Madjax has messaged me and said there are two versions of the cable and given me a link of where to get one the same as madmod , apparently it's roulette to which one you get when you buy , they are the same cable but different circuits
I'll post a pic tomorrow (left cable at work) Cheers tony |

With the MadMod, the hardest thing is to receive the good cable

the item you bought^ was removed from ebay since the listing is older than 90 days... can you give us the link to the seller of that item, or look in that sellers items for an updated listing of the cable?

It looks like the one with the silver cable and blue plug is the desired one. Vs the All blue cable? IDK i just though id share, ive been looking for one through ebay, but got cold feet being scared of ordering the wrong one. The one i got is:

the one with the longer circuit board is desired. not sure if it reflects in their physical plug case size. i agree with the color of the cable and plug.

Sorry that it's not as easy as just finding a silver/blue cable. |

Ill update once i take delivery but my thinking is:
Blue wire/Blue plug: 50/50 chance you will get the right one. Silver wire/Blue Plug: Maybe 100% Just my observation from ebay though. So just because you ordered the right cable and it being blue wired, doesn't mean my thinking is wrong. My thinking is disproved when someone ordered the silver cabled ones and it ended up been the wrong ones. Did anyone order the silver cable and ended up been the wrong one? Please share your experience. |

Madjax bought his from here: Deal Extreme VAG COM Cable
I bought two from them. Hopefully I win big. I expect it to take 2 weeks to get here at least. Will report back. I think we should also investigate and ask the sellers if they would kindly open a couple up and post pictures, or at least tell them which one we want. |

Blue Plug Silver Cable.... Let us know, It helps if you message the vendor tell him you want the exact one pictured IMO. Please let us know the color of the cable and if it was the right one. |

Can someone point me in the right direction to get the drivers for my BFM cable? I looked on their website but can only find the AFR logging drivers.

Dont buy from here ^^^. They never updated my order status in 4 weeks after payment and I filed a paypal dispute to get my money back, and they never responded to that either. So I ordered one from the same supplier as alieus a week or two ago. It should be here soon. |

Where can I buy a BFM Cable? I have contacted the BFM email but no reply. Is it better just to buy a ebay one? BLue/silver or blue/blue

Anyone try the serial version of the VAG-COM cable? Saw it on ebay here and thought it might fix some problems I have with Romraider. When I resume from hibernate on my carpc Romraider can't reconnect to the ECU without me pressing the "reconnect" button (this is with a tactrix 1.3). I suspect this has something to do with USB as I've had the same problem with other devices. The problem went away though when I got rid of the serial to usb adapter and plugged the serial cable straight into the computer. This is what makes me think the OBDII to serial cable would work (for logging only, don't need it to flash).
What do you guys think? Would the modifications for this cable be the same as those for the USB version? |
