I purchase the predator from Motorhaven (peggy to be exact) and no instruction in the pack, and it looked used, No problem. Then I Hooked it up and the Engine Safe mode comes up, So I call Motorhaven, To see if their a problem with the way I'm hooking it up, remember no instructions, well all tech are busy, so I call Diablo, and they say their working on the problem should have it fix by Tueday to just download from the internet, So now I have to buy a 9 pin connection and power pack inorder to download. That's my first and last purchase from Motorhaven all I ask for is a working Predator and I was told their not going to jump though hoops, I never even raise my voice or said a bad word, but I believe what comes around goes around Mrs Peggy.
Next Time You send a used system out please check them and make sure they have all the instructions and stickers in them. And the problem with the Diablo is on the 5.4 motor.

WASH: Check out diablosport.com. They have a FAQ. It will let you know items you need for the Predator. I checked both websites Supertuner and Predator. Research is the key prior to buying, that is my experience.
The Predator can be connected to PC using a standard (straight-through) serial cable, also called DB9 Male-Female cable or DB9 9-wire Serial Cable Extension. (Radio Shack part no: 26.117B)
Update Predator software revision :
Revisions are available to download from the Download page.
If your PC has only USB connector (doesn't have a DB9 serial connector), you will have to purchase a commonly available Serial-to-USB adapter.
If you want to power the Predator up at your desk, you will also need a 12 Volt (1 Amp minimum) power supply. The plug tip is 2.5mm x 5.5mm, female, and center is positive. (Radio Shack part no: 273-1776)

2004 Screw, I'll be happy to assist you. When you got this message, what were you doing with the tool? Updating it? If so, we can actually help you with that over the Internet. Let me know and I'll provide a solution. No need to send it back, that is very rarely required of a Predator because they can be updated, reset and forced by the end user with codes supplied by Diablo.
