SRS Module Reset: What It Costs and How Long It Takes
Two questions come up before every order: what will it cost and when do I get my module back. Both depend on a small number of factors you can check before you ship.
What drives the price
Reset pricing is mostly a function of how the module is accessed. Some units are read over the diagnostic connector on the bench. Others need the case opened and the memory chip read directly, which takes longer and carries more risk.
- Module manufacturer and memory type
- Whether the unit can be read on the connector or needs chip level access
- Additional damage found on the board, such as corrosion or lifted pads
- Return shipping method and destination
The realistic timeline
Bench work takes about 72 hours from the moment your module arrives. The rest of the timeline is transit in both directions, which is the part you control by choosing the carrier.
- Canada: one to three days each way
- US: three to six days each way including customs
- Bench work: approximately 72 hours after receipt
The two things that add days
First, a missing note in the box. Without a name, phone number and VIN we have to match the module to an order manually. Second, an unconfirmed part number. If a module turns out to be one we do not support, the whole round trip is wasted. Email us the part number off the label before you ship and both problems disappear.
Common questions
Do you charge if the module cannot be reset?
No. We operate a no fix no fee policy. If we cannot complete the work you pay only return shipping.
Can you rush a job?
Contact us before shipping and we will tell you honestly whether the schedule allows it that week.
