    Unfortunately there is no easy way around tunerlocked ecms.
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    A wise man once said "google it"

    Hello

    I have PCM unlock service. For a small fee I can unlock it and keep the current tune or flash a factory OS to it, your choice.

    Best regards.

    Well, Ford ECUs can't be locked in the same way GM ECUs are. What some tuners do is change the strategy name and table locations to custom values so other tuning software can't recognize them, but they aren't "locked" since you can read and write a stock tune.
    Did you try to read it?

    EPS in Baton Rouge used to charge $75-$100 to unlock a ECM or PCM and preserve the tune in it.

    Can you do a 2020 Chevy Silverado ECM?

    My ECM went bad, the dealer says the ECM I ordered off of Ebay won't work because each ECM is locked to a particular truck.

    So I ordered a new ECM from the dealer but there's a huge shortage and it could end up taking a few months for me to get my new ECM.

    I just want the new "used" ECM to be flashed so that it appears to be a new unit and the dealer can go ahead and program it to my truck.

    I have a 2006 cummins with a tuner locked ecu and would like to return it back to stock. I bought the credits to flash the stock file back onto the ecu, then found out I couldn't flash it. Are you able to unlock that?

    How do I get in touch with you about doing this?
