Scanmaster Connections

From Brent's site: For the connection to the ALDL wires, I used red Scot-Lok (I think that's the name of them connectors. They allow splicing into wires without having to cut any wires. They make splicing very easy when working in a tight area such as this! On my 96SS, the connection is as follows: The ScanMaster RED wire is the power wire and gets connected to the ORANGE wire on the ALDL connector in location #16. This is a nothing more than a power feed from the cig lighter, fuse #11. The ScanMaster BLACK wire gets connected to the BLACK wire on the ALDL connector in location #4. This is your ground wire. The ScanMaster WHITE wire (data wire) gets connected to the TAN wire on the ALDL connector in location #9. Keep in mind, these are locations for a 96 with an OBDII connector so if you have a different year, yours may be different. Here is what the connections look like when finished.

So are the wires the same on a 94'? He has a 94' PCM in his 96' SS.

i would buy a plug in so you can plug and unplug it when you want to. If so you can't program with it spliced like that. At least mine wouldn't. I unspliced mine and bought a plug from akm cables.

You can program it like that, just get a on / off switch and splice it into the data (white) scanmaster wire, and turn it off when using another program. I am pretty sure the connections were the same on mine as on brents, i think it is a tan wire from the aldl. Then I just used a different power and ground since they are easier to access then the wires at the aldl.
