I made my own, and it works just fine, but I am tired of not having it on the OBDI connector and it coming off the pins while driving.
I just need the serial cable with the mits OBDI plug on the end for cheap.

I'd like to know too, I've searched far and wide and have only found expensive ones.
check 1glink.com
they have kits/cables for datalogging. :)

This is still pretty pricey. I built my own cable for about $3 which was just the serial plug and adapter. Is there anywhere to just by the Diagnostic connector to put in my own pins?
$50 is the cheapest so far for me... I've seen them for $70 elsewhere... I'm holding out for $25... LOL
Bah, I could be rich if I could just find someone that sells the connector. I would even be independent here! I make a great cable!

Is that what you need? Only $20...
He needs the OBDI connector, unfortunately.
Try to hit up Shiver on 3si. Do a search for him and his logging cables as I am unsure if that is the correct way to spell it. Ask if he still has a plethora of cables lying around. I ended up getting my obdI from him for 25 bucks IIRC :) I believe it is the same one from here

I just received shipping confirmation on his Hybrid software+cable for a friend's Stealth that I am setting up for future monitoring. His OBDI set costs $75 shipped. $25 was a steal for you though!Quote:

Right on. His cable rocks, BTW. I love it...just wish I could find one of that quality that mates to my palm without losing connection....grrrrr
Hmm, that might not be the cable though...Quote:

And I'm sure there are a lot of guys who are saying "this is old news." LOL
Edit: P.S. I am still waiting to hear back from Chris to see if we can get a deal on his OBD1s...
I'm using spade connectors right now and it sucks. It works but not the greatest solution. I had to close the connectors up a little to stay on the pins. The one that you short to ground would go to the next pin and touch it, killing my speedo. It's amazing how fast you can go 0-60 when it's a short. Lol
Yeah I have the same issue! I'm wondering if you can convert from usb to connect the cable to the cradle as it won't disconnect like the small POS.Quote:
