How long does shipping take from Colorado to your Arlington TX workshop?

Do you accept ford pats delete (1996+) modules from Colorado?
Yes — we receive modules from Denver, Colorado Springs, Aurora, Fort Collins and the rest of Colorado regularly. With about 5.3 million registered vehicles statewide, trucks & 4x4 SUVs are the bulk of what we see from Colorado.
Is there a ford pats delete (1996+) shop in Denver I should use instead?
Most Denver shops don't keep the bench equipment for ford pats delete (1996+) — 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. Regional west — about 2 days each way.
Does Colorado vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Colorado requires emissions testing in the Denver-Boulder Front Range metro region; rural counties are exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Colorado and federal requirements.
Do I need to send any keys?
No. After PATS delete, any physical key that fits the ignition will start the car. Existing keys still work; the PCM just stops checking for the transponder.
Will the THEFT light still flash on the dashboard?
On most PCMs we can disable the light too. On some early EEC-V PCMs, the THEFT indicator is hardwired to the receiver — if your specific PCM has this, the light may stay on but the engine starts normally. We tell you upfront before shipping back if your PCM falls in this category.
