Hello. I have a 2013 242 Limited S and YDIS version 1.33 with firmware 1.33. I am getting the following error when running the YDS software: System file not found "SE1020.dbf". Anyone run across this before? Any suggestion on how to fix (other than have the dealer scan it, lol).

Well a dbf file is a database file. Sounds like it is missing a file on the computer you are running it on or the file is on the wrong location.

I used this link, got sw free in the video links too.
YDS 1.33
Thanks for sharing the link, great video! But still get the same error “SE1020.dbf” file not found. The dbf folder does not have files with that high of a number.

1.33 only works through 2012 model. 2013 uses 1.7 which is not found for retail sale. I had to buy a different tester, CanDoo Pro to read codes.

Thanks for sharing this. Looks like $449.00 for the base unit plus $39.99 after the 1st year for the annual maintenance fee. A bit "pricey" I will have to look into his some more.

Update: I purchased the CanDoo Pro and had 144 (may have been 145) code (low voltage), and 206 (O2 sensor) codes. Batteries where a few year old so I just replaced them and purchased a new O2 sensor. Installed new parts/cleared the codes and she runs like a champ now.
