How the process works:

When you're ready, purchase the listing for your repair. We will send the shipping information via email & check out screen after purchase.
2. SHIP YOUR MODULE TO US
We recommend shipping via USPS using Flat Rate boxes. Please add padding and include a note inside with your name, orrder number and your symptoms.
Note: We recommend against oversized boxes or overnight services?it is never ideal to overnight a module that may be non-repairable.
3. DIAGNOSTICS & REPAIR
We perform an initial test for the symptoms described. If issues are found, we proceed immediately with repairs. Once fixed, we apply a new conformal coating to the PCB and re-seal the case with professional-grade silicone adhesive.
4. IMPORTANT: CHECK YOUR VEHICLE
Our repair fixes the damage to your module, but you MUST identify and repair what caused the original failure (shorted wires, bad sensors, moisture entry) before re-installing or your module may be damaged again.
5. RETURN & INSTALLATION
We handle the return shipping via USPS. After the sealant cures, your module is packed securely and shipped back. Unless noted, there is no programming required. It will be Plug and Play.
Frequently Asked Questions:
WHAT IF MY MODULE IS NOT REPAIRABLE?
If your unit has sustained "un-repairable" damage (heavy liquid or severe burn damage), we can usually either Issue a full Refund or Provide a replacement unit (additional part cost required).
WHAT IF MY MODULE PASSES TESTING AND IS NOT AT FAULT?
If your unit tests good with no faults found, we can either perform the repair anyway to rule out intermittent issues, or issue a refund minus our bench fee. This covers our professional bench testing time and return shipping.
DO YOU REPAIR MODULES PREVIOUSLY WORKED ON?
Yes! If your module has a failed DIY attempt or was worked on by another shop, we may still be able to fix it. Note that "repairing a repair" often requires extra bench time to correct poor soldering, but we specialize in these complex recoveries.
IS THERE A WARRANTY ON THE REPAIR?
Yes! We provide a Limited Lifetime Warranty on our workmanship and all replaced components for as long as you own the vehicle. External factors like water damage or vehicle-side wiring shorts are not covered.
WILL MY PROGRAMMING BE AFFECTED?
Since most repairs are harware based typically NO programming data is disturbed. Things like VIN, Key Coding, Mileage, are stored in the software bits. However since we work with both aftermarket and oem methods, in the cases where software work is needed for the repairs, we typically can reprogram your unit so it will still be Plug-and-Play.
DO YOU USE QUALITY COMPONENTS?
Absolutely. We utilize authentic high-grade components from trusted distributors. We also use premium conformal coating and sealants that meet or exceed original factory standards.
