Guzzi Diag Cables
« on: May 06, 2015, 11:44:55 AM »
Is there a reliable source of the cables in North America, I ordered some on flea bay and only the non active part arrived.

A friend in Latin America needs a set

Thanks

I take it you are ordering them and then sending them down?

If so, on the GuzziDiag thread the best source is listed. Even though they come from overseas, they get to you PDQ and they will work with no hassles. Highest quality.

It is not North America, but the Lonelec kit from the UK works and not expensive.

This appears in almost everything I have read about Guzzidiag, JPdiag and Ducatidiag.

They come with the correct chip unlike some eBay etc. options.

Simply follow the enclosed instructions.

Mine worked first time and that was running XP as a guest virtual machine via Virtualbox on my Macbook Pro.
Just had to click a button to hand over the USB com port from Mac to XP.

Get this:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZKKMLE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Plus this:

http://www.amazon.com/Goliton%C2%AE-OBD2-Connector-Diagnostic-Adapter/dp/B0053NRLHE/ref=pd_bxgy_auto_img_y

That's what I bought and it works like a champ.

Note that you MUST use a cable with the FTDI chipset in it (first cable listed above) or it won't work, so don't be tempted to spend less on a different cable only to find out it uses a different chip.  DAMHIK..... :-[

Norge Pilot,
                    I think that's where I ordered them last time, only one part arrived.

Thanks
