Mercedes FBS4 ECU Virginizing
Used ECU Reset to Factory-Virgin State – Dealer Programmable After Service
This service is for 2014 and newer Mercedes-Benz vehicles equipped with the FBS4 immobilizer system.
We perform bench-level ECU virginizing (ECU renew) — a specialized procedure that resets a used ECU to a factory-virgin state, removing all vehicle-specific immobilizer and security data.
Once completed, the ECU becomes functionally identical to a brand-new ECU, allowing it to be programmed to your vehicle using Mercedes dealer equipment or any professional scan tool with online coding capability.
⚠️ Mercedes dealers do NOT virginize used ECUs.
They only program new or already-virgin ECUs.
This service makes a used ECU acceptable for dealer programming.
✅ What This Service Does
✔ Removes immobilizer, VIN, and donor vehicle data
✔ Resets ECU to factory-virgin / renewed state
✔ Makes used ECU programmable to your vehicle
✔ Enables programming with Xentry or dealer-level scan tools
✔ Ideal when original ECU is damaged, burnt, or flooded
