GM VIN Clear “Theft Unlock” Programmer
Description
This OBD Genie programmer removes the “theft lock” message from a General Motors radio. At the factory, General Motors radios are paired by VIN number to the vehicle they’re sold with. If one of these radios is installed into a vehicle it was not sold with, it does not recognize the VIN number and displays the “theft lock” message. If a vehicle owner wants to replace their General Motors radio, they will encounter this message. Our OBD Genie programmer clears the VIN number from the radio, so it can be installed in a new vehicle.
This OBD Genie programmer only removes the “theft lock” message from the radio. It does not communicate with any features such as audio, buttons, A/C, etc. If your radio or other features are not functioning properly, contact the company the radio was purchased from.

For missing packages that have been shipped to an APO/FPO:
- Please note that the Military Postal Service Agency does not consider a package to be lost until 60 days after the date of mailing. If the customer still has not received their package after 60 days then please contact customer service to assist you in filing a missing package inquiry with the MPSA. Once the inquiry is received, the MPSA will be in contact to positively identify the owner and ship the item to the recipient should it be found.
In the event a lost or missing package is not recovered within 14-days (domestic shipments) or 30-days (international shipments) a police report may be required at the discretion of the customer support manager. All part numbers and/or serial numbers are recorded prior to shipping, this vital information will assist the police with the investigation. Depending solely on the circumstances, the customer support manager may opt to release another identical shipment requiring a direct signature of the original buyer.

Rated 4 out of 5Once I installed my "Theft Locked" Upgrade system- IOR to IOU. I had to (unknowingly) get the OBD Genie to unlock my upgraded system per the customer support. The device worked as intended and I was it is a great device. On the other hand, it took me a full week and a half just to get this small device.
