We sell ISM module A1644460610
We offer an original, used Siemens VDO ISM module for the 7G-Tronic 722.9 automatic gearbox. This is the VIRGIN version – clean and reset, ready for programming. We bench-test it before dispatch. Numbers to compare: A1644460610 and A2C53163028.
Application
The number starts with 164 – in Mercedes-Benz numbering this is the ML W164 / GL X164 series the module was developed for. What matters are the codes on the label of your module: A1644460610 and A2C53163028. In the Mercedes-Benz catalogue, number A1644460610 is superseded by A0002701852 – we stock that module too: A0002701852.
How does an ISM module failure show up?
- gearbox fault message,
- the gearbox does not respond when D or R is selected,
- the car cannot be shifted out of P.
Note: the cause may also be the selector, wiring or the gearbox control unit (VGS). A diagnosis before purchase will check this.

Programming and cloning
Programming takes two stages: first the positioner (selector) is calibrated, then the ISM module is adapted to the gearbox and the car. Instead of programming we can clone the data from your old module – cloning is included in the price.
Warranty
The warranty on this module is 6 months. You will find the other gearbox control units in the category Mercedes-Benz Transmission Control Units (TCU). Questions about choosing the number? Contact us.
