ALDL OBD 1 cable

[Quickstop [UK]]

Where do I get this from? All that seems to be available are the OBD II cables. TTS do not hold the OBD I anymore

No luck on E bay either.....

Re: ALDL OBD 1 cable

Are you looking for the entire cable or jsut the molded ALDL plug?

I have a OBD1 Molded ALDL cable i ahd started modding to make my own cable.
It is the Molded plug with a 6 or 8 strand cable about 6 feet long.

I can't remember what scan tool I scalped it from but I am not going to use it.

If you are interested in using the molded end along with your existing "homemade" Datamaster or Diacom cable this might be what you need.

Re: ALDL OBD 1 cable

I have no cable at present. As far as AKMcables go, I am not planning on spending around $100 for a cable!!!!!!

Loeryder, what would i need to do to yours to get it to work with datamaster? Do I need to add the RS232 connection to it?

cheers

Didn't say I was endorsing their prices, just answering your initial question.

sytyguy - didn't mean to suggest you were! thanks for the info anyway. I e-mailed TTS and got the same details from them. There is some interesting info on that site anyway, so much appreciated!

Re: ALDL OBD 1 cable

You can take the home brew cables PPI Typhoon was making and splice the molded ALDL plug I have onto it.

The RS232 DB9 connector for Datamaster has some simple logic circuitry in it so just my cable would not sync up without it.
