How quickly is the service completed?

Most standard jobs move through the lab shortly after arrival. Complex repairs, mismatched parts, or parts-dependent work may take longer.

Will it be ready to install?

Most programming and cloning work is returned ready for installation. Some vehicles may still require an on-car relearn or adaptation, which we will identify before work begins.

What if my part cannot be repaired?

We inspect the job first. If the supplied hardware cannot support the requested service, we will contact you before proceeding.

How should I package the module?

Use an anti-static bag when available, wrap the part generously, protect connector pins, and ship it in a sturdy box rather than an envelope.
