u7194 should work with 2010 chev 6.2l right?

[killerrf]

i see that the gmc 2010 6.2l is support by the u7194 so it should be good for the chev 6.2l right?

also i have a old version of the u8000 and i wont beable to update to 9r17 revision. so can i just send my cal id in to get it to work with this pred? or custom tune will do?

no, if your new truck isn't supported by it, then it won't load a custom tune either, since it won't communicate with the ECM...

you will not be able to update to a revision new enough that supports the 2010's...

i plugged my pred into the truck today and it seemed to read data just fine so it could log if i wanted to. i still dont understand why my pred wont work with my cal ids and just the 2010 support in. if not i guess ill have to move on to something else.

just upload the backup file here and we will add support for it asap.

ok i went and started to do things like normal and it said it wasnt support and was going to read the cal id. then i went continue and it went to original backup or modify stock tune were the only two options. so if i click original backup it should read what program is in the ecm. i did upload orginial backup to my 08 truck before it went down the road. so that should be right then... right? just making sure. thanks.

no, choose modify tock tune to let it save the backup, then export it.

i have latest ds downloader installed and tried updating tool.

1. it says that i have to upload original tune back to truck to reset pred.... well it didnt write nothing to the vehicle. it just read the original copy and saved then it was finished and to call diablosport with the file. which i did on this forum and thats done. i scrolled thru the pred and it shows that original backup was the last written tune written. so why is dsdownloader showing it married to the vehicle and wont let me try updating?

2. as memory serves me right... i couldnt update my pred past the v9r10 revision. so even if i could update the pred... it wont take the new crom anyway too big i guess. so then if thats the case... im SOL or what?

thanks.

[06MonteSS]

correct.. it saved the original backup in it... so it doesn't matter if it wrote another tune or not.. .you still have to restore the original backup to your truck, to get it out of the predator and unlock/reset it, before it will let you update it.

and yes, your older version 7194 will probably have an issue if you try to load that bigger crom revision file...

[mikel]

try it...

[killerrf]

ok... i installed original backup back to truck. it wrote fine. thats all good. pred was unlocked.
so i tried uploading that new 9r18c crom and yep.... i get the incompatible hardware after the ds downloader finished uploading crom. so thats great.

nothing else that can be done or is this it?

thanks.

[mikel]

Thats it, you'll need a newer tool to make it work with that newer truck.

[killerrf]

ok. well thanks for the quick replies.

if thats it then thats it for me and the pred. i think i will get a dyno tune instead now.

its been a slice. see ya!
