I got this cable from ebay, and I wonder how can I know which wire is is one?? I have a multimeter and I wonder how can I test the wires before to solder them, help is appreciated, thanks.

here are some pictures:

 

I was going to say that you should really post this question on the uberdata board, but you already did. Part of your answer is there.

 

http://www.ecimulti.org/uberdata/

That's where I found all the information to hook mine up. Look in some of the older threads there.

Sorry that's not very helpful, but I can't really even see your pic anyway.

Edit: I can't see the second pic very well...the first one is good.

 

the first word in the post topic should be your answer to all of those questions about it.

But it does look like the right cable. get out the multi meter and check.

 

I have the multimeter, but how do I check,, I'm not very familar with a multimeter

I suppose I plug the thing in the PC and then I check but I dont know what data I'm looking for.

thanks for the inputs.

 

well just as a hint, does the circuit board have ground tx, rx, and mbus writen on it on the side where it connects to the PC? take the little board out and take a look at the back.

 

ok I've checked and

PC side:
red = V+
white = D+
green = D-
black = G

ECU side:
black = 7
blue = 8
white = 9

should this give me some inputs?

 

ok I've checked the resistance and here it goes:

PC side-------------ECU side

white(D+)----------white(9)
black(G)------------Blue(8)
red(V+)-------------black(7)

so the green is useless?

from my test the blue should be soldered to CN1 pin, at least I think cause of the "g" mention on the PC side. maybe I'm wrong though.

 

If you're interested, I'm going to be getting a shipment of molex connectors. They make for a clean nokia usb cable install onto your ECU. Just like how hondata is: clean. They made me order a minimum . 1.50 and you'll get 2 pairs. LMK

Looks like my ACL

 

what is an ACL???

 

looks like you are on the right track. The green will not be used.

 

hi there, so do you have any clue about the terminology of the D-, D+, V+ you can see it clearly on that picture.



this is on the PC side,,, it kinda confuses me, cause I was thinking that the "D" would stand for data+ and data- and V+ for voltage,,, maybe I did my test wrong with the multimeter, I have puted the multimeter in Ohm function 200M and I looked for resistance between the PC and ECU side. should I try something else with the multimeter?

thanks.
