⚠️ Important Information – Electronic Control Modules (BCM, TCM, Gateway, Bluetooth, etc.)

Most control modules are vehicle-specific and may require programming, coding, or synchronisation with your vehicle’s existing systems before they will operate correctly.

• Professional programming required: Many modules (e.g. BCMs, transmission control units, Bluetooth modules) must be coded or matched to your vehicle by a qualified auto electrician or specialist using the correct diagnostic equipment.

• Security seals: All electronic parts are security marked and sealed. Returns will not be accepted if these seals have been broken, tampered with, or removed.

• Proof of fault: If a part has been installed but is found to be faulty or incompatible, we require photographic proof or a diagnostic report showing communication errors or non-response.

• Compatibility: Please confirm that the part number and software version match your original unit before purchase. Visual similarities alone do not guarantee compatibility.

• Installation care: Improper fitting, static discharge, or incorrect programming can damage electronic components and void your right to return.
