Subject:      All 25 wire cable not created equal (digitool)
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

I found out why my ECU shorted out when I tried to run some round 25 wire shielded computer cable under the van so I could have my digitool mounted up front.

Some cables are made with the wires not straight through. The one I got hold of has wires 18 through 25 all connected together and grounded to the casing. Others have the wires going in at say pin 4 and coming out at pin 12. 

A person needs to be sure they get 25 wire cable that says it is wired straight through.
