Did you really mean to type that?

Are you sure the 16-pin cable for the 95's is not actually a 12-pin cable plus an adapter?

What do you want to "update"? The "power program" is useless. The other things that are actually useful - rev limiter, axle ratio, etc. - are just lists to choose from. Nothing that could be updated.

The "power port" at the bottom was intended to be used in the OBD-II (96/97) versions for a plug-inb scanner cartridge, and custom tune cartridges that Hypertech would provide. That feature was not available for OBD-I.

If you really want to use the thing contact Hypertech or advertise for a used cable.
