Anyone extended the DDS connection so you can access it without taking the fairings off, if so, where did you get the plugs & cable from? Thanks in advance
Big thanks! Noticed they were twisted inside the loom. I just ordered some braided cable protector to hold the two twisted wires. I did find out that the 12v that powers the OBDStar cable needs to power off the bikes battery and not a spare battery…. Frustrating troubleshooting a comm error then a giant aha moment.
I got a male connector for my battery charger connector & put it on the OBDStar 12v cable, i'll try & get some pics later Andy
No need to twist. The two wires carry the K-line and an earth (old school diagnostic). The only Canbus connection is between the ECU and the dash.
Why are there three wires. The diagnostic plug, although a 3 way Superseal connector, only has two wires into it. The centre of what would be the 3 connectors is an earth and the single outside wire is the K-Line. If this was an earlier 996/748 then the diagnostic plug would have 3 wires. The additional 3rd outside wire is the L-Line (even older diagnostics).
