Pro Driver? Where can I purchase...?

[Tully]

Have a 1990 Detroit Diesel Silver 92 engine. Where can I purchase a Pro Driver at? I checked Ebay without luck.

Is the install pretty easy? Looks like I have a Test Port in the aux.air compartment just under the driver side compartment.

What do these usually run $ wise and what type of info do they provide other than miles per gallon?

Thanks,

Tully

Tully,

I'm going to check with a buddy of mine who works at DD. In the meantime, I found this link below.

Note, I have a Pro Driver DC (which can take an optional data card for the driver), however it shows this unit as a "Optimized Idle". You may want to talk to these people before ordering. I don't believe you want an optimized idle module.

Hey Ray ask what this pro driver was---well guess what I have on one my bus I guess I just didn't know that's what it is called. Another learn day.

HI Sid,

Actually, you *may* have a ProDriver, and maybe you have the mini-version which is standard on the XL2?

I just found a link to the manual for the ProDriver DC, which is the "extra" unit I have in my bus.

If you read through this, it gives you a great idea of it's capabilities.

Still trying to locate a reasonable source for them.


The remote unit is much more powerful than the mini-pro-driver unit that is in the dashboard on most XL2 units. (maybe newer XL units too)

Thanks Ray,--- I shot an email to see what price is and if it will apply to my year engine/coach.

The Optimizer does not look like something I would want or need.

If you do run into another source for the Pro Drive, please let me know.

Thanks,

Tully

They have black boxes and laptop units (laptop unit not for computer challenged though)

I really like the VM-240, but at $1995.00 I think I will have to bow out on that one.

Tully,

Got a response from my friend. He said go to http://www.ddcsn.com and click on the SERVICE locator.

He suggested contacting dealers listed to get a price.

You DO NOT want the optimized idle, you want the Pro Driver or Pro Driver DC.
