Selling my Predator tuner. I had both this and a custom tune from Wait4me and I am going to go back to the custom tune. They were about equal in performance, but I cannot re-sell the PCM, so my experiment is your gain!

Most people on here know what all these handheld tuners can do, so I won't bore you with the details, but here is a link to their website.....

I am asking $225 shipped to your door. I prefer Paypal because it protects us both.

Post here or email me at [email protected].

It will be unlocked when it is sold. It is still currently tuned in my personal truck, but I will re install my factory tune and send this one out. I will guarantee it to work. I am not a scam artist. If you would want to check my feedback on e-bay my ID is 3b55. I have a 100% rating there. I do not have it listed there yet because I like to try and sell on the message boards first.

Let me know. Thanks!

How old is it? Is it one of the new ones that log? (The 7193 was updated recently to allow logging and Internet updatability).

I can tell you it was purchased on 9/17/2007. I bought it off a message board (do not remember if it was this one or the Full Size Chevy forum) around this time last year. I installed the tune in my truck and that is all. I really did not explore the other options on it. I only purchased it because I have Wait4me PCM tune that I was not very happy with for a few minor reasons and I wanted to compare the results. I think the Diablosport is an awesome tool that is probably way out of my league to tinker with other than the stock tunes installed! I am too afraid to do 5% of what this thing is capable of, but I am anything BUT tech-savy!

I just figured I would sell this to someone who will use it to it's ability and just run my tuned PCM instead. I did get the original receipt for it from the guy I purchased it from because I was told that Predator is tough on that if you need updates. I never even tried to do anything like that because the Diablosport was trouble free for me.

If there is any way of better answering your questions, feel free to let me know and I will be glad to look for anyone. I need to un-tune my truck anyway for a possible local buy, so I will check to see if it has a "version" number listed.

I just seen in my manual where it has a section on real-time data logging. Plug it in while driving and it records data. I think this is what you are referring to. Hope this helps!

If it boots up and says version 2.11, then it is a old one. If it says something like 9r03, it is a new one. I was just asking as I am looking for a 2nd one for a friend.

Well I know I can do the real time data logging and, although I never tried it, it does have the port to hook up to the computer for updates. And mine says "GM 04Predator 2.1" then "BIOS V 6.01".

I did un-install the tune in my truck so the system is now unlocked and ready to ship.

    • So, do I go elbow-deep on this thing or list it for sale and play dumb? Seems to "runs good."   I'm about $1200 away from having: -a rebuilt injector ($300) -a new cat ($250) -a new cat back exhaust (OE style) ($300) -a new AC compressor ($200) -AC refrigerant charge ($150)   In theory, this should rectify the obvious detracting issues from its value and operability. Cold AC with a non-squeaking AC pulley both sounds and feels good. An exhaust that isn't cut/hacked in 17 different places and doesn't vibrate on a crossmember would make it sound and feel less janky. A working cat would help the stink, and will save the earth, but *if and only if* the fuel system is working properly, which would also address the intermittent "rich" CEL.   Heard a good one... CEL for "Rich condition" means you haven't spent enough money on the truck lately, and it's letting you know.   Rebuilding the injector would seem to be the most important part. Replacing the cat would be secondary. I don't think mine is plugged or overly restricted, but it might be a little restricted? I have no good way to tell other than seat of the pants feel. I hate the smell.   The current theory is I have a rich idle problem: A bad fuel pressure regulator, or a leaking injector(s) being the highest probabilities. I already replaced the FPR but that doesn't mean its replacement isn't also bad. It was a new part from Dorman, but the packaging looked like it had been sitting on a shelf for 20 years.   This is the (single) upstream O2 sensor shown at idle. I'm getting a lot of "rich" it seems. Sometimes it stays high like that and doesn't drop down. That makes me think it's processing injector leaks or a partially stuck open injector.     Other times it looks like this. Nice oscillations between rich and lean, which is what I think it should be. Under load and at speed, the oscillations are nice and tight and uniform looking, high and low.     Fuel trims suggest the PCM is compensating pretty hard at idle to pull fuel out. But it's not enough to trip a CEL. Something about slowing to a stop: brake vaccum booster, EGR, or the EVAP purge is delayed, or there's pooled fuel in the intake again that's draining into a cylinder is enough to set the CEL. Of course, in two days of driving, it hasn't set. I was hoping to actually look at the freeze-frame data when it sets. IAT is high because it's idling on an 83 degree day here.  
    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
