About
Zed-FULL is a professional-grade automotive locksmith device manufactured by IEA (Istanbul Anahtar) that delivers a complete solution for immobilizer systems and electronic key programming. Equipped with 5 different antennas, it supports transponder reading and cloning across 125 KHz, 134.2 KHz, and 13.56 MHz frequencies, including hotel door cards and tags. The device can clone transponders key-to-key, write to virtually all writable transponder types (EH1, EH2, TPX1–TPX4, MD46, TS48, TK60, CN1, CN2, and OEM variants), and generate or convert transponders as needed. With over 264 EEPROM application profiles covering thousands of vehicle models, Zed-FULL also handles MCU and EEPROM reading without a computer using dedicated adapter accessories. OBD2 functionality includes PIN code extraction, key/remote/proximity card programming and erasing, and truck key programming. The device supports Mercedes IR key programming for 1998–2015 FBS3 vehicles, OEM remote key unlocking, motorbike key programming, ECU virginising (Fiat), and PIN code calculation from labels and VIN numbers. Zed-FULL is particularly valued for its ability to clone Fiat remotes with 48 transponders onto IEA-made emulator remotes, including Hitag2-based remotes. Regular software updates ensure compatibility with new vehicles and security systems, keeping professional locksmiths ahead of the competition. It is ideal for independent automotive locksmiths, dealerships, and security professionals who need a versatile, regularly updated key programming platform.
