I got my Mustangs shaker 500 replaced with the revised version a little less than a month ago... but even the revised "B" version still skips a little. Is this TSB anything different than the one that tells you to swap out for a different "B" version?

 

[afixer]

no just a programing update

 

[B-Unit]

by programming update do you mean something that the dealer does besides replacing the system to fix the skips? I have the "revised" version, but it still seems to skip some CD's. Is there anything to help me..?

 

[BradC]

It looks like an update to the process the dealer goes through when trying to fix or update the player. It doesn't seem to be identifying any new problems.
