EMI could let all of us TEC-II users upgrade for free and spread the good word for them! (wakes up from dream)

Hi all, my first post here. I to have been racing with a Tec II system, bought it new in late 99, overall has been a good and reliable system but last season I started to have a few issues. For no apperent reason the fuel pump relay control circuit shuts down intermittantly. Also It has always had a software problem with key on, engine off pump run on. My question is will EMI still repair these units? I do not want to buy a new system after all the money and time I spent on this unit. Any advice appreiciated....Warren

Sorry, maybe wrong thread for this post?

not at all, contact, the user JON@EMI, he is a software engineer onboard, and hed be able to help you out with that question,

but with EMI reputation, im pretty certain, if there is a prob with your unit, they will fix it, prolly will cost you i assume, dont really know, but these guys have been doing this a long time so contatct JON, and he'll im sure point you in the right directions

card counter,

Don't hold your breath. Consider this:
The initial 4.0 release was back in July 2005
It was originally developed using the Tec3r
The TEC3 options were turned off in July 2006
Been waiting ever since "needs some tweaks", "should be ready ..."
Lastly, if there is no financial incentive to release it for the Tec3r, why should EMI care when (or if) it gets released.

I actually had a release that would recognize the Tec3r and it looked slick - unfortunately, I accidentally deleted it and the later releases had already turned off the Tec3 options.

Jon,
Didn't mean to hit the negative chord, but I've been asking "when" for a long time.

Jon:
I noticed that the latest update was in Jan of 08 to wintec4. Were there many changes? I,m getting my 7 ready for 4 events in May. Let's go see Larry and Jr in June.

Hey Jon,
How about you create a sticky with a estimated release date for the TEC3r version of the WinTEC4 software. You could post periodical updates to the software (fixed IAC bug, cleaning up display, etc..) and the release date so we would know where the code is at and if the release date is (hopefully) moved closer (180 days to release and counting, etc.).

This way one could just check the sticky instead of being in the dark and really know that it is being worked on. You could lock user posting so it is only used for the intended purpose.

Tell Fred Bob asked "Pretty Please".

nefarious,
I think the WinTEC4 countdown clock deserves it's own thread - can it be moved?
