Frequently Asked Questions
How does the mail-in cloning process work?
It’s simple. After you complete your purchase, we will contact you with clear instructions for shipping your original BCM to our facility. Once we receive it, our technicians will transfer the data to the replacement module and ship it back to you, typically within 1-2 business days. You’ll receive tracking information as soon as it’s on its way.
Will I need to program this BCM at the dealership?
Absolutely not. The entire purpose of our service is to pre-program the module for you. It will arrive ready for installation, with no additional programming or key relearning required, saving you significant time and money.
What information do you transfer from my old BCM?
We perform a complete data transfer, which includes the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), immobilizer (anti-theft) data, mileage, and vehicle-specific option configurations. This ensures all systems communicate and function exactly as they did from the factory.
What if my original BCM is completely dead or not communicating?
In most cases, even if a BCM has failed operationally, the memory chip containing the essential data is still readable. Our technicians are skilled at data recovery. In the rare event that the data cannot be retrieved, we will contact you immediately to discuss alternative options before proceeding.
Do I need to perform any procedures after installation?
In some cases, minor sync procedures may be needed. For example, if your airbag light comes on, a ‘Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM’ procedure may be required. Similarly, a Brake Pedal Position Relearn might be necessary. These are standard procedures that can be performed by most professional scan tools.
