Autel IM608 Not Detect Valid VVDI BE Key Solution

 Problem:

Every time I need to insert the Benz BE key Autel IM608 tells me invalid key. I tried 3 different Xhorse VVDI BE keys (yellow board).  Even changed xp400 pro same situation.

Error “The current key is detected to be invalid.”

Solution:

Some BE Key yellow board old version 3.2 come not properly soldered.
BUT the manufacturer is aware of the flaws. There is a new version V4.2 that fixes the issues.

 

Green and yellow new boards work perfectly normally, something else is the issue.

It seems that it’s your USB cable. Some users had a similar situation.

Change usb cable of the programmer. Use the original USB cable of the xp400 pro, it is enough.

Feedback: 

The usb cable was bad, after changing cable, it works fine.

Autel IM608 Program Benz E350 2013 VVDI FBS3 Key

 I have an all keys lost 2013 mercedes e350 with the proximity smart key. I’ve read not to put a battery until the end.

I’ve read aftermarket Keyless go keys (I got the Xhorse VVDI FBS3 key) don’t work on C and E class. Only for S class, ML, R class etc. keyless go functions won’t work. I decided to have a try with Autel IM608.

It worked! I initially went under on vehicle G-Box fast and it said it couldn’t do it so then I went to All keys lost regularly in vehicle and it got the password very quickly but it never asked me if it was a smart key so I I thought it wasn’t going to work but it worked fine I put in the battery after a programmed and went to test it out after a minute.

I found these keys work most likely on later years
Did myself 12,13 S class
12,13 Gl class
C class 2014 as well
E class 2010/11 no work
C class 2009-2011 no work
Keyless go function work/ no work based on EIS version and NOT by chassis code.
I can tell that as much as the car newer more likely chances to work.

Can I Use VVDI BE Key with Autel IM608?

 Question: Can I program VVDI BE Key XNBZ01 with Autel im608 Pro?

Look at VVDI BE Key image below:

Read the success stories below:

  1. It can be programmed without problems with Autel im608, I did with this one on E240. But you can’t change frequency via IM608.  IM608 does not have the capability to change Mercedes key frequency like the vvdi mb.

If you remove the capacitor where it says FRE it will change the frequency, the yellow label on the key wrapper tells you about the frequency.

 

Look at this image showing desolder this resistor for 433 MHz:

Or use vvdi mb to change Frequency 315 or 433 no need to desolder.
