16 pin ALDL configuration

Hello, I have a problem. I bought a programming cable from WOT electronics, but when I wasn't using it the pins came off the OBDII connector. It is a OBDII to RS 232 cable for a 95 Z28. If anyone has this cable can they tell me what slot numbers the red, white, green and red wires go into on the 16 pin connector? Thanks for the help! You can see the pic of what i'm talking about here.

Thank you for the link, I have seen this site before, but it looks like there are only two or the wires in the diagram. I have four. What pin doesn my white go into?

The white wire on your WOT Electronics cable goes to pin 5, if that is what you mean.

ok, so I got all the pins back into the right spots. I could not get any program to work except for datamaster, and it only worked once, I could not get it to read again. It kept saying that it could not connect to the ALDL or PCM. I think it's a power issue. Anyone ever have this problem. Thanks

I have no clue, but if it's saying it won't connect and you suspect a power issue I'd check the fuse that powers the DLC - maybe the CIG/ACCY fuse?

ok, I think I figured everything out. Thanks for everyone who helped. The pins are all in the right stops. My usb adapter is the wrong one and not allowing proper readings. Which adapter do you think I should get? The Belkin F5U103 or do the exchange program at AKM cables? Thanks for all the help everyone.
