The owner of this 2016 Mercedes-Benz G-wagon contacted Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security to inquire about the installation of a remote starter and keyless start system for her truck. After a little research, we came up with a solution to change the factory key-start system to a keyless system. We also proposed a DroneMobile solution to give her unlimited remote start range. With her approval, we scheduled an appointment for the installation.

We started by removing the factory key-start system and installing a keyless push-to-start solution. We used a Mid-City Engineering SKSNG166D4 interface to remote start the truck. This interface handles all the data and security communication with the factory ECU. The new system came with two keys, one of which we had to sacrifice to the remote starter interface module. Once that hardware was installed, we had the local Mercedes-Benz dealer program the keys.

A DroneMobile DR3400 Telematics interface allows the client to use an app on her smartphone to remote start the truck from anywhere she has an Internet connection.

The client was thrilled with the upgrades. If you are interested in a remote starter system for your Mercedes-Benz, contact Alaska’s remote car starter experts at Perfectionist.
