Remote one-on-one sessionsCan't get to Colorado Springs? Some of this works over a video call.
One-on-one with me, by video call, $200 an hour.
It isn't the same as standing at the bench, and I'll tell you straight if what you want needs you here. But a lot of the thinking side of this work is screens and decisions, and that part travels fine.

What works remotely
Performance tuning
Reading a tune file and a datalog together in HP Tuners, on your own vehicle's files, and working out what to change and why.
Car key theory
Key types, chips and FCC IDs, how the immobilizer on your vehicle works, and which tool does what on which car.
Programmer walkthroughs
You share your screen or point a camera at your own programmer and we go through it together, step by step.
Dealer software setup
Getting manufacturer software and a pass-thru device installed and talking to the car.
What to buy
Which cutter, programmer or soldering gear fits what you want to do, before you spend the money.
What doesn't
Anything your hands have to learn.
Rekeying, installing hardware, cutting keys, soldering and safe work all need you at the bench with someone watching your hands. Those are the hands-on workshops in Colorado Springs.
