Wisconsin has roughly 5.2 million registered vehicles, and trucks, SUVs & imports make up much of what Milwaukee-area shops and owners mail us.

Is there a smart fortwo ecu / module clone shop in Milwaukee I should use instead?
Most Milwaukee shops don't keep the bench equipment for smart fortwo ecu / module 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 2-3 days each way.
Does Wisconsin vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Wisconsin requires OBD-II emissions testing in seven southeastern counties near Milwaukee; the rest of the state is exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Wisconsin and federal requirements.
Why won't a used Smart Fortwo ECU just start my car?
The engine ECU carries immobilizer and VIN data tied to the car it originally came from. A used unit still thinks it's in the donor Smart, so your car cranks but never fires. Cloning copies your original ECU's identity onto the donor so it behaves as if it were your factory unit — the standard fix for a used-ECU swap.
Which Smart Fortwo models does this cover?
Primarily the 451 (2008–2015) with the Mitsubishi 1.0L three-cylinder and Bosch ECU — Pure, Passion, Cabriolet, and Brabus. The earlier 450 is handled case-by-case, and the Electric Drive is verified individually. Send us your VIN and a photo of the ECU label and we confirm your exact unit before you ship.
