How to replace key ignition with push-button start on a Mercedes car

Model: Mercedes Classe A W176 - Years 2012-2018
Part: Key

In this video, we will see how to install the start button instead of the key on a Mercedes car: the procedure is valid for Class A, B, C, E, GLA. First, let's get the button, which we can find for example on Amazon with the code at a price of 22.49 euros, free delivery for Prime customers. The installation is very simple, because if we have a key like the one in the video, that is not the metal key but with the slot, we just have to place the button by inserting it in place of the key. Now to start, we just have to press the brake pedal and press the button, and the engine will start. This method works on all Mercedes produced from 2010 onwards, produced with keyless-go.
