IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR VEHICLE’S WARRANTY —
PLEASE READ!
Many of our customers ask, “Will your product void my vehicle’s
manufacturer’s warranty?” While the answer is straightforward from a legal
standpoint, it’s important to educate our customers (and all after-market
consumers) on some industry realities and offer some common sense
precautions to minimize your risk.
Consumers of aftermarket products are protected by the Federal
Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. The Act states that if something breaks on
your vehicle and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor
your warranty unless whatever modifications you have added to your
vehicle actually caused the problem in question.
Edge is committed to providing quality products that are safe to use. Our
products do not cause damage to a vehicle when used as intended. Please
keep in mind that towing in anything higher than level two and hard driving
in levels four and five are not recommended. However, the reality is that
many dealerships have been known to void warranties on vehicles that use
aftermarket products as a matter of policy. This applies in particular to
those aftermarket products that produce horsepower, such as performance
enhancement “chips,” modified intake manifolds, or aftermarket exhaust
systems, regardless of product brand. Any aftermarket company that does
not acknowledge this is misleading you.
Although you have strong legal protection as a consumer in regard to your
vehicle’s warranty, the practical reality is that taking legal action against a
dealer or manufacturer to fight a voided warranty is a costly and timeintensive process. For this reason, Edge strongly recommends you always
disconnect and remove your module/programmer and monitor when
you take your vehicle to a dealer for warranty work. It is also for this
reason that Edge focuses the bulk of their product development efforts on
producing modules and digital monitors that can be easily removed. Even if
you remove your unit, you should note that dealers can detect the use of
ANY programmer — Evolution or otherwise — even if the unit has been
removed.
This warranty is void for any new products purchased through auction websites.
Warranty is valid only for new products purchased through Authorized Dealers
(proof of purchase required for all warranty claims).

All Edge modules and programmers are built to operate with OEM calibrations. When
you take your vehicle to a service center they may, by your request or otherwise, update
your vehicles calibrations. Therefore it is important that you return your vehicle to
stock before taking it in for service. Edge updates its active products (i.e. those
currently being manufactured) to work effectively with updated OEM calibrations.
However, this process can take some time as Edge is not always made aware of
calibration changes made by the OEM. In the case of discontinued products, Edge
cannot ensure that your unit will work effectively if you take your vehicle to a
dealership and you are given, by your request or otherwise, a new calibration.
About the Edge LB7 EZ
Thank you for purchasing the Power Edge LB7 EZ Module for the Chevy/GMC
Duramax® Diesel LB7. The EZ module has been developed and produced
from the highest quality materials available to ensure the best performance for
years to come. If you have any questions, please contact Edge Products. We
will be very happy to answer your questions about our complete product line (1888-360-3343).
The EZ Module is an add-on Engine Control Module (ECM) for the Duramax®
Engine that offers additional features not available with the factory setup. Since
it is an add-on ECM, it uses all the factory data, and then enhances the factory
settings to optimize your truck’s performance.
These features include:
• Engine temperature monitoring and power increase from the EZ module
as engine reaches operating temperature
• Three selectable power level settings that can be changed on the fly
• Smart power control during torque converter lockup to allow a smooth,
easy torque converter clutch lock-up
The EZ module offers a large power increase over stock throughout the rpm
range, but the power is most noticeable in the midrange rpm’s. This greatly
improves drivability and towing performance. Transmission downshifting is
greatly reduced, especially while passing or towing.
The EZ also regulates power delivery based on engine temperature. This means
that while the engine temperature is below 140° F no additional fueling is
delivered. At 140° F the module begins delivering fuel at 25% of the calculated
additional fuel, and the percentage increases as the engine temperature
increases, until at full engine temperature (174° F) the EZ delivers 100% of the
calculated additional fuel.
