In this article, we will explore the process of programming the 2010 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter W906 with all keys lost using the Autel IM608 II + XP400 Pro. This model utilizes a blade-style key with 46 transponders. We will not only cover the programming steps on the bench but also demonstrate how to program the vehicle to enable it to start and run. So, let’s dive into the detailed procedure.
Connection
IMMO >> Accept >> Mercedes-Benz LD
Establishing a connection to the VCI.
Please make sure that the VCI is connected to the vehicle and the ignition is ON.

Press “Yes” to continue.
Here we can check the wiring diagram, about 6 wires in total. Having already sold them on, let’s move forward.
Read & Write New Key
Press “Read EEPROM data”.
This function can only be performed on the bench. Please connect the
wires according to the wiring diagram and then complete the operation.
Press “Yes” to continue.
Reading transponder data, please do not disconnect the USB cable…
Succeed in saving the transponder data information.
Key learning >> Select EIS EEPROM file >> OK >> Generate new keys
Please put the blank key into the key slot of the XP400Pro Programmer.
Generation succeeded.
Succeed in saving the transponder data information.
Do you want to continue generating keys? No.
Do you want to write the EIS EEPROM data directly? Yes.
Writing transponder data, please do not disconnect the USB cable…
Succeeded in writing!
Key learning >> Select EIS EEPROM file >> OK
It shows the “Number of keys” is 5.
Complete.
Now we can unsolder the wires and plug the EIS back into the car. Use the key to start and run the vehicle.
Conclusion:
By utilizing the Autel IM608 II + XP400 Pro key programming tools,
programming a 2010 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter W906 with all keys lost
scenario becomes a manageable task. Following the step-by-step procedure
outlined above, one can successfully program a blade-style key with 46
transponders. Remember to test the programmed key in the vehicle to
confirm its functionality. With the right equipment and proper
execution, you can ensure a reliable and secure key replacement process
