Annoyed with overpriced cables using X437A connector for later Model S and X cars, we made our own. OVMS Data Cable for Later Tesla Model S/X <https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10070138/9730443-ovms-data-cable-for-later-tesla-model-s-x> US$14.50, including basic shipping. The cable provides access to the three most useful CAN buses, for later Tesla Model S and X vehicles using Sumitomo 6098-5622 (X437A) connector. It also exposes CAN2+Body bus (but requires custom replacement of DB9 connector to use). Pinout: OVT2 6098-5622 DB9-F Signal --------- -------- -------- 18 7 CAN0-H 2 8 CAN2-H 6 1 K-Line 13 5 CAN1-H 19 2 CAN0-L 3 6 CAN2-L 20 3 GND 1 9 +12V 14 4 CAN1-L 9 n/c CAN2+Body (no connection at DB9-F) 10 n/c CAN2-Body (no connection at DB9-F) Cable: 1m in length, 11 core DB9-F: Moulded 6098-5622 Heat-shrink tubing to protect end of cable Label: "OVT2" in black-on-white lettering, shrink to cable This cable can be used to connect OVMS to a later Model S or X, or for general CAN bus hacking on those cars. Enjoy.
