Greetings: I would like to fabricate (vs. pay $193 from Baum Tools) a breakout connector; that is to say, a combination male and female 25 pin connector that I can use to observe commerce between the ECU and the FI/Ign system. I am eventually headed toward a digitool, but since my ECU is under warranty (and will be for another 17 months) I am unwilling to break the seals to install the required leads. Baum has a pre-fabricated break-out harness, for almost $200! comes complete with the male, female and connector for the ribbon cable; looks custom, no doubt. Someone must make the Bosch 25 pin 2 row connectors in male and female; the question is "who" and "what do you call it?" Anyone know where to find the connectors? I may resort to salvaging a harness connector, and scavenging the female end from a very dead ECU; but I would like to start by locating new connectors; seems a little easier to me. So: What is the designation of these connectors, and where can I find them? TIA/Roger Roger Bowman - bowmanrp@ earthlink.net Live Smart. Think for Yourself. Transform the Future |
