Maine FAQ
Common questions from customers shipping from Maine.
How long does shipping take from Maine to your Arlington TX workshop?
USPS Priority Mail from Portland, ME reaches our Arlington workshop in about 3-4 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 Maine?
USPS Priority Mail flat-rate from Maine to Arlington TX runs about $13. Customer pays shipping to us; return shipping back to Maine is included in the $350 service price.
Do you accept modules from Maine?
Yes — we ship to and from all 50 US states including Maine. Our Arlington TX workshop receives modules from Portland and the rest of Maine every week.
Is there a mercedes elv emulator programming shop in Portland I should use instead?
Most local Portland shops don't offer mercedes elv emulator programming 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 Portland: typically 5-7 days.
Is the emulator a permanent fix?
Yes. The emulator has no moving parts — it electrically simulates the ELV handshake with the EIS. It will not fail mechanically like the original.
Does the price include the emulator hardware?
Yes. $350 covers the new emulator, EIS pairing, return shipping, and 1-year warranty.
How hard is the install?
About 30-60 minutes. The failed ELV pops out after removing the dashboard trim and steering column shroud. The emulator plugs in the same way. We email step-by-step photos with your tracking number.
