Recthree Posted March 19, 2024 Posted March 19, 2024 Hi all, I've been trying to shorten the harness of my FCU ribbon cable, I bought some generic cable online and none seems to work with the FCU. Can someone with the knowledge explain to me what I'm going wrong? Are the wires not routed correctly? Many thanks
Sewdhull Posted March 19, 2024 Posted March 19, 2024 What does the original look like Did you make the cable yourself?

The shorter cable was bought as I thought all cables were the same.
Sewdhull Posted March 22, 2024 Posted March 22, 2024 Perhaps the connector types are incompatible. I had a quick look and there's no wires crossed over so gotta be the connectors looking similar but actually not Perhaps you can check the continuity
Recthree Posted March 22, 2024 Author Posted March 22, 2024 I will see what I can do. Good shout on the connector. Push come to shove I can always just get a polarstar cable and shorten the cable. Thanks for the reply.
