Having problems with your 7.3 U7170?? Post up your current problem(s) and make sure to include the CALID and revision or we will not be able to correct any issues.

Plugged the Predator U7170 into my 2000 Excursion 7.3 today and the Predator display does not start up as it did when I first purchased the unit and programmed.

Check the fuse for your cigarette lighter?? It and the OBD-II are on the same circuit...

So....besides codes on the 85 HP tunes, all ids good in 7.3 land??

I got the predator a month ago (U7170) V. 9r05. I installed 110, 85, and tow. I want to use the 85. I hear its best for fuel economy but it keeps throwing P0605 code. How can I resolve this?

Post the original backup and last tune written and we can check it out.

Just P0605? Only the 85 hp tune?
Please post the last tune written as tuningss asked, thanks.

Last tune written was the original backup because I had the tuner updated from 7r19d to 9vr05. both versions threw the code p0605 only on the 85hp tune.

Options/troubleshooting/show calid to read the calibration ID please.

CAL ID 'TNAA7W3' And the VIN is 'HEX'

On 85 tune

My bad Mikel. The code is P0603. I double checked it today just to make sure. sorry.

Ok, I'm new to the world of Diablosport. I have a friend who suggested I try one, so I went ahead and bought this product. I have tried all three stock tunes and the only one that causes issues is the 85hp tune. It installed without any trouble, but after running the truck for less than a mile the check engine light came on. Again, on stock or with the 40 or 110hp tune I did not experience this problem. The codes I read were P0602, P0605, P1211, and P1690, all of which the predator said are normal for tuned vehicles. Then on the next page it showed me code #P0603, which it listed as a power control module keep alive memory error. I went ahead and cleared the codes and reinstalled the 40hp tune...no problems. My CALID is 'TNAA7W3. I am running predator v. 9r04. If I need to I can email you both the original tune and the 85hp tune so you guys can check it out. I would really like to get this resolved because I am looking for a tune to help increase my mpg's. I'm a pretty conservative driver and was told that the 85hp tune would probably be my best bet.

Thats the same issue I have. Im just going to run the stock until they find a way to cure it. By the way how do you post the tunes that they ask for? I have the program on my computer already.

i just bought a pedator for my 99 7.3 from my friend hooked it up to my truck and it said it was writting it to the 110hp after it finished my truck would not start i spoke with some people over the phone and had gotten a password to force it back and i was told it needed to be updated i tried to update it and it all loaded over but now it tells me that the application is missing or corrupt and it wont hook up with the computer anymore any ideas?
