Illinois FAQ

Common questions from customers shipping from Illinois.

How long does shipping take from Illinois to your Arlington TX workshop?
USPS Priority Mail from Chicago, IL reaches our Arlington workshop in about 2 business days. UPS Ground similar. We start work the same day your module arrives, and ship back next business day with return shipping included.
How much does it cost to ship from Illinois?
USPS Priority Mail flat-rate from Illinois to Arlington TX runs about $11. Customer pays shipping to us; return shipping back to Illinois is included in the $95 service price.
Do you accept modules from Illinois?
Yes — we ship to and from all 50 US states including Illinois. Our Arlington TX workshop receives modules from Chicago and the rest of Illinois every week.
Is there a bench evaluation / custom job shop in Chicago I should use instead?
Most local Chicago shops don't offer bench evaluation / custom job as a bench service — they'd send the part to someone like us anyway. Going direct saves the markup and shortens the timeline. Total round-trip from Chicago: typically 5-7 days.
When should I use this vs your flat-rate services?
If your need fits one of our 21 flat-rate services (BMW EWS delete, Mercedes EIS, VW IMMO delete, TIPM repair, etc.), pick that — it's cheaper and faster. Use bench evaluation when your scenario is unusual, the module isn't on our service list, or you want a professional diagnosis before committing to a specific repair.
Is the $95 refundable if you can't fix it?
$40 of it is. The remaining $55 covers our bench diagnostic time. If the module IS repairable but you decide not to proceed, no refund — we did the work.
How fast is the evaluation?
24 hours from receipt. We diagnose same-day if it arrives by 11am Central, otherwise next business day.
