Is there a porsche alarm / immobilizer box clone shop in Chicago I should use instead?
Most Chicago shops don't keep the bench equipment for porsche alarm / immobilizer box 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. Cross-region north — about 2 days each way.
Does Illinois vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Illinois requires emissions testing in the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis areas; downstate counties are exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Illinois and federal requirements.
I have lost all keys to my 996. Where does that job start?
At the alarm box, because that is where the key data lives on these cars. That is different from most modern Porsches, where keys are handled by the body control module or Kessy system. Mail us the alarm module and the VIN with proof of ownership and we work from the module's own data on the bench. Tell us up front that it is an all-keys-lost job so a technician can scope what else, if anything, needs to come with it.
Will my existing keys still work after a clone?
Yes — that is the point of cloning. We copy the immobilizer and key data from your original onto the matched donor, so the replacement carries the same key authorisations your car already knows. You should not need new keys on a successful clone. If your original cannot be read, that changes the plan and we tell you before any charge.
