I'll likely contact koalamotorsports to get some details, and ask about sending it back, but I'm still interested in alternatives because sending it back will surely render the car useless for the period of time the computer is away and it may cost quite a bit of money to get reprogrammed. If there's another alternative I'm willing to look into it.

In my case I needed the TCU so cut the wire between the TCU and CCM and grounded the CCM INPUT.
