to all you flashers out there

I have been scanning the forums for ages.
I have a Tactrix 1.3u cable which does not have the reflash connector nor does it have provision for it.
My question to anyone out there who has a 1.3U cable with the mitsusbishi reflash connector can you please for the love of god tell me how the connector is wired up into the obd plug so i can either make one or interface it into the cable i have or make up a jig your help on this matter will be greatly appreciated
i have a KJ Verada and a Tj Sports i need to flash

Thanks in advance

Myxin

PS the cable is logging fine

I'm not too familiar with the OP 1.3, but if it's anything like the OP2.0 - it should either have an extra wire that comes out OR an socket to plug something in.

This additional wire needs to go to the reflash connnector (white plug next to OBD).

Should only be one pin in there. Earlier TF-TH magna have two (second pin is to reflash TCU as ECU has two processors onboard).

Yeah mine is a 1.3 cable but doesn't have that output and after some advice it appears it's a data connection which means I'm up for a new cable anyone got a spare lol

Get an openport 2.0 if you got the cash. Much more functionality.

With an Openport 2.0 do you need the Mitsubishi connector to get it to work with TJ and TH ECU's? Or just the openport is fine for these and thats more for EVO's

To reflash you will need the Mitsubishi reflash connector option for the OpenPort 2.0. Your existing OpenPort 1.3 is a better choice for logging as it will support noticeably higher sampling rates than the OpenPort 2.0 cable, so it can still be useful.
