Guys, Does anyone have a good parts source for ODBII connectors? I'll need to make a special one for the Leaf, since the CAN bus we need is on different pints to the ODBII-OVMS cable I already have. Any tips for a good quality ODBII connector with solder tabs? Cheers, Nikki.
We purchased a cable for the RAV from: http://www.obd2cables.com/products/ For the LEAF, you'll want a right angle cable connector so it doesn't stick straight down into your knees. It might be worth asking Gary Giddings what cable he uses. It's probably also buried in the threads on MNL, but I don't have the patience to find it.

Nikki, I've looked at some of those NL thread discussions on can bus, and it seems strange. Normally in such cars, the core data is forwarded on to the master can bus (for diagnostic tools, etc). It would be surprising if the NL did not have something as fundamental as SOC on the primary OBDII connector can bus. Do you know if anyone has tried requesting the standard OBDII fuel level PID: TX: 0x7DF 02 01 2F 00 00 00 00 00 RX: 0x7E[8-F] 03 41 2F XX 00 00 00 00 [with XX being fuel level % XX*100/255] It might be worth a try...
