The connector is found on the electric mirrors of rangies around 1986 vintage, I cut one off a wreck.

Agree with those advising against chucking the EAS, how many of these cars have been ruined by doing this when proper maintenance would keep it working. A kit to overhaul the valve body was about $30 when I did mine. Fix the leaks before your compressor wears out, get the EASUnlock, make a cable, then you can look after any future issues yourself at no cost.

Get a Perentie.

Heaps of coils…. :)

But simply splicing in the wiring connector of your choice behind the TTS plug is a very valid option.

X2,

Easiest way if you're handy with a soldering iron and familiar with electrical connectors. If so, I'd suggest the XLR style microphone plugs/sockets, simply 'cos they're cheap, available, and perfect for what you need. Can be had in 3 and 5 pin, and, were initially designed for Xtra Low Resistance to be used in scientific instrumentation.
Because they're so good, the sound industry adopted them and they're now the 'only' microphone plug/socket.

In lay-man's terms, a bewdy-ripper perfect plug.


Besides, going to crude coily thingies means you've lost 'self-levelling', and there's no provision to retrofit the BOGE self-levelling device in your car.

Then there's the legal aspect and RWCs, if you have them over there and the examiner is smart enough to notice...

Feeling embarrased as well as guilty ???:twisted::twisted::twisted:

If I can re-build the valve-body, stuff up, diagnose my mistake and get it going properly.... anyone can!!!

If all else fails.... (kits used to be available from a member here) go here...

Build a cable (or pay an electronics workshop to do it) and you can plug a laptop straight in. Calibrate/change all the heights, read errors etc.
Just one point. Replace the 15k resistor in the schematic with a 3k-5k resistor.

Thanks Dougal. Where does the TTS plug connect into the system to read?
