Iowa FAQ

Common questions from customers shipping from Iowa.

How long does shipping take from Iowa to your Arlington TX workshop?
USPS Priority Mail from Des Moines, IA reaches our Arlington workshop in about 2 business days. USPS Priority routes north through the Central network; typically 2 days. We start work the same day your module arrives and typically ship back next business day at the return speed you chose at checkout.

Do you accept volvo cem clone / data transfer modules from Iowa?
Yes — we receive modules from Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Davenport, Sioux City and the rest of Iowa regularly. With about 3.4 million registered vehicles statewide, full-size pickups & SUVs are the bulk of what we see from Iowa.
Is there a volvo cem clone / data transfer shop in Des Moines I should use instead?
Most Des Moines shops don't keep the bench equipment for volvo cem clone / data transfer — 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.
Will this fix a no-start that isn't the CEM?
No. Cloning restores the CEM's identity and keys, but it cannot repair a no-start caused by fuel, spark, battery, starter, wiring, grounds, or a corroded harness. If the CEM checks out, those must be diagnosed and repaired separately.
How much is it, and is it a mail-in service?
It is $250 flat and a fast turnaround once your verified modules arrive. Yes, it is mail-in only — after we verify your platform and donor match by VIN and module label, you ship the CEM (and donor, if cloning) to Auto Module Lab. We clone it on the bench, test communication, and ship it back with tracking. You choose your return-shipping speed at checkout — Standard $29.95, UPS 2-Day $54.95, or UPS overnight $94.95.
