Key Information
Do I need to bring the vehicle?
No. In most cases, supplying the ECU alone is sufficient.
What changes after the service?
The ECU becomes fully unlocked and accessible for supported tuning platforms, enabling calibration and performance modifications while retaining factory functionality.
Is this a cloning service?
No. This is a direct unlock solution. No ECU replacement or cloning is involved.
Is tuning included?
No. This is an access service only. Tuning software and licenses are sold separately.
What if the ECU is restricted again?
If the ECU becomes restricted again due to a software update or related event, Protocol One can restore access remotely or in-store where required.
