this no good then ?

Thats for if you have the 14pin in the car.

So I just need the 14pin connector from a scrapper to cut up and connect to my obd2 plug, then the consult will plug into the 14 pin I got and modded ?

I could solder a 14 pin diagnostic plug into the wires in the back of my obd2 plug ?

This is what i did, bit rough with the chocy block but like i say i couldnt get it working, though i suspect the consult adapter might be rubbish, so im going to order another one and see how it goes.

No I had not seen your "Consult 2" post, but I have now......
It will work, you just have to rewire 4 connections from the 14 pin interface adaptor to a 16 pin JS1692 plug or stuff the wires into the 16 pin socket with matchsticks!
The 16 pin connector uses pins 12 (SCTX) 13 (SCRX) 5 (GND). & Pin 8 +12V
The 14 Pin connector uses pins 1 (SCRX) 2 (SCTX) 14 (GND) & Pin 7 +12V
Ignore the Clock connection, it's not needed and probably not even got a pin there!
Consult I / Consult II, the communication protocol is compatible.

Your 16 pin connector should look like this:

Ok, so I've got these :

Should i just solder the obd2 connector up to the 14pin as described above ?

opening up the consult, I can't see what colour wire conects to what pin :/

Is it a case of cutting open the moulded plug to see what colour goes to what pin?

 

[christof30]

Just use a multimeter to see which pin goes to each wire, easier than chopping it up

resistance test ?

 

[christof30]

just wondering why you are rewiring the consult, its easier to make and adapter lead 16pin to 14pin, then you dont need to rewire the consult.

 

[christof30]

resistance test ?

Yep that will work a treat.

I'm not really sure which way to do it

With what i have it seems easier to rewire the correct pins off the consult to the obd2 connector

Are you suggesting to get an old 14pin connector from a scrappy as suggested above ?

seems like more messing about trawling scrap years and driving around

 

[christof30]

Oh right well if you dont have a 14pin then i guess its easier to resolder the consult, just follow rayf's pin out numbers and you should be laughing, i find it easier to figure out which pins are which first and where they go, do a little drawing then check the drawing again and crack on.
