Josh has offered to see if he can devise some inexpensive way to totally bypass the fob/skreem/ptcm security so a skreem module going bad
( which seems to be happening now with increasing frequency ) will not prevent you from driving the car.
Currently, if this happens to you, you will be looking at a minimum of around $800 to get it going again.
Josh has in the past installed V8's into Crossfires, and even figured out how to get a V8 running with a manual transmission,
so you could say he is qualified for this task.
The monies are for supplies and a programmer box with software to do the research, and a bit for him and his family.
