<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>This cable is used mainly for 1994 and 1995 OBD1 cars equipped with the 16 pin OBD2 style connector (Camaros, Firebirds, Corvettes, and LT1 equipped cars are a few, as well as newer Australian Holden and Commodore), and has a 16 pin OBD2 connector shell to plug in under your car's dash to interface to your car's ECM/PCM. This cable is the most convenient to use if your car is equipped with the 16 pin connector style, as it allows you to just feel under the dash to plug it in. See our <A class="" href="/aldl.asp" target=""><STRONG>GM OBD1 home page</STRONG></A> for references and diagrams of the connector styles, or see the OBD2 diagram below. <STRONG>Please check under your 94-95 car's dash</STRONG> and make sure it has the 16 pin style connector before ordering this cable.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>94 and 95 cars that are equipped with the 16 pin OBD2 style connector have built in +12v power coming off of pin 16 and ground coming off of pin 5. The 8192 baud serial data comes off of pin 9 in these connectors.</FONT></P>You can also program the instrument cluster on the 2004, 2005 and 2006 Pontiac GTO with our 16 pin USB ALDL cable as shown with the <A href="http://www.757goat.org/gto_cluster/instructions.php"><STRONG>instrument cluster programming software here.</STRONG></A> Shift light activation based on RPM, cluster logo, and shutdown text can all be changed. Other newer GM cars and trucks may work the same way, and experimentation with them may lead to many new software solutions for instrument dash cluster reprogramming.</P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>The 94 and 95 cars that are equipped with the OBD2 style connector actually have OBD1 ECM/PCM systems behind them. If you have a 1996 or later obd-2 car and need powertrain sensor scanning and code reading, <A href="/products/obd2usb.asp" target=""><STRONG>buy our OBD2 Allinone scan tool</STRONG></A>.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>This 16 pin shell cable will not plug into the 12 pin style OBD1 ALDL connector found on most 84 to 95 cars. If you want the ultimate in compatibility for all years of OBD1 cars, including your 94 and 95, <A class="" href="/poducts/aldlbare.asp" target=""><STRONG>buy the bare pin cable</STRONG></A>. </FONT></P>
