why not reball and solder it to the original key fob ? why use donor ?

@Neo_AIO 14 күн бұрын

maybe for efficiency, you regall the chip resolder it and surprise! still doesn't work because some other issue. you take a working fob and solder the chip on it to rule out any other issue and to avoid having to put thermal strain on the chip, because if you make too many thermal cycles it might break.

original one seems to have ripped traces where chip seats.

@david.thomas.108 14 күн бұрын

I guess if something else is wrong with the board then putting the firmware chip on a different known good donor board is more likely to fix it.

I believe that original key with the coil is for "keyless go" for cars with push to start, automatically locking unlocking door handles. For some modles, mercedes doesn't offer keyless go replacements. End of life. You should be charging a premium for keyless go as it is a rare Option on early models.of those 500 donor fobs, you may only have a dozen with keyless go.

Original Fob may still work, but I want to give the customer a Fob that I know is 100% working so he doesn't end up mailing that Fob back as non functional

good job thank you very much , the big white coil indicate that this fob is a mercedes keyless go without it the customer will not be able to use the pushstart button he will be forced to insert key ditectly to the EIS in order to turn ignition on .

If you reball the chip with regular solder without a stencil does that work? Or is it just a pain without a stencil that would cause tons of bridges?

The key with the white coil is a keyless go key. The keys with out the white coil are not keylessgo aka prox

I have been binge watching your videos. Can you explain when and why you need to reball? There are some chips that you take directly from one board to another.
