An ALDL cable is an OBD1 diagnostic scantool suitable for diagnosing engine fault codes and live engine data found in VR-VY Holden Commodores! The ‘language’ spoken is called ALDL (Assembly Line Diagnostic Link), it is a very unique protocol that General Motors implemented on our commodores. If your interested in hearing some technical geek speak about ALDL, click here to read more. Some of the features and abilities of our kits include: • Reading engine fault codes • Clearing fault codes and engine light warnings (CEL)!

Our kits allow you to take full advantage of this communication line, providing professional diagnostic abilities at a fraction of the cost of factory scantools.

“Diagnostics Made Easy.” In conjunction with our ALDL cable, our Advanced Engine Diagnostics (AED) application lets you have professional diagnostic capabilities at a fraction of the cost of overpriced factory tools! AED is designed to be extremely easy to use. It seamlessly interacts with your cars engine computer (ECM) to read diagnostic fault codes and live engine/transmission information on a modern instrument dash display.

Plug your laptop into the ALDL port of your 82 to 95 GM car or truck and see. USB to ALDL Cable comes with 3' USB extension cable, and Driver/Software CD. USB-ALDL Cable User's Guide. Automatic Driver Installation. Manual Driver Installation.

What you see in AED, is exactly the same live engine/transmission information you would find in OEM tools, except made to be affordable and accessible to everyone! Sometimes viewing live data is not always enough, or too much information to view at once, which is why AED is capable of saving and replaying live logging sessions. This advanced replaying ability lets you review your cars health and performance in your own time, and keep records of sensor outputs to compare with future issues and logs.

ALDL 12 pins connector - front view Assembly Line Diagnostic Link or ALDL is a proprietary system developed by before the standardization of. It was previously called Assembly Line Communications Link or ALCL.

The two terms are used interchangeably. This system was only vaguely standardized and suffered from the fact that specifications for the communications link varied from one model to the next. ALDL was largely used by manufacturers for diagnostics at their dealerships and official maintenance facilities. The connector is usually located under the dash on the driver's side of left-hand drive (LHD) vehicles, though this location was not standardized.

For the assembly plant test system computer that was connected to this vehicle connector and known by the same name, see the article. In the late 1980s the system was migrated to the ADTS system (ALDL Development and Test System) which utilized an industrialized IBM PC with custom interface hardware. Diagnostic connector [ ] There were at least four different connectors used with ALDL. General Motors implemented both a 5-pin connector and a 12-pin connector, with the 12 pin connector (Packard/Delco/Delphi part number 12020043) being used in the vast majority of GM cars. Lotus implemented a 10-pin connector. The pins are given letter designations in the following layouts (as seen from the front of the vehicle connector): 12-pin ALDL connector pinout F E D C B A G H J K L M 10-pin ALDL connector pinout A B C D E K J H G F 5-pin ALDL connector pinout A B C D E Note the difference in pin ordering between the connectors and the fact that the letter I is not used. Unfortunately, the definition of which signals were present on each pin varied between vehicle models.

There were generally only three pins used for basic ALDL —ground, battery voltage, and a single line for data—, although other pins were often used for additional vehicle-specific diagnostic information and control interfaces. No battery voltage is present in the 12 pin ALDL connector. Data stream [ ] The earliest implementations of ALDL were unidirectional and transmitted serial data at 160 using. Some 160 baud models constantly transmitted sensor data on startup, while others started transmitting data when placed in diagnostic mode with a resistor connected to the ALDL port.
