FreeSSM OBDII cable

Post by Allanon93 »

Does anyone have any links to any cables that work with the free SSM software? I have been looking around for one. They are either links to a lot of generic ones, or cables from other countries and take a long to ship.

So I found a cable that works. But here is the weird thing it will communicate with the TCU, but not the ECU. Any ideas why? Any input would be gladly welcome.

^ If you mean the two GREEN plugs under the dash, DO NOT PLUG THEM TOGETHER! This resets the ECU and puts it into diagnostics mode.
