Do you accept mini r50/r52/r53 bcm clone modules from New Mexico?
Yes — we receive modules from Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Rio Rancho, Santa Fe and the rest of New Mexico regularly. With about 1.8 million registered vehicles statewide, full-size pickups & SUVs are the bulk of what we see from New Mexico.
Is there a mini r50/r52/r53 bcm clone shop in Albuquerque I should use instead?
Most Albuquerque shops don't keep the bench equipment for mini r50/r52/r53 bcm clone — 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. Neighboring state — 1-2 days each way.
Does New Mexico vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
New Mexico requires emissions testing only in Bernalillo County (Albuquerque area); the rest of the state is exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all New Mexico and federal requirements.
My original BCM is completely dead. Can you still help?
If it will not power up or respond on the bench there is nothing to read, so a straight clone is off the table. Those jobs route to our advanced recovery service (ecu-advanced-recovery-service), where we attempt a direct memory read from the board itself. Contact us with the VIN and symptoms first and we will tell you honestly whether it is worth attempting before you spend money on shipping.
Do you supply the donor module?
No — you source the used donor from eBay, a breaker, or a parts recycler, and we verify compatibility before you commit. That keeps your cost down and keeps us honest about what will actually work. Send the listing photos and the part number alongside your original's label and we will confirm or reject the match at no charge.
