Evinrude Ficht Diagnostic Software

[sec1456]

I sent an e-mail to boats.net customer service asking what comes with the following part number: 5005388 KIT,EMM DIAG 1.42B. They referred me here. Can anyone answer this? Next month I'm picking up a boat with a 1999 Evinrude 175hp Ficht engine on it and would like to have the necessary tools to be able to care for it myself. I've always serviced my outboards in the past mainly due to issues with previous dealers carelessness. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks.

That part number is software only, they have changed the diagnostic system and it is dealer only, the only way to activate system is if you are a dealer.
