Replace / Repair odb ii connector

[tonyjsan]

Appears my odbii connector is going bad, loose connection.

When I connect my BT odbii device if I push it in one direction it might work for a bit then stop (meaning all leds go out etc.), I've tried 3 odbii devices all do the same thing, feel it's not my BT odb ii devices.

Couple questions

1) Has anyone replaced there odb ii connector, if so any tips (from what I've read I can move wires to new connector similar to the old rs-232 serial)

2) I found a wire diagram of the odb ii posted in another forum by mopar1973man, I'm assuming that since odb ii a standard of sorts, wiring is universal but, diagram shows Fuse 12 inside cab of truck left of dash, is for odb ii power, this correct ?

Thanks in advance

I think you have your bases covered.  I would snap a picture of placement of the wires just to make sure, but it should be pretty easy.   

 

I think 12 is right for the fuse.  I think our trucks only use 4 or 6 wires in the OBD

I've got a wire diagram in the General Cummins section for CCDnetwork.

Moved here.

I'll be doing the same thing soon. I'm tired of my ScanGauge always going in and out of power. If I get mine done before you, I'll share my experiences

Thanks for the wiring diagram as well!
