Anyone have a power commander III USB reprogrammer?
Looking to see if anyone has a Power Commander III USB reprogrammer to update my firmware so I can use my multi-function hub. I would like to see if anyone could let me borrow it? It is just something I cant see buying for a one time use. If anyone would be willing to help me out you can email me at dragbikeracr@hotmail.com
Thanks

Dyno Jet said I basically corrupted the PC III (they said it happens all the time). He said regardless I would have needed the programmer because my firmware is version 1.0.0 and needed to be upgraded for the multi-function hub to work. I saw on the power commander website the PC III USB Reprogrammer Software (to Install Firmware). However, he was saying I need the actual programmer as pictured above.

1badzx12r, that is where my problems started. I didnt have the 9 volt attachment so I had to do changes with the bike running, and thats why it got "corrupted". Well as of yesterday I bought the 9 volt hook up but its still giving me the "error connecting to power commander". I havent tried to used the programmer that is downloadable on the website, but I dont think it will be that easy.

I had to do this on my 10r last month... The PC is old (made in '04) and had v1.0 firmware... apparently that's the only firmware that requires the use of a reprogramer, and onced updated, you won't need to use one again for future updates.
Anyhow, any dyno tuner will likely have a reprogramer to lend... Mine just mailed his to me.
Can't remember now who bought my ignition module... but they are a forum member, and I sent them a reprogramer with it.

never use the 9v more than once. It drains them FAST! if you know of someone that has the ignition module they will have the programmer.
