You will have to make a cable.

Surely we have a forum member that knows where the stuff can be sourced to make a cable. The cable I have only uses 3 of four poles coming from the serial output to the EFILive RS232 plug.

Isn't there a better alternative to buying the Innovate serial programming cable (#3840) and putting the RJ11 connector on it? The lowest price I've seen on the Innovate cable is about $20 delivered & a pack of RJ11 ends is about $6 plus tax from the big box home improvement stores.

I have to believe there is a better less costly way to make the cable. Somebody probably sells that molex plug & a piece of cable for around $5, but who?

Does Google or Ebay produce any results...?

You need to know more than I know to do a proper search. I tried to identify the molex plug that connects to the LC-1, LM-2, but I could not find it after searching for it for quite a while. I imagine if I knew a number or other identifier for the molex plug I might be able to come up with something.

OK. It's a Molex micro-fit receptacle that's required. #43025-0400

[joecar]

Ok, other than Molex, I would not have known that is the name of it (I don't have a LM-2).


I see they're cheap, what is the minimum quantity they make you buy...?
