Is there a gm hmi / radio / cluster vin unlock shop in Louisville I should use instead?
Most Louisville shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm hmi / radio / cluster vin unlock — 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. Cross-region northeast — about 2 days each way.
Does Kentucky vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Kentucky has no statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program for most passenger vehicles. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Kentucky and federal requirements.
What does Theft Lock mean on a GM HMI or radio?
On Global A/B vehicles (2014+) the HMI, radio and cluster store the vehicle VIN as anti-theft protection. Install a used module from a different VIN and it locks itself, showing a Theft Lock screen until the VIN lock is cleared.
Do I need to match IO5 vs IO6?
Yes. IO5 is the non-navigation HMI and IO6 includes embedded factory navigation. Match hardware version and options like Bose too. We unlock the VIN lock, but the donor must be the correct build to function fully.
