ECUTalk USB Nissan Consult Cable Interface - Australian Made
This cable connects most Nissan cars with the 14 pin grey consult port to a laptop via the USB port (without the need for USB/Serial adaptors) for diagnostic and data logging purposes, to check sensors are operating correctly, to check/clear error codes, etc (more details below). This cable comes with a CD containing the USB drivers/install guides and consult software listed below (which includes the ECUTalk software). Now you can help diagnose problems with your car without a trip to a Nissan workshop.
This cable has a miniature (SMD) circuit (see pictures below) inside the USB plastic connector to interface with the Nissan Consult diagnostic port, and it uses the genuine Nissan Consult connector which fits perfectly and on most cars allows the fuse box cover to be closed with the cable connected which makes driving with it connected easier. These cables were designed by us in Australia (so there is no middle man). They use an FTDI chip for USB functionality.
ECUTalk USB Consult Cable
Once connected (and USB drivers from the CD are installed), and the car is on or running and your chosen software loaded, you can then (depending on which software you are using):
View sensor data (e.g. gauges, also ECUTalk software also has economy/fuel consumption/distance, etc 'sensors')
Sensors include (there are others depending on car model): RPM, Speed, O2, Throttle, Battery, Timing, Air Flow, Duty Cycle, Water Temperature, AAC, etc
Log sensor data (for later graphing in Excel, etc)
View error codes, and the number of times the car has started since the error code was logged
Clear error codes
Aid in adjusting idle by locking timing to allow comparison with a timing light
Allow other 'active tests' to be performed, such as shutting off cylinders (if one cylinder is misfiring, you can discover which by turning them off one at a time)
These tasks can be performed with software that will be provided on a CD with the cable:
ECUTalk (our own software, gauges pictured below left)
OBD Scantech 1.29 Nissan (gauges pictured below right)
Conzult (freeware version, picture furthest below)
Calumsult
Suitable for most Nissan car models from 1989-2000 that have the 14 pin grey consult port, which is typically found near or attached to the in-cabin fuse box. It will not work for newer vehicles with the OBDII plug (e.g. 350Z). It wont work if you have replaced your ECU with any aftermarket one like PowerFC, Autronic, EMS, etc (but remaps or daughterboards like Nistune with the original ECU are OK). The popular Nissans in Australia that are supported includes (but is not limited to - just check for the consult port if your car isnt listed):
R32 Skyline (9/89+ only, first few months from launch in 6/89 did not support consult)
R33 Skyline
R34 Skyline
S13 Silvia / 180SX / 200SX (SR20 engines only, not CA18)
S14 Silvia / 180SX / 200SX
S15 Silvia / 180SX / 200SX (check for consult connector)
Z32 300ZX (except for 96 model which might not work with all software)
N14 Pulsar (including GTiR)
N15 Pulsar
B13 NX Coupe
K11 Micra (check for plug, some late model may have an OBDII plug instead)
U12 Pintara (KA24 only)
U13 Bluebird
A32 Maxima
GQ Patrol (TB42E only)
GU Patrol (TB45E, RD28ETi, TD42Ti - check plug, some TB45E have an OBDII plug instead, as do all ZD30)
R50 Pathfinder (VG33E, 95-05, check your port as some later models have an OBDII plug instead)
Been used once but then upgraded ECU to a power fc and have no use for it anymore. .
