I think my company will buy an Insite program sometime in my next dream. The journey of a thousand miles begins with one steps. Perhaps you could explain to your boss that for the next 40 hours of Cummins dealer labor, he could probably pay for a new Dell laptop and Insite. I got my dad to buy a laptop with Navistar software and we have already paid for it in increased revenue and fastor diagnosis. ASE Master Truck Technician L2 Advanced Level Certified | ||

Also be advised, if you want to communicate with the EPA'07 Cat you have to use the Cat comm adapter 2 or 3 because they communicate on dual data links j1939/j1708.
