Is there a gm vats delete (1986-2005) shop in Phoenix I should use instead?
Most Phoenix shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm vats delete (1986-2005) — 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-country southwest — about 2 days each way.
Does Arizona vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Arizona requires emissions testing in the Phoenix and Tucson metro areas; the rest of the state is exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Arizona and federal requirements.
Can I reverse this if I sell the car?
Yes — we archive the original ECM data for 90 days. Within that window, restore is $75. After 90 days, restoration is best-effort.
My VATS module is bad — does this fix that too?
It makes the VATS module irrelevant. The ECM stops checking, so a bad VATS module under the dash no longer affects starting. You can leave the bad module in place or remove it.
