ELV Simulator Kit for Mercedes-Benz Models

This package contains ten CGDI ELV Simulator units designed to renew electronic steering locks on Mercedes-Benz 204, 207 and 212 chassis. It is intended for automotive locksmiths and specialist workshops that service these vehicles with a CGDI MB Benz key programmer.

Plug-In Replacement for Damaged Steering Locks

Each simulator replaces a faulty ESL module directly, avoiding motor replacement or NEC chip unlocking procedures. Installation consists of removing the original unit and fitting the emulator; the process fails if the vehicle’s EIS data is not correctly read by the key programmer beforehand.

For Shops Servicing W204, W207, W212 Chassis

The kit suits technicians who regularly encounter ESL failures on these platforms and want a cost-effective alternative to new steering-lock assemblies. It is not for garages that work on other Mercedes models, lack a CGDI MB key programmer, or prefer to repair original ESL motors instead.
