Just hold off doing the transfer case fluid job until you get the Foxwell - it's lasted this long!

Or do the fluid change now and then do the reset later. Lots of folk never do the reset at all. Not my own preference but hey, each to their own....

As for getting DIS up and running - I'm happy to help with that if you are crazy enough. It needs a Windows PC running a VMWare Virtual Desktop application to run the UNIX-based DIS system. Then you need to set up a virtual diagnostic head emulation to connect your existing K-Line OBD cable via EDIABAS to a virtual Ethernet port in the DIS.

(Cue sarcastic comment from Andrew!!).
