Tuscan diagnostic cable - where to get one?

[Technoholic]

I need to buy one asap, does anyone know the best place to get hold of one? It's the 3 pin to DB9 type I need.

Thanks

It's not quite a DB9, though it is a 9 pin 'D' type

Thanks I actually got one off eBay in the end.

And if we’re being really pedantic, there’s no such thing as a DB9, proper name is DE9 but DB9 was incorrectly adopted years ago due to the DB25 that existed commonly in a D size shell, whereas the 9 pin is really in an E size shell.

But whatever!

This is good to know, I find it very interesting how things are manipulated in one way or another
