Hawaii FAQ

Common questions from customers shipping from Hawaii.

How long does shipping take from Hawaii to your Arlington TX workshop?
USPS Priority Mail from Honolulu, HI reaches our Arlington workshop in about 4-5 business days. USPS Priority moves by air from the North Texas network; 4-5 days given the ocean distance. We start work the same day your module arrives and ship back next business day at the return speed you chose at checkout.

Do you accept gm afm / dod / dfm disable programming modules from Hawaii?
Yes — we receive modules from Honolulu, Hilo, Kailua and the rest of Hawaii regularly. With about 1.1 million registered vehicles statewide, compact SUVs & imports are the bulk of what we see from Hawaii.
Is there a gm afm / dod / dfm disable programming shop in Honolulu I should use instead?
Most Honolulu shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm afm / dod / dfm disable programming — 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. Far-flung — plan 4-5 days each way, roughly a 2-week round-trip.
Does Hawaii vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Hawaii requires an annual safety inspection for registered vehicles; there is no state emissions testing program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Hawaii and federal requirements.
What ECMs are supported?
AutoModuleLab currently supports GM E38, E67, E92, and E92A ECMs after verification. E38 is the primary application (2007–2014 Gen 4 V8 trucks and SUVs — 5.3, 6.0, 6.2); E67, E92, and E92A are confirmed case-by-case from your VIN and ECM label photo. Support always depends on the year, model, engine, operating system, and calibration. We do not currently offer E90, E93, E99, or Global B unlock/upgrade services.
Can you disable DFM (Dynamic Fuel Management) on newer Gen 5 trucks?
On many supported Gen 5 applications (E92 / E92A), DFM can be disabled in the calibration the same way AFM / DOD is on Gen 4 — after we verify your specific ECM, operating system, and calibration. Some later locked GM ECMs require unlock or upgrade processes that AutoModuleLab does not currently offer; we will tell you up front if your ECM falls outside what we support.
