake my head. Most of them on here do it this way. But there is one I found and I did it his way so I know it works. The guy show you how to do this and he only removed the bottom bolts and loosen the top two bolts to allow the steering wheel to be lowerred just enough to work with your hands. Took me literally 15 minutes to remove everything and about the same time to install it back to original form. THE KEY IS YOUR Steering wheel HAS TO BE UNLOCKED

This can be done by a qualified person with the proper equipment on the car or the EIS (ignition swtich) and the key can be sent out to get the emulator programmed. The specific one he is installing can be purchased though the mail for around $120 incuding the emulator, shipping and programming.

      If you think it’s your esl is defect, replacing the ignition switch will not fix it. You ah e to replace the ESL or bypass it with ESL emulator .
      It’s like having an alternator problem then replacing the battery will not fix it .
      Either way, replacing the ignition switch will need programming aswell.

      We already know that the OEM ESL goes bad, so putting the same OEM ESL will go bad and it’s the matter of “when” it will go bad again. And the price of OEM is close to $2k or more
