another thing to remember is that for item number 3 there is a difference between right and write:) but seriously this is the best video I’ve watched about reprogramming a mercedes ECU yet. I noticed another person had commented about asking if they needed the original ECU for information. He brought up a good point because every online service I see that offers to clone your original ECU to new donor ECU requires both ECU’s to be sent and if the original ECU was damaged and cant be read you’re required to send the EIS and your key with your donor ECU. Can you please clarify whether or not you need to read any information from the original ECU and then transfer it to the donor ECU or is it just like the video shows and all you need to do is insert the Vin number? 17:25
Great Video my brother. I have a Mercedes Benz SLK 350 2005 with. abad modlule and thee shop wants to charge me $2,000.00 with ordering a new module from Mercedes Benz. I am a computer Tech but I have never considered working on car computers. Thank You soo much for the info.
You have an advatantage. I just consulted a robot engineer yesterday. After consulting him I should him how to use his skillset to the automotive niche as most mechanics are not software savvy
Thanks for a great video; your presentations are absolutely brillant, simple, clear and concise as well as informative; Im glad i came accross this. I actually performed this task upon brainstorming about the logical ways i could implement it. Your process is absolutely smoother. I did it all manually in the immo section of the tool. Since i was at the vehicle at first, I read engine ECU data as well as coding data and saved both of them. Then home office bench set up to renew the module just like you did. Next, i wrote the engine EXU data previously saved by obd Then wrote the VIN Then wrote the coding Then personalized the ECU; this is basically the transfer of antitheft data including key number and ID from the original to the donor Activation is not allowed on bench and must be done by obd so i did. After that i went into diagnostic to check the DAS. All 4 requirements were YES, TP detached, start enable & the first 2 that i cant recall. For me the module was ready to rock n roll; it did not start because the vehicle had a preexisting condition that supposedly blew the original ECU per an alledged electrician say. I believe either, the original ECU was misdiagnosed and wrongly accused of being bad, or the causes of the ECU becoming bad, if it is, is still present as evident by 2 low voltage active dtcs. The client refused to pay for my service; i just told him to have a more competent electrician perform a disgnostic because i knew i made the donor ECU as identical as the original including the number of keys and their key id.
Hey thanks for the Video I have an issue with a Mercedes E300 2014 The Power Electronics Unit has failed basically the Hybrid motor for generating electricity, A new unit is £4,000 + I can get a used unit with Guarantee the for like £500 but have been told it needs Virginizeing before it can be Used I guess exactly as this procedure for the Mercedes ECU I am in the UK any idea of people or places I could try to assist me Best Regards
Hello Curtis, Thanks a lot for the procedures. A lot more videos or renewing DMEs are available but not in that simple terms. I realized in the video the year models were up to 2012 on the S Class. In case the DME / ECU job is for 2013- / newer Merc models, can IM608 help? If not what other tools can help for such scenarios? Can the IM608 perform the teach in procedures for newer model Mercs?
thank you for the video. question, am i plugging in the IM608 via the vehicle's OBDII after the ECM is reinstalled to complete drive authorization steps?
Great content Curtis! I just found your content today and will definitely be watching all of your videos. I understand that you charge for your time however maybe you could give me a tip or possibly pay you for your services if needed? I have a MK906 pro (Subscription expired) hat I tried to code out rear o2 sensors on a CLS55 (off road vehicle) and found myself with ESP issues and lack of communication with modules. My question is, is there any way to correct this easily with the tool? Maybe do the teach in process to correct it? I reverted the settings however the issue still remains. I also have an IM508 that has a current subscription. Any pointers would be great. Thanks!
Does anyone in the Dallas -Ft. Worth area have this devise? The Dealer told me my car, 2004 ML350, can not be fixed. The AAM went out and is now obsolete. Does anyone know a work a round because these computer are specific to each car and you can not substitute used parts. Great body , tires, interior, I need help!?
Hi Curtis, do you do 1 to 1 training? I'm trying to find a reputable company to learn how to do eeprom work and I'm finding it difficult but your videos are clear and consise. Would it be an hourly rate?
Thanks for the information, but I didn't see where you load the original ECU information in the donor, did you transfer it through the tech-in via EZS?
If you need training I suggest you book a session with me. Alternatively, you can contact Autel New York and first see if Autel can do this procedure with your ECU. I
question, can you reset or virginlize a Mercedes Benz 2005 SLK 350? I was told by a shop it can't be done and that I need to buy a new one for $1,000.00. I think it can be done because why would it work on an S Class and not the SLK Class?
Usually what I do for my prospective clients is when I talk with them in my consultations what I will do is find out the VIN and ECU information to get a 100 percent answer. If you dont want to book a consultation you can try asking the supplier who you want to purchase from and see if they can give you that information before you buy.
I just get the new IM608 Pro II but when I try to writing the VIN for 07 S550 and the said this unit does not support writing VIN.... ? cold you help. please
Did you check with your supplier first? I can help you but I charge for customers who I didnt sell to. Im not even sure if the function is available. Maybe give your supplier the VIN and see if they have access to the engineer to verify the function . This is what I recommend my clients before they attempt a procedure.
If its a used one your tool doesnt have the capability to virginize the module. If its a new one then you should be able to program it. Send your supplier the VIN number to make sure you can program year vehicle. This is what I do for my client just to make sure their tool can program the module.
How are you doing Mr. Curtis? This is The Jack I just now Virginize my first ECU Mercedes. I input the Vin number and everything went beautiful. Bought the ECM from eBay, dude I was so excited I need to order one more key so I can go to the car and do the Engine learning procedure. Your client, Volley.
If you have the Im508 and j2534 you will wont be able reprogram the Mercedes benz because the im508 has a basic level of diagnostic software and it doesnt have access to online servers.
Thank you for the information. I just have one question. If they send you the ECU how do you complete the job after renewal and writing of the ECU? Dont you have to have access to the vehicle to complete the job? It looks like you have to be with the vehicle to complete the process. Just a little clarification is needed on that process. Thank you
Yes you would need access to complete the job. They would have to clear the ecu for you and send it back. That’s when you have to do the drivers authorization yourself with a scan tool
A lot of customers like to bargain on Japanese and some domestics cars and I don't good business. I have im508 and xp400pro. Trying looking into specializing in European cars, not easy, but slowly learning.
You should get a mentor. This way I shorten your learning curve and you will get the information you need quicker. Otherwise it will take longer to learn and you might be less confident to take on certain jobs.
This guy sucks can’t even answer a simple question without trying to sell me a course on how to use a tool I dont even have yet also autel customer service sucks too I emailed them more then 5 times asking the same question and no one got back to me it’s annoying and has been over a week now
Sean at 03:55 PM: Hi, I saw your video on how to virginize a Mercedes ECU using the IM608. I was wondering, would I be able to do that with the Xtool D9s Pro? Curtis at 05:00 PM: Hello Curtis here from Autel Consultancy. I would recommend contacting Xtool directly as I don't know the limitations of that tool. Otherwise, you can book a consultation with me, and I'll conduct the research that you're not able to find regarding that tool. Thanks, Autel Consultancy Sean at 08:16 PM: Hi, I messaged you a bit earlier about the Xtool D9s Pro being able to renew ECU. I was wondering, would the Autel IM508 work for the SIM271DE2.0 to renew/virginize the ECU? Sean at 10:02 PM: Hi Sean, Did you make a booking for me to check? Go to Autel.Setmore.com and book the diagnostic tool consultation. This way I can ask you more questions to reveal problems that you didn't think about. Then I will give you a tool strategy that will solve those problems. Then I will send you a proposal and then you have a choice. If you just want to make use of me and my engineering expertise and want to purchase from someone else, you can do that. If you want to benefit from the tool and have me train you on how to use it to speed up your learning curve, then I can sell it to you directly and help you with the procedure. Otherwise, if you feel this is not necessary and just want generic advice, you can call Autel New York tomorrow and see if they can assist you with your question. Keep in mind that I am not affiliated with them, and the information you receive may not be accurate. Let me know if you want me to give you their number or if you want me to assist you. Sean at 12:26 AM: Will this method work with the Autel IM508? (Link to RUclips video) Curtis at 10:18 PM: Hi Sean. Look, you're taking a risk by trying to avoid the consultation. I always tell people not to base a decision on a RUclips video because you could be wasting your money. If you do not want me to give you certainty, contact your local supplier, and they will give you a generic answer. Sean at 10:55 PM: Thanks, but I don't have money to pay for a consultation. I'm just wondering if the tool has the same functionality. I don't have money to buy an IM608 as it's too expensive. If the IM508 doesn't support the feature, a simple yes or no would be helpful. Curtis at 10:58 PM: Hi Sean, I sell this tool, and I offer training to those clients I sell to. There was a time when I didn't charge for my solutions, but after I started to grow, I noticed that people who could not get direct answers from Autel or their supplier of choice would contact me. It got to the point that it was taking me away from my main clients because the framework that I use to give certainty is not a simple process. I get the VIN, ECU Model, etc., and I pass it to my engineer and then relay the information to the customer. If the tool doesn't support it, I will find a cheaper alternative to solve the issue. So, it's not a yes or no answer that I can give you. What you need to do is think logically if the $97 is going to save you time and money or waste your time and money. If you don't need certainty, you can call Autel New York. They will give you a quick yes or no answer. ( I made a presentation specifically for people with your minded.. its called " Don't Be an 'Ask Hole' Why I Charge for Autel Diagnostic Tool Strategies" ruclips.net/video/FlgCeW-73H0/видео.html)
Hello Curtis. This is Kelvin. I recently swapped out an engine and transmission in my 2008 clk 550. Initially, it wouldn’t start but after placing the old ecu on the replaced engine, the vehicle cranked. Unfortunately, it will not move. Is it as simple as programming the ecu that came with the swapped engine or do I need to have the replaced transmission programmed all together? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
@@AutelConsultancy when I said, "I recently swapped," I didn't mean I did it. A friend of mine who is a mechanic performed the swap. He does not work on Mercedes and this part has been a challenge. I'll have to ask him about the scan tools and accessories he has. Should I ask him about some specific tools?
Hi Curtis. I bought the im608 pro from AESwave and then I came across your channel. I want to learn everything this tool is capable of. My question is can I still get a consultation from you or am I ineligible because I bought it from another distributor?
HI Sefo You can book a diagnostic tool consultation with me at auteltech.co.za . Some of my clients who also saw my video when it was too late usually end up sending there tool back and then later purchasing it from me. This way they have access to me on a long term basis and they can truly benefit from their tool
Ihave done this with my IM608 pro . the ECU worked in the car but it got a lot of communication issues ,ABS/ESB is inoperative light is on. i couldn't do online programming as the scn coding fails after the programming is done on my tool . any idea?
When you sat program. Do you mean when you replace a module with a brand new one and you need to install the software calibration file into the new module?
Hey Lou. Thanks for compliment. Yes , I think you have my details still? To make it easier you can book an existing client session at a time thats good for you. Thanks
I don't mind so much paying MB for the new ECM or module, whatever I may need. I just refuse to let the crooks in the service dept. touch anything I own ever again. NOT just MB either, any dealer, as I've yet to find an honest dealership.
Hello, You need to apply my friend if you want me to consult you. I very selective who I take on and in order for me to ensure you have the right tool strategy i need to consult you first . If you want certainty and results with the tool package I put together for you , go to my website auteltech.co.za and book the diagnostic consultation.
I had to replace the ECU in my e-Class recently and came across this issue of not being able to fit a 'used' ECU from another car. I would be interested to know what people should be charging for virginising Mercedes ECUs so they can be used again? I solved the problem by moving the eeprom from my old ECU to the new one. I de-soldered the immobiliser chip and physically moved it into the replacement ECU. Worked fine.
Got a question I have a autel maxicom mk908 pro and want to virginize and code a 08 mercades cl550 I want to know if it’s even possible I saw you do it with the im608 but my tool is having a problem with the program log and said it sent it to autel but the tech support lady is clueless and can’t even answer my question thanks
Thanks for sharing your valued knowledge Curtis. I am in Australia (RHD) and have a 2005 Mercedes CLK500 C209. The ECU and SAM have been water damaged. I have purchased used units with the same codes. Could you please advise the procedure to clone them to the vehicle? If too involved online or payment is required, I could contact you directly or can provide my contact details. Regards, Graeme
Will this process work without the g-box? Is the process similar with ABS unit? Is the access log in pin free provided you have active subscription? Lastly, is the process similar for a VW? Regards
Awesome. how do i use my IM608 to program a used ecu (same part number) on a mitsu outlander 2018 that has a no start problem? have also bought a used ETACS. Vehicle key is the blade type
Thank you sir for the vedio. Learning. My question is ( Do you not have to clone the data from the original ecu, so that you learn it to the donor ecu?
Hello, I found out a lot from your videos, I have IM508. I have a question, what could you recommend as a voltage backup for bmw encoding that need 13V? Regards
Great presentation as always . I see the J2534 is required for this operation . Will other non-autel J2534 devices work as substitute in process? and if its only the Autel J2534 that works , will it work with the IM508 ?
I always enjoy videos, very knowledgeable tech guy, I can vouch for that as you would help me out in the past when purchasing my autel from you,, but one question will the ultra do the same here as the IM 608
Hi Scott. I hope your doing well. The ultra doesnt have the Im608 immo functions. You would need to use the im508 and G-box to do the renew process of the ECU and the Write Vin. Then you can use the Ultras do the teach in authorization procedure .
I am new to using used module, so I may have missed something. What about the software and coding for the particular car that that module is going into? Doesn't it have to be corrected? Thank you for your videos!
Hi Curtis I am Ulrich from Congo I'm very excited the way u explaining yr training course makes me I understand everything clear, I am a student still, and yr training making me to understand many things from im608, when I'm going to be ready I will order a better tool from u Mr thanks so much kindness, I will always follow yr training courses until I get there
You would would need a different tool to do this procedure. If you need help figuring out which way to go to auteltech.co.za and click the diagnostic tool consultation service
Hi Guerra. I hope you doing well. If your serious want want me to align you with the right tool you should book an appointment with me at auteltech.co.za and click the diagnostic tool consultation. Its going to take me 45 minutes for me to run my framework and explain the limitations of each tool. Alternatively if you dont want certainty you can all Autel new York
another thing to remember is that for item number 3 there is a difference between right and write:) but seriously this is the best video I’ve watched about reprogramming a mercedes ECU yet. I noticed another person had commented about asking if they needed the original ECU for information. He brought up a good point because every online service I see that offers to clone your original ECU to new donor ECU requires both ECU’s to be sent and if the original ECU was damaged and cant be read you’re required to send the EIS and your key with your donor ECU. Can you please clarify whether or not you need to read any information from the original ECU and then transfer it to the donor ECU or is it just like the video shows and all you need to do is insert the Vin number? 17:25

You have an advatantage. I just consulted a robot engineer yesterday. After consulting him I should him how to use his skillset to the automotive niche as most mechanics are not software savvy
Thanks for a great video; your presentations are absolutely brillant, simple, clear and concise as well as informative;
Im glad i came accross this. I actually performed this task upon brainstorming about the logical ways i could implement it.
Your process is absolutely smoother. I did it all manually in the immo section of the tool.
Since i was at the vehicle at first,
I read engine ECU data as well as coding data and saved both of them.
Then home office bench set up to renew the module just like you did.
Next, i wrote the engine EXU data previously saved by obd
Then wrote the VIN
Then wrote the coding
Then personalized the ECU; this is basically the transfer of antitheft data including key number and ID from the original to the donor
Activation is not allowed on bench and must be done by obd so i did.
After that i went into diagnostic to check the DAS. All 4 requirements were YES, TP detached, start enable & the first 2 that i cant recall.
For me the module was ready to rock n roll; it did not start because the vehicle had a preexisting condition that supposedly blew the original ECU per an alledged electrician say.
I believe either, the original ECU was misdiagnosed and wrongly accused of being bad, or the causes of the ECU becoming bad, if it is, is still present as evident by 2 low voltage active dtcs.
The client refused to pay for my service; i just told him to have a more competent electrician perform a disgnostic because i knew i made the donor ECU as identical as the original including the number of keys and their key id.
Hi boss just a quick question On the im608 tool does it program with all the modules on the Mercedes.. I’m looking for the right tool

If you don't need certainty, you can call Autel New York. They will give you a quick yes or no answer.

Can the im508 do something like this 😫
Hello Curtis. This is Kelvin. I recently swapped out an engine and transmission in my 2008 clk 550. Initially, it wouldn’t start but after placing the old ecu on the replaced engine, the vehicle cranked. Unfortunately, it will not move. Is it as simple as programming the ecu that came with the swapped engine or do I need to have the replaced transmission programmed all together? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Which tools do you have?
@@AutelConsultancy when I said, "I recently swapped," I didn't mean I did it. A friend of mine who is a mechanic performed the swap. He does not work on Mercedes and this part has been a challenge. I'll have to ask him about the scan tools and accessories he has. Should I ask him about some specific tools?
I have im508 with gbox2 and xp400pro, can the “teach and drive” process be done with my set up?
Thankx
Can autel im506s do it
Hi Curtis. I bought the im608 pro from AESwave and then I came across your channel. I want to learn everything this tool is capable of. My question is can I still get a consultation from you or am I ineligible because I bought it from another distributor?
HI Sefo You can book a diagnostic tool consultation with me at auteltech.co.za . Some of my clients who also saw my video when it was too late usually end up sending there tool back and then later purchasing it from me. This way they have access to me on a long term basis and they can truly benefit from their tool
Ihave done this with my IM608 pro . the ECU worked in the car but it got a lot of communication issues ,ABS/ESB is inoperative light is on. i couldn't do online programming as the scn coding fails after the programming is done on my tool . any idea?
can you come and program ecm can you program this vehicle with the IM508 pro?
When you sat program. Do you mean when you replace a module with a brand new one and you need to install the software calibration file into the new module?
I mean can you you do exactly what you did in this video with the Autel IM508 ? or do i need a IM608 ?

@@pinpointautodiagnosticsene9655 you mean with the engine on?NO.
Great video. Been looking for the autel product that would do this, hope you are doing well my friend.
Maybe we can do another chat soon?
Lou
Hey Lou. Thanks for compliment. Yes , I think you have my details still? To make it easier you can book an existing client session at a time thats good for you. Thanks
Good work from keep it up from George
508 function same
Enjoyed the moment
I don't mind so much paying MB for the new ECM or module, whatever I may need. I just refuse to let the crooks in the service dept. touch anything I own ever again. NOT just MB either, any dealer, as I've yet to find an honest dealership.
Hi my good friend, I really enjoyed the video but I got a question still, please what is the PROGRAMMING/CODING option actually used for
Can I Buy all this in a kit together? can you send me a link with a discount ?
Hello, You need to apply my friend if you want me to consult you. I very selective who I take on and in order for me to ensure you have the right tool strategy i need to consult you first . If you want certainty and results with the tool package I put together for you , go to my website auteltech.co.za and book the diagnostic consultation.
I have a IM608 and gbox
sorry 4E28B mask
Good to know...thank you!!
I had to replace the ECU in my e-Class recently and came across this issue of not being able to fit a 'used' ECU from another car. I would be interested to know what people should be charging for virginising Mercedes ECUs so they can be used again? I solved the problem by moving the eeprom from my old ECU to the new one. I de-soldered the immobiliser chip and physically moved it into the replacement ECU. Worked fine.
Got a question I have a autel maxicom mk908 pro and want to virginize and code a 08 mercades cl550 I want to know if it’s even possible I saw you do it with the im608 but my tool is having a problem with the program log and said it sent it to autel but the tech support lady is clueless and can’t even answer my question thanks
Thank you for a good work.please can you show me how to program a used 2015 evoque transmission control module.
thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing your valued knowledge Curtis. I am in Australia (RHD) and have a 2005 Mercedes CLK500 C209. The ECU and SAM have been water damaged. I have purchased used units with the same codes. Could you please advise the procedure to clone them to the vehicle? If too involved online or payment is required, I could contact you directly or can provide my contact details. Regards, Graeme
Great Video.. May I ask you if an Autel DS808 can be used to viginised a Shifter Module DSM from Mercedes Benz. Thanks
Thanks
Will this process work without the g-box?
Is the process similar with ABS unit?
Is the access log in pin free provided you have active subscription?
Lastly, is the process similar for a VW?
Regards
Slow and clear explanation.
Really good video.
Thank you!!!.
Wowww very good can autel im608 benz transmission used ecu chang and program ?
Great class as usual Curtis can I use the 508 for this procedure
Yes, absolutely! You can do the bench procedure with your IM508 and gbox2 then the coding procedure "Teach in drive authorization " with your elite
Awesome. how do i use my IM608 to program a used ecu (same part number) on a mitsu outlander 2018 that has a no start problem? have also bought a used ETACS. Vehicle key is the blade type
Thank you sir for the vedio. Learning.
My question is ( Do you not have to clone the data from the original ecu, so that you learn it to the donor ecu?
Hello, I found out a lot from your videos, I have IM508. I have a question, what could you recommend as a voltage backup for bmw encoding that need 13V? Regards
Can a new ecu be cloned?
Great presentation as always . I see the J2534 is required for this operation . Will other non-autel J2534 devices work as substitute in process? and if its only the Autel J2534 that works , will it work with the IM508 ?
Hello,
Thanks for the video. Can IM 608 do the same with other car brands? Thank you
I always enjoy videos, very knowledgeable tech guy, I can vouch for that as you would help me out in the past when purchasing my autel from you,, but one question will the ultra do the same here as the IM 608
Hi Scott. I hope your doing well. The ultra doesnt have the Im608 immo functions. You would need to use the im508 and G-box to do the renew process of the ECU and the Write Vin. Then you can use the Ultras do the teach in authorization procedure .
@@AutelConsultancy thanks,, I know anytime I have a question like that you can always find answer
I am new to using used module, so I may have missed something. What about the software and coding for the particular car that that module is going into? Doesn't it have to be corrected? Thank you for your videos!
So happy I found this channel. New sub for sure. Learning my 608 pro as fast as possible
Nice
Awesome
Can we do this on autel maxisys ultra?
I dont think so
Hey sir, can I carry on this same process on TCM programming
Buenas,,, mi nombre es Gercy,, y quiero saber si venden el im autel 608
Can this be done with an ultra ev
No but the Ultra kits I sell comes with a tool that does .
Do you need to pay subscription (or be online ) to do virgin ? Please advise
Hi Curtis I am Ulrich from Congo I'm very excited the way u explaining yr training course makes me I understand everything clear, I am a student still, and yr training making me to understand many things from im608, when I'm going to be ready I will order a better tool from u Mr thanks so much kindness, I will always follow yr training courses until I get there
Love your videos man I been watching them all

Hello can I used these tools for a 2004 s230 mercedes
