FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FAQ
Can you program Acura RDX (2007-2012) modules?
Yes. Core Auto Logic supports generation-scoped module programming for the Acura RDX (2007-2012). The merged generation data includes ECU/PCM, BCM, TCU/TCM, ABS/EBCM, and SRS coverage. Rows marked with a year range apply only to that part of the span; unmarked rows are present across the merged generation data.
Which modules are documented for Acura RDX (2007-2012)?
The Acura RDX (2007-2012) generation currently shows 14 core module records across ECU/PCM, BCM, TCU/TCM, ABS/EBCM, and SRS groups. SRS modules include SRS Control Unit. Part numbers and module variants must be confirmed for your exact year/VIN. Reference part number: 77800TX4A812M1 - confirm for your exact year/VIN.
Can you reset the airbag module on Acura RDX (2007-2012)?
Yes. The generation data includes 1 SRS record, including SRS Control Unit. Bench reset, cloning, and replacement setup are handled after part-number review. Any SRS part number shown for this generation is planning data only - confirm for your exact year/VIN. Reference part number: 77800TX4A812M1 - confirm for your exact year/VIN.
Do all Acura RDX (2007-2012) years use the same parts?
No assumption should be made across the full span. The generation page merges rows across 2007-2012; any row that does not span all data-bearing years is printed with its year range or treated as varies by year - verify by VIN. Part numbers always require exact year/VIN confirmation before ordering, cloning, or programming.
How long does service take for Acura RDX (2007-2012)?
Most programming, cloning, and SRS jobs are quoted after VIN, DTC, part number, and repair-scope review. Service time varies by module type, condition, security access, and the active mobile service path. Mail-in module service is available nationwide. Exact service eligibility is confirmed from the year, VIN, module, and requested scope.
Is Acura RDX (2007-2012) service mobile or mail-in?
Mobile service covers DFW on-vehicle diagnostics, post-repair coding, and supported module work. Mail-in module service is available nationwide. We confirm the active path for your exact year, VIN, module, and requested scope before service.
