$100 to the Houston Food Bank. Don't need your services right now, but might pick your brain should I need to add another key sometime. Thanks for posting this up and kicking off a great trend!

Still flashing immobilizers for food donations. I try to make it as easy as possible. Just send me your ecu, I will reset the immobilizer and send it back to you. All you have to do is donate some food or money to help feed people. You choose where your donation goes.
More than $5000 in donations so far!

sent you a PM sir, and what and awesome thing you are doing
I can attest, i made 3 keys for $90, when Toyota wanted 5x more. And Mauer held my hand through the whole process. Win win situation here.
This is wonderful. I will send you a PM. Just bought a 2000 LC with only the valet key.

Well, it has been a year since I started this. At last count we were way over $5000 in donations (I don't require proof so I am sure this number is actually a lot higher). Thank you everybody for all the donations. Donations have been made all around the world.
I really want to keep this going. I have flashed a lot more ecus than I expected. Paying 15 bucks each on return shipping plus the monthly fee to advertise here is costing me a lot.
I am now asking for anyone sending an ecu to please help with return shipping. I usually use USPS flat rate and it is right at $15.
Again, thank you everybody who has been able to donate food or money for food.

Thank you Mauser for doing this. While I haven't needed any ECU servicing, I think about this thread each time I donate to my local small business "Plating Change" to fight food insecurity.

I installed a Mauser flashed ECU at the end of 2020 and made a local donation. This spring I planted extra veggies in the garden and plan to donate the produce from those plants to the local food pantry. We have to continue paying it forward.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Installed the chip Mauser sent to me - it is easier than most would think! I was actually able to use a heat gun to remove the chip and replace the chip. Installed the ECU - good to go with a solid connection. Donated 100$ to a local food bank - and I actually am going to do the same as 87warrior - It looks like I will have a surplus of crop this year so I will chip in that when we get overloaded! Thanks for all the help Mauser!

Still offering this service. Don't have as many ecus to offer to swap anymore (sometimes people suck), but still flashing ecus for food bank donations or a donation to an organization that helps US Military Vets.
You guys have been really awesome, some of you donating hundreds of dollars (there are more that don't suck than do). I really don't know how much money has been donated, or how many people have been helped. All I can guess is thousands and thousands.
Thanks guys!

Mauser, thanks so much for continuing to offer this service to our community.
You really bailed me out.
Seems to me it would be perfectly appropriate for you to update this thread with posts about sending out exchange units * and cores returned to you for the next round. I can't imagine anyone in need being shy about your mentioning them here...

I just made a donation to the mid ohio food bank, I've sent you a PM about this. Thanks for putting together something great for those in need!
