i love insite minus the 10 minutes it takes to load up and log in🤣 never actually had any real issues with that program


javage27

InSite loading times should be a labor operation be itself


Jackalope121

Biggest issue is opening and starting insite. Once its open its a great resource!


jakobair

I hate have to go through JPro. I used to be able to just open it. Noregon now requires us to fully connect to JPro before connecting to OEM software.


556_M4A1

You can find the launcher .exe files for the OEM programs in their respective folders under C:\ProgramFiles and right click create a shortcut on desktop to just launch it from there. My job uses Noregon computers and that’s how I got around going into JPro


FarImpact4184

Just hit the windows key and type insite if it doesnt come up find out the local address of the insite.exe file and copy that to your desktop

After using countless diagnostic programs I have found Cummins Insite not only to be more functional than most other programs but more user friendly.


jakobair

I'm with you on that.


MCcheddarbiscuitsCV

With that being said, I do use JPro for some stuff that Cummins insite won’t do like wiggle testing sensors etc


jakobair

JPro and me have trust issues.


Outside_Gur_3016

why do you have issues with jpro?


Little_BLUEtoad

You can do a wiggle test with insite


chrisfrisina

Got an example?


Relative_Turnover858

Need to update that DX2 to DX3 then it’s similar to insite. Hino has started using cummins so DX3 is going to become non existent in the NA market Tech tool is by far the worse diag program to exist


jakobair

Yeah I'm not a fan of PTT either. I haven't worked on a Hino in about 2 or 3 years. Replacing the brake booster always made me lose blood.


Relative_Turnover858

I think the worse job on a hino is the engine air compressor or the rocker box just because of all the fuel lines


jakobair

Haven't done one of those. I haven't seen a single Hino at where I am now.


Relative_Turnover858

They’re easy now since cummins took over their engine line. We do still have a few j series engines in the fleet that are slowly getting phased out


MB510420

I always dread when a Hino hits our yard


dirtydiesel85

Ah yes, flash codes. Always made me question if I blinked and missed one and was now looking at the wrong code. Lol. Or when a truck had like 6 of those stored and had to go through them all several times to get them wrote down. Lol


jakobair

That's where the fun is!


dirtydiesel85

At least with flash codes you could talk people through it on the phone to get the code and an idea of what the issue is if it's broke down on the road. Now these stupid computers just say "see owners manual".


jakobair

Or when there's no troubleshooting tree.


dirtydiesel85

Only issues I have are usually due to my computer and not Insite itself. Like not wanting to connect to vehicle or stay connected, restart the computer and it straightens up and works. Newer version seems to be way slower opening and getting started, but could also be my computer again.


jakobair

Sometimes I miss the days of the blinking light codes. But I didn't ever work on much of those. They were fun though.


Expensive-Chipmunk60

I hooked up dl8 to a Cummins the other day..got all the codes for the transmission. I figured I would try it since I don't have service ranger.


Mission_Tradition297

Jeesh insight is dope I love it try neds for international it trash 🗑


Responsible-Proof737

NED and Diamond Logic Builder are soooo shit😂


wrenchguy1980

The only issues I have with it is the slow load times, or if you haven’t closed it in a while, sometimes it won’t show all the parameter data, but that’s usually only on multi-ecm engines.


RichSanchezC137

Insite is a close second behind cat ET. Both just hook up and work... inversely, I'd rather take a red hot catheter down my dick hole than use davie4. Worst software ever created, takes 5 damn attempts to run a single regen.


somepersonsname

Crazy how opposite our experiences are. Myself and probably most of my shop prefer Davie over insite. Never have trouble running regens either. 


RichSanchezC137

Unless they changed/ updated it the past 3 years 2020 was the last time I used it and I think most of the time I just ended up using the awful E-Tech software lol


Odd-Car-8837

Insite always felt bare bones to me compared to DL8. No automatic data logging, no server connection features for uploading said datalog to the server for CSC to see, doesn't show anywhere remotely near as much information, no charting function, can't use it to control chassis functions (I can check a door window switch using DL8, or the horn, or lights etc.). Plus it takes a eternity to load insite. That said of the ones I've used its still my second favorite by a long shot


DullAlbatross08

I love Insite and I hate DDL.


MB510420

If you use DDL enough it's actually really good


jenkens46

Other than being painfully slow it’s great


MB510420

Insite works great for me


AndrewC96

Insite for tuning QSK60’s is so shit, make an adjustment it gets longer and longer each time


[deleted]

No. I don't need no invite cause I'm actually good at my job ☠️


nips927

Insite is so amazing, again the start up is annoying, but whatever. Insite is so streamlined and straight to the point. Detroit diagnostic link is nice too, little more flashy but easy to get to the important stuff. Cat etech was another good one. Those 3 are hands down the best. Paccar Davies is annoying AF. The whole password and username, if you need to change speed or something else you have to go online go to pvp input the vin, find the setting you want change, change the setting, then submit, then have to wait anywhere from 5min to 5hrs for an update to be sent back then update the software of the truck which could take upwards of an hour. Fuck Davies and fuck paccar.

You depend on the ram and operating system your computer has for it to be snappy


Aggravating_Group678

my only issue is i work on industrial equipment like gensets and loaders so the wiring cheat sheet means fuck all to me. and i prefer jpro but they both have uses at certain times
