Thought I’d pass along, for those who have the predator programmer, what happened to me when I tried to update the revision number on mine.
Mine came out of the box with the 42f file and after reading what the update was http://www.diablosport.com/Downloads.php I thought to myself, why not. I’d probably use the fast logging more than slow. So I uploaded the 43a file to my programmer.
While I was modifying the tune before installing it I couldn’t find the traction control option to turn it on or off, it just wasn’t there. After installing the tune second thing I noticed was an immediate drop in the idle after I started the car. It was steady but down around 500 to 550rpm, normally it bounces between 630 and 680rpm. Thinking I just need to get it out on the road, I took a ride and the next thing I noticed was the speedometer wasn’t working. Next thing I do is look for trouble codes only to realize I can’t, when I check for codes all it says on the screen is P1000 OBD Systems Readiness Test Not Complete.
Needless to say things were a little screwed up.
-No traction control option
-No trouble code scans
-Idle drop over 100rpm
-No Speedometer
Hopefully, I’m an isolated case and others who have updated to the 43a revision with no troubles will jump in and let us know. Otherwise, I’d have to say update at your own risk.
I took a big part of the day going back and forth between the original tune and the predator tune hoping I might stumble across something I missed or some new option(s) or anything else. Only thing I could find different was the speedometer would work until I set the axle ratio for the 3.90s, other than that things remained screwed.
I posted a thread about a number for diablo or someone who had updated their programmer and had a backup of the 42f file. Thankfully, Pertums had it and sent it my way. Thanks Pertums
I was worried most of the day until you hooked me up. I uploaded the file and everything is back to normal and working like it was.
