Have him bring it; plug it into your OBD II port. If it's been "reset", it will allow you to program your truck. If it does not reconize your VIN, it will be because the previous owner did not reset/reload the stock program back into his truck from this programmer, and it still "sees" the other VIN (his truck)..

If you do not pay him after this test, he will want to reset your truck back to stock as well!!!

Exactly what Bucko said. I don't have an Edge, but have a Cortex (Superchips). It notifies me when I plug it to my PC or into my truck that it is "VIN Locked".
