Idaho FAQ
Common questions from customers shipping from Idaho.
How long does shipping take from Idaho to your Arlington TX workshop?
USPS Priority Mail from Boise, ID reaches our Arlington workshop in about 3 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 Idaho?
USPS Priority Mail flat-rate from Idaho to Arlington TX runs about $12. Customer pays shipping to us; return shipping back to Idaho is included in the $199 service price.
Do you accept modules from Idaho?
Yes — we ship to and from all 50 US states including Idaho. Our Arlington TX workshop receives modules from Boise and the rest of Idaho every week.
Is there a ford pats delete (1996+) shop in Boise I should use instead?
Most local Boise shops don't offer ford pats delete (1996+) 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 Boise: typically 5-7 days.
Will my Ford still pass emissions?
Yes. PATS delete is independent of the emissions system. All OBD-II monitors, readiness flags, and emissions codes operate identically to before — only the anti-theft authentication is bypassed.
Do I need to send any keys?
No. After PATS delete, any physical key that fits the ignition will start the car. Existing keys still work; the PCM just stops checking for the transponder.
Will the THEFT light still flash on the dashboard?
On most PCMs we can disable the light too. On some early EEC-V PCMs, the THEFT indicator is hardwired to the receiver — if your specific PCM has this, the light may stay on but the engine starts normally. We tell you upfront before shipping back if your PCM falls in this category.
