ECU Adapter Looms
These looms enable the CDL3 to connect quickly and easily to your vehicle's ECU - whether factory or aftermarket - to access important engine data for display and/or logging. Some of the common channels received are:
Engine RPM
Throttle position (engine)
Engine temperature
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP)
Inlet air temperature
Mass Air Flow (MAF)
Barometric pressure
Load point
Exhaust temperature
The loom you will need depends on the ECU in your vehicle:
| ECU Adapter Looms | Description |
 | CDL3 to OBD-II LoomThe OBD-II loom is a plug-in adapter that connects the CDL3 terminated loom (supplied in CDL3 Track Kits) to the standard, on-board diagnostics port of many modern vehicles. This enables the CDL3 to display and log a selection of channels, which differs from car to car. Vehicle compatibility will vary from region to region, but as a guide most cars built after 2007 have an OBD-II connector. |
 | CDL3 to CAN ECU LoomThis plug-in adapter joins the CDL3 terminated loom (supplied in CDL3 Track Kits) to the standard MoTeC CAN communications connector used by MoTeC M84, M400, M600 or M800 ECUs. It makes 70+ ECU channels available to the CDL3. This loom will also work with other manufacturers' CAN-based ECUs, with the exception that the round AMP connector must be removed and replaced with a suitable connection for the relevant ECU. |
 | CDL3 to RS232 ECU LoomThe RS232 ECU loom joins the CDL3 terminated loom (supplied in the CDL3 Track Kits) to the D9 RS232 communications connector used by MoTeC M4, M48 or M8 ECUs. This loom will also allow connection to many other RS232-based aftermarket ECUs; custom communication templates may be required. The RS232 ECU loom can provide 40+ ECU channels to the CDL3. |
Other Accessories
