Hey guys,

I was going to grab the fault codes from my ECU today, but I realised the connector configuration is different to the one in the service manual :confused: I'm referring to the TH Magna here. I've found a 12pin connector instead of the 16pin connector described in the manuals. Have any of you guys tried reading the fault codes? If so, which pin's did you use?

By the way, I compared the connector to the one in my TS Magna, and guess what, they used the same type of connectors, only the pin configurations was different. The TH only has two active pins, the TS has 3 active pins, two in a different location....

my bad, i looked underneath the dash again and found the real deal, hidden in black and only visible when i grabbed a bigger mirror out.

It looks like they've kept the old connector for legacy purposes as well, interesting...

That might be your auto transmission plug.What colour is it, should be black.

The 16pin connector is black, which was why i didn't notice it in the first place.

The 12pin connector is like a translucent white/cream colour.
