please be sure you know your installation scenario before ordering the cable.
If you find that you have purchased the wrong connector type for your installation, please contact us so we
can provide a replacement cable or direct you to an appropriate adapter cable.
PASSENGER VEHICLES
To install into passenger vehicles, locate the OBD port near the driver footwell (typically). Firmly press the
cable into the receptacle. Connect the other end of the cable into the appropriate port on the HE5500.
COMMERCIAL VEHICLES
To install into commercial vehicles, locate the J1939 port in the vehicle and connect the cable. Connect
the other end of the cable into the appropriate port on the HE5500. This port can be located anywhere
within the vehicle, consult your vehicle manual to find the location of the connector.
