ECU VIN programming

My original all wheel drive traction control ECU went bad in my EVO-X. I bought a used one out of a wrecked EVO, of the same approximate vintage.

It wont work until the VIN number is reprogrammed to match my car's VIN. Can anyone tell me where I can send the unit to have my VIN programmed into it ??

Thanks for the help.

Dealer wont do it unless you buy the part from them. You know their prices. .

There are certain bullets that you have to bite to get it done. This and recalibrating your SRS sensors are some of them.

Must be someone else out there that can do it for a reasonable fee, besides the dealership.
