Never in all my Harley tuning years

Post by twedlake »

Been tuning Harley's for years with TTS, DirectLink, SERT, SEPST, PowerCommander, PowerVision and I can honestly say I have never seen a device like this. Just got it Friday, 5-26 and for $360+ I truly expected this to work out of the box for the VERY simplistic needs I have (turn off DoD crap and throw in the stock 87 octane tune, nothing more). I have no desire nor was it ever my intent to spend countless hours as I do tuning bikes in tuning my truck or worse; trying to get the tuning device to work.


1) I open the box to find the ferrite core for the OBD2 to data port cable apart in the box
2) There was a protective plastic cover on the front of the unit but it's abundantly clear this is a used/re-furbed unit in that there are scratches on the back of the unit and someone's greasy fingerprints all over on it.
3) WIFI updates don't work from the device
4) Ignition software updates don't work
5) No way to tell what software is on the device compared to what the latest version of software actually is (can't find that information on the site either)
6) See the same issues that chrisinAR is seeing below in trying to update via the ignition software
7) In addition I have this issue when trying to update over ANY wifi connection from the device itself - "updater failed to Download: Timeout was reached"


I have no patience or tolerance for manufacturers that throw a product out the door with barely any support for it and combined with the mentality of Microsoft in bestowing upon us, your paying customers, the honorary privilege of finding all the problems with your device and associated software as is made apparent by the threads I see here. Just wish I would have read more reviews and posts on this site before deciding to order this device.

You'll be getting an RMA request today for this device.

Just an update to the post I made.

After a few emails back and forth with Mike and a few tests of my own, all issues have been satisfactorily resolved except WIFI but Mike did forward on the WIFI issues to their dev/server team for further research. Being that updates can be done within the Ignition software, the wifi is not of critical importance (at least not to me) but most certainly still important so they'll update us on that issue.

Thanks again Mike,

I too have been tuning Harley's for years. I have the I3 and just spent about 2 hours on the phone with Diablo tech service, just to get it to work. I cannot see but, 1 advanced tune-91 octane. I can only modify tire size, traction control and speed limiter. I do not have all the functions advertised. Where is the MDS disable?, the 87 Octane tune, the 93 Octane tune, the throttle boost? I am accustomed to Vance and Hines, SERT, Thunder Max and Fuel Moto. I am right now very disappointed with my I3. Tech service was good, but I work stupid hours 2pm-2am. The device definitely worked with the 91 octane tune and the tranny tune. Where are the other features?

sounds like you are in the easy tune menu, go to advanced to see all the tunes and click modify parameters to see all the adjustments.

I'm good to go, I was missing a step. Everything is there, now I'm happy as a pig in mud. :D
