Hi,

i use this pinout:
Primary Data Link Connector- (DLC) X84 *Under drivers side of IP

Pin 1 is Low Speed GMLAN (SWCAN ~33.3kbps) - Body Electrical Services Only Pin 2-3 Unused
Pin 4 chassis ground (for scan tool)
Pin 5 data reference ground

Pins 6(+) & 14 (-) High Speed GMLAN- Primary Powertrain Bus (DWCAN ~500 kbps) Pins 7-11 Unused
Pins 12(+) & 13(-) High Speed GMLAN- Chassis Expansion Bus (DWCAN ~500 kbps) Pin 15 Unused

Pin 16 B+ (for scan tool power) 

OBDII	Sub-D	Signal
16		9		+12V
4		6+3		GND-Chassis
6		7		CAN_H
14		2		CAN_L

I connect 6 and 3 at the Sub-D side together.
So it looks like we can use the same Cable (for the Primary Can Bus in the Volt). >> Fasttech?

Bye
Michael

>> yes, that's chassis ground -- shouldn't it be? I interpreted the OVMS GND as the ground for the supply voltage (12V), as the CAN bus has its dedicated "low" line.

Another OBD2 cable I bought connects them, so maybe for a general product GND should connect both, but I don't think there's a difference on the car side... normally.
