    The CF card under the left hand grip is the hard drive for the Modis. Without it, the Modis only has BIOS functions.
    When a dealer re-images the original update, there is no charge for it, but it does take up a bunch of their time. It is a pain in the butt for them to do it.

    From there, they can get a better idea of what is wrong, and decide if it needs to go in for repair.

      Thanks for the info Joe, but I believe any dealer should get compensated at least $50 to $100 at least for that time , and fuel idling a truck , when he could be out selling chrome at another shop.
      If Snap On Dealers always carried the image of the latest and greatest software update but were able to just cut it off by model year, then a lot of the holes in older versions of software could be filled up to the the model year cutoff by a reimage. Just think how many old Snap On scanners there are out there with flakey CF cards, who's owners are soon going to replace the scanner with a Chinese Launch Pad or MaxiSys.
      If they could all get their old software cards replaced and reimaged for $50 to $100 for the model year coverage of the original card says, and get the software holes filled that shouldn't have been there to begin with, it would be money and time well spent in smaller increments, and make a lot of customers happy. Software having holes is like having a ratchet missing some teeth, and if it skips you get a fresh mechanism that hopefully has all the teeth this time , so customer doesn't go to Harbor Freight next time the ratchet is missing a tooth.
