I had damaged a cable and adapter on one of my obd leads and snappy was able to get them for me. I usually charge more for obd 1 vehicles because one, harder to work on with limited info and two only a few shops have them anymore with techs experienced enough to diag them

We currently do not have a rep right now, so was thinking if anybody is not using anymore, than I could take them off their hands.

I will not have a chance to check and see if the numbers are the same today. Thanks Sam

Sam these are the original adapters from my Solus and they go with the cable as shown. I use them with my Edge/

Euro software is enabled, however I did not get the cable adapters with the kit. I have them with my Autel scan tool and have yet to use them, so I was't too concerned about not having them, or even if I need them.

Is the DA5 cable the one that the OBDII DLC uses as well?
All the OBD1 ends should just thread onto the DA5 right Mick? They all are that same style connector on the cable end I believe.

If we can verify that they will work, which I think they should, we can definitely work something out Sam. Thanks

The image below shows the cables for OBD1 European imports

No the DA6 cable has the OBD11 connector permanently attached, you have that one right now make sure I got the #correct it is stamped on the end connector.

Yes all the OBD1 adapters thread into the DA5 cable most will need the power cable attached as well.

My European kit came with an adapter that plugs into that (basically a female obd 2) that then has the serial cable style connection for all the adapters as shown. So you might not need to purchase a da5 cable to connect to the pre obd 2 adapters.

The cable is da4, it has the fuse in around the pins and a non-removable 16 pin. I will try to get a shot of the adapter tomorrow.

This looks like it should work, as long as I can keep the tool powered. An older solus pro that I used a few years ago perhaps had a plug in for power on the adapter like this. Maybe this has one too. Anyways, I will check this out. Thanks
