Pricing

What it costs

Ranges, not flat rates — a cracked solder joint and a failed driver IC are not the same job. You get a firm number for your module before any work starts.

Bench diagnostics & testing

Bench test POWER-UP / COMM / DTC

$50 – $150

Bench-powered through a breakout harness, diagnostic communication established, DTCs and shadow memory pulled, supply rail integrity checked, transceiver and processor health verified.

This fee is applied toward the repair or programming cost if you approve the work. If you decline, or the module is not economically repairable, it stands as a test and inspection fee and return shipping is billed separately.

Software & flashing

VIN writing, flashing, mileage sync	$100 – $250	Plug-and-play setup for your vehicle.
Module cloning FLASH + EEPROM / MCU	$150 – $300	Full read and write from your original unit to a donor.
Airbag / SRS crash data reset HARD CODE CLEAR VIA EEPROM	$50 – $120	Module must be installed by a qualified technician and the system verified before the vehicle returns to service.

Domestic and common Asian platforms sit at the low to mid end. European and high-security architectures — FCA secure gateway, BMW CAS/FEM/BDC, Mercedes FBS, VAG MQB with component protection — sit at the high end or carry a token surcharge.

Board-level repair

Minor component repair	$150 – $300	Solder reflow, trace repair, capacitor replacement, driver IC and MOSFET replacement, voltage regulator replacement.
Complex rebuild & specialty	$250 – $600+	ABS hydraulic control units, diesel FICMs, Allison TCMs, hybrid inverter gate drivers, and sealed or gel-filled modules needing micro-bonding work.

Additional

Return shipping	$15 – $40	Priority or ground with insurance. Billed whether or not the repair goes ahead.
Expedited same-day turnaround	+$50 – $100	Subject to parts and bench availability. Ask before shipping.
Corrosion or water damage	+$50 – $100	Additional cleaning and inspection. If multilayer traces are compromised the unit is called non-repairable and only the bench fee applies.

Payment

Bench fee	Up front	Invoiced when the module arrives, before it goes on the bench. This is the fee that applies whether or not the unit turns out to be repairable.
Repair balance	Before return	Invoiced once the work is finished and verified. The module ships back after the invoice clears.
Method	Card	Invoices are emailed with a secure payment link. No card details are handled over the phone or through this site.

Quotes are good for 30 days. If a job is not approved within that window the module is returned at the customer's cost.

Not everything is listed here. If you have a module or a job that is not on this page, ask — the list covers what comes across the bench most often, not the limit of what can be done.
