Default Interface = VAG program? or Interface = cable between computer & MMS200?

I think in the long run I'd like to actually own the program (Freeware or Full version -if there is such a thing-) instead of borrowing units, because I've read how useful its functionality has been to other members.

& thanks for confirming the ECU tap. check yah later

Default Takes a very small, flat blade screw driver..........

to get the individual pins out of the connectors.

There's a small metal tang, which holds them inplace. You use the small driver, to press down on the tang, while pulling back on the wire. ;O)

Default Yes, but I'm not going to do it that way anymore... ;)

MAF/CO pot pin 4 corresponds to ECU connector "A" pin 1. It's the only ECU connector with 12 pins.

Default Re: so Simon..

Radioshack will probably suffice. Refinements and updated parts details coming tomorrow, courtesy of patience.
