Maybe I'm being stupid, but I can't, for the life of me, figure out why I can't get the wiring hooked up to the point that everything fits together: I'll start out with some pictures,
again, maybe I"m mistaken about what goes where, so I'll just TRY to explain the problem I"m having:
under the dash, A and B were connected
C and D are the ends of the extension that I ordered from Z Automotive
E and F are the ends of the Adapter
G is the OBD scanner/reader
I know that F and G end up together when making changes...
if extension end C mounts into plug A under dash, then D will not connect with E as they are basically the same plug
the only thing I can possible think of is that the wires, B, are what's connected to E
make sense?
was my mistake thinking that the extension is what's plugged into the adapter, when it's actually the wires, B ?
in other words
1) connect C to A then leave it TF alone until time to re-attach B, then attach B to D
2) Connect B to E
3) F to G
4) do whatever I need to do with the Jscan
5) remove E, F & G
6) Plug B into D & tuck up under dash
again, don't feel bad about pointing out my stupidity, I"ve got thick skin
