FAQs
What vehicles are compatible with this cable?
This cable is compatible with most vehicles that have a standard OBD-II port or offer data output via a CAN bus network. It is designed to work specifically with the Innovate Motorsport LM-2 AFR meter.
Does this cable provide AFR readings?
No, this cable is an accessory that transmits vehicle data to the Innovate Motorsport LM-2 AFR meter. The LM-2 meter itself is responsible for measuring and displaying Air Fuel Ratio (AFR).
Can I use this cable with other Innovate Motorsport products?
This cable is specifically designed for the Innovate Motorsport LM-2 AFR meter. Compatibility with other Innovate Motorsport products is not guaranteed and would require consulting the respective product manuals.
How do I connect the cable to my LM-2 meter?
The cable connects directly to a dedicated port on the Innovate Motorsport LM-2 AFR meter. Ensure the LM-2 meter is powered off before connecting the cable.
What kind of data can I expect to receive through this cable?
Through the OBD-II/CAN connection, you can typically receive data such as engine RPM, vehicle speed, throttle position, manifold absolute pressure (MAP), and engine coolant temperature, depending on your vehicle's specific data output.
Is the cable durable?
The cable is constructed to be durable for automotive use, but care should be taken to avoid sharp bends, excessive heat, and moisture to ensure its longevity.
Troubleshooting
LM-2 not receiving vehicle data
Ensure the cable is securely connected to both the LM-2 meter and the vehicle's OBD-II/CAN port. Verify that the vehicle's ignition is on and the LM-2 meter is powered. Check if the vehicle's OBD-II/CAN port is functioning correctly by testing with another compatible device.
Intermittent data loss
Inspect the cable for any visible damage, such as kinks or fraying. Ensure connectors are clean and free of debris. Try a different OBD-II/CAN port if your vehicle has multiple accessible ports.
Incorrect data readings
Confirm that the correct input source is selected within the LM-2 meter's settings for CAN/OBD-II data. Refer to the LM-2 meter's manual for specific configuration steps related to data source selection.
