Challenger Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 We've recently tried to hook up to an OBD II connector with our bendix software and weren't able to communicate. Called Mack and was told to unplug the 16 pin OBD II connector and plug in a 9 pin connector to use the bendix software. About 12" up the harness from the 16 pin OBD II is a blue connector (behind the dash cluster). Harness Part # 21834218 plugs into the chassis side of the blue connector and has the 9 pin circle connector which eliminates the 16 pin connector for Bendix. Seems like good info to share.

staxx Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Thanks , if you update the bendix software to the newer version it works with the obd II . We were having problems also hooking up to the newer obd II on are natural gas trucks until the update .

Mackpro Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Glad I saw this as I was wondering what I was gonna have to do when a ODBII truck came in for ABS problems. We aslo have the Cummins Insite program but haven"t even thought about that yet ODB hook up yet.
