Rhode Island requires a biennial combined safety and OBD-II emissions inspection statewide. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Rhode Island and federal requirements.
Is this an emissions delete?
No. Unlocking restores calibration access; it does not remove emissions equipment. It is offered for tuning, cloning, repair, restoration, or module replacement where legally permitted, and the customer is responsible for compliance with local, state, and federal emissions law.
Will this fix a no-start or a check-engine light?
No. This restores read/write access to the ECM. It does not repair mechanical engine, transmission, or wiring faults, and it does not repair a physically damaged ECM. Those are separate diagnostic and repair jobs.
