Why Maine customers mail in advanced ecu / module recovery

Maine has roughly 1.1 million registered vehicles, and trucks & 4x4 SUVs make up much of what Portland-area shops and owners mail us. Advanced ECU / Module Recovery is a bench job most Portland shops don't keep equipment for, so owners and trade shops across Maine ship it to a specialist. Cross-country far-northeast — about 3-4 days each way.

How long does shipping take from Maine to your Arlington TX workshop?

Do you accept advanced ecu / module recovery modules from Maine?
Yes — we receive modules from Portland, Lewiston, Bangor, Augusta and the rest of Maine regularly. With about 1.1 million registered vehicles statewide, trucks & 4x4 SUVs are the bulk of what we see from Maine.
Is there a advanced ecu / module recovery shop in Portland I should use instead?
Most Portland shops don't keep the bench equipment for advanced ecu / module recovery — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country far-northeast — about 3-4 days each way.
Does Maine vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Maine requires an annual vehicle safety inspection statewide, with emissions testing in the Cumberland County area. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Maine and federal requirements.
Do you cover water- and fire-damaged modules?
Yes — flood, coolant intrusion, corrosion, and fire/overheat damage are exactly the cases this tier exists for. Corroded boards can often be cleaned and repaired; where heat has cooked the processor we go to a direct chip read. Ship it dry (don't try to power a wet module) and tell us the history so we can plan the recovery.
How much is it and how does the mail-in work?
It is $350 flat when the data is recovered. After a technician reviews your VIN and module photos and confirms recovery is realistic, you ship the module (and a donor if one is planned) to Auto Module Lab in Arlington, TX. We evaluate, recover, and bench-test, then ship everything back with tracking — return speed your choice at checkout (Standard $24.95, UPS 2-Day $54.95, or UPS overnight $94.95).
