Re: Diagnostic Software

Any authorized dealer can order it for you, along with the software instruction booklet, service manual, and adapter cable.

I think you can also get it through dfi technologies on their website. I think it's www.dfitechnologies.com.

The floppy disk DOS operating system floppy is only around $30 but the Windows CD diagnostic software is about $200.

Re: Diagnostic Software

will just the DOS software work fine? I mean I dont really need something that is pretty to look at as long as it will tell me whats going on with my engine!

I have the PDA software Engine Diagnostic 1.0 and find it the easiest to use onboard and underway. A laptop is too expensive to replace if damaged by water.<br />A new version is out now and it can be bought from Bombardier/Evinrude with the PDA , complete.<br />Check for prices in the $300.00 range.<br />The good thing it is afforable compared to other company's that charge in the thousands for hand held diagnostic computers!
