I just bought a used Predator from another member who has sold his 05 for an LBZ. He put the stock tune back before shipping to me.
After going thru all of the warnings it says (tool is locked to different vehicle) Yes I pulled the 3 fuse uder the hood.
Any suggestions before I call Diablo
Please no bashing of the seller, he's an honest man here.

It might have had some speedometer changes left in his truck or something. I think you might be up a creek without a Predator.
I pickup tractors from a customer in Turlock on a regular basis. Small world.

Yeah it's funny how the world is so big but on the other hand it's so small once you start talking to people.
Should I start calling Diablo.

Yeah, but I don't know if they will help. Let us know how it turns out. You might try to track down the other truck to check. Might not be possible.

Other truck has been sold. I'm hoping that I'm doing something wrong. Hopefully somebody will have an answer. I will call Diablo at last resort.
I'm hoping to get this figured out early today. I will not be on the computer as of tonight at 5:00 until monday morning.

Sounds to me like he put the stock tune and he should have put the factory tune in. There is a difference.

Thanks John for helping.
How would one restore/reset if truck has been sold. Probably a stupid question.

FWIW for future reference I had the same problem. I lent my Predator to XR-Freak to try. When he got his he put the factory program back into his truck from my Predator and installed a tune from his Predator. When I came by and picked my Predator up I tried to install a tune back into my truck. It said it was locked to a different vehicle. XR-Freak put the stock tune back into his truck from his Predator and then did the same thing with my Predator. It then worked on my truck and his truck suffered no ill effects and he was able to install tunes using his Predator.
