CAN Bus Immobilizer Mercedes-Benz ML (W166) – Electronic Anti-Theft Protection & CAN Firewall

Invisible installation, no radio signals and maximum security – one of the most effective anti-theft solutions for Mercedes-Benz ML (W166).

CAN bus immobilizer for Mercedes-Benz ML (W166) – modern electronic anti-theft protection with Ampire CAN firewall technology. This retrofit immobilizer communicates directly via your vehicle’s CAN data bus and reliably blocks either engine start or – depending on configuration – gear engagement, preventing the vehicle from being moved. Ideal for anyone looking to retrofit a secure and invisible immobilizer.

The Ampire WFS400-PRO effectively protects your vehicle against modern theft methods such as keyless relay attacks, programming of new vehicle keys, or interception of radio signals. Even with the original key, the vehicle cannot be started without authorization.

Deactivation is conveniently performed via smartphone, optional Bluetooth transponder, or a user-defined PIN code using the vehicle buttons. No additional remote controls are required, and the system operates fully integrated via the CAN/LIN data bus.

⚠ We supply the electronic immobilizer with the appropriate software and a connection guide for your vehicle model. Therefore, please provide your VIN when placing your order.
