Key Programming and SCN Coding in Huntington Beach, CA
Factory Xentry access to cut, program, and code keys most independent shops have to send out.
Key programming and SCN coding in Huntington Beach gets your Mercedes Sprinter a working spare, a replacement for a lost key, or a corrected module after a repair.

Frequently asked questions
Why can most shops not program a Sprinter key?
Mercedes key and immobilizer work requires factory Xentry with active online SCN access and security approval. Most independent shops in Orange County lack that access, so they send the van to a dealer. We do it in-shop.
Can you make a key if I lost all of them?
Yes. All-keys-lost programming is possible with factory tools. We verify ownership, then program a new key to your VIN and immobilizer so the Sprinter starts and drives.
Do I need coding after replacing a control unit?
Usually yes. Modules like the EIS, SAM, or engine controller must be SCN coded to your VIN so they match your van's equipment and communicate over the CAN network.
