Tech 2 Purchase

[Doubeleive]

Just thought I would post this here...

They have the Tech 2 with a case and all accessories for $289 with "Free" shipping.

They also have the Tech 2 with all the accessories but without a case for $215 BUT they charge $68 for shipping.

I opted to pay the extra $6 and get the case and the "Free" shipping.

Waiting to see how long it takes to receive it.

Anyway, I thought it was a pretty decent deal so I figured I would share.

finally bit the bullet

Yeah, my buddy that has the 2001 Suburban that is having issues was the deciding factor.

I have wanted one for a long time but never had the NEED for one. My buddy is supposed to split the cost with me to figure out what is wrong with his truck so I figured it was a win win.

Tech2 is pretty handy.

I have an old pelican case that i bought as a teenager from a thrift shop ($5 iirc).
Been trying for years to find a good use for it.
I finally have it, a tech2 case!

Now i just need new foam for it...

Good luck. I got mine a couple weeks ago. It's finicky for sure. I'm an IT technician and even I had trouble getting the software to work. DVD came with corrupt files.

Did you get it working eventually? Any pointers?

I did. I ended up having to find some of the software online and googling the errors I was getting. Now I can never get rid of the laptop I installed it on because I don’t dare attempt it again lol. I guess it’s a shop computer now.

Follow the instructions mostly, but there was a step where the Tech2 emulator wasn’t seeing the connector attached. I ended up downloading a separate program that finally got it up and running where the Tech2 could see it.

How’d it work out for you? Any issues with the DVD?
