no but it should work! I was almost going to use this to get a speedo on my trimatic equipped setup but found an alternative solution.

The Echo check box should be selected. "Saying cable is found" is good. Does it also find the cable when plugged into the car, with the ignition in the Off position? (That would also be good.) Finally, it may be helpful to know more about this cable.

Oops! This thread had come back to life, but I forgot to check the date of that particular post. My bad.

Hi Ryan,

In the opening post, it states :

"VR/VS ... This data bus allows for only one device to communicate at a time and connects all the major modules – BCM, ABS, SRS, ECM etc."

To avoid confusion, it would be helpful to note here that in the VS, the SRS has its own separate data bus.

Joe.
