Iowa FAQ

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

Do you accept gm bcm rpo feature programming modules from Iowa?

Is there a gm bcm rpo feature programming shop in Des Moines I should use instead?
Most Des Moines shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm bcm rpo feature programming — 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-region north — about 2 days each way.
Does Iowa vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Iowa has no statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Iowa and federal requirements.
What about T96 fog lights and AU0 keyless entry on a 2004-2007 Colorado or Canyon?
Both are covered on this page, and the same applies to the Hummer H3 on that BCM family. T96 enables the factory fog-lamp function and AU0 enables remote keyless entry. The fog lamps, switch and harness, or the keyless receiver circuit, must already be in the truck for the enable to do anything.
Can you enable a feature if the parts are not installed?
No, and we will tell you so before you spend money. Programming enables an option the vehicle is already built to run; it cannot create hardware. No BCM tune will make locks cycle without actuators, windows move without motors, fog lamps light without lamps, or a fob work without a receiver. That is why we verify by VIN and RPO sticker up front.
