JasonK Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 Hi all, Hope these questions aren't to silly. I'm just about to install my IC-7 into my Xtreme. 1. Are the two Link Xtreme round ports identical/interchangeable? 2. I have the laptop connected to the port with the red ring and the dash connected to the other round ports - is this correct? 3. Can I leave the laptop cable connected all the time as my ecu is inaccessible? 4. I just read another post where it was found that the CAN hi & lo wires in the Haltech plug need to be reversed. I bought the Haltech IC-7 to Link cable part no. 130047 (pic attached). Does it have the CAN in the correct orientation or do I still have to swap the CAN hi & lo in the plug?

Probably fine, I think other people's issues have occurred when trying to use the 4 pin Link plugs with the 4 pin Haltech plugs, that cable appears to be designed to go from the dash to a Link ECU so should be pinned correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
