If you do not remove the resistor you will not be able to connect to CAN BUS controlers.
So use a multimeter ( ohmeter ) to check if the resistor is there 120 ohm between CAN BUS pins 6-14.
If there is you have to remove the resistor. If there isn't any resistance between OBD2 pins 6-14 ( on your interface ) you haven't that resistor.
Adaptors are used to connect to other CAN BUS controlers on other pins as 3-11, 12-13, 1-9 and other k-line controlers then one on pin 7
No adpators you will be able to connect only on CAN BUS pins 6-14 and k-lin pin 7.
Good luck

Good morning everyone :D

please help - which resistor blocks the CAN connection. Specifically, I want to make a Ducato.
Maybe you could help me for a moment? Thank you.

:) Hy,everyone! I am new here,and I have problems with my elm 327, is not connecting with ecu(panda 1.2 from 2011) I understand I have to remove an resistance from the piece! I have an B18-3 YMIOT V1.5! If anyone is so kind to give me same help! I attached some pictures of the piece I have! Thanks! :D :D

tzok wrote: 10 Dec 2010, 21:59 I've got 2 ELM327 interfaces, both labeled as 1.5a, but they differ even in the way they blink the LEDs during the power init procedure. None of them don't want to connect to my Grande Punto when using SCANTOOL.NET (I've set vendor ID to SCNATOOL.NET via terminal AT@3 command). I've borrowed an identical to one of my own interface from a friend of mine and it worked just fine. All interfaces worked fine with ScanMaster-ELM. Unfortunately I had to give it back before the FES v.2.6 was released. None of mine ELMs did connected using 2.6, but both work with 2.6.1?!? I didn't tried it with registered version, but FREE opened a connection, so I assume it will work (hope so, because I've just bought FES).
The intricacies of ELM327 interfaces and their compatibility can be perplexing. Your detailed exploration, including adjustments via terminal commands and varying results with different software versions, highlights the complexities users might face. It's encouraging that FES v.2.6.1 seems to provide a working solution for your ELMs, adding a positive note.[

Hello,

I have a elm1.5a cable and am having issue connecting to my Giulia using MultiECUScan. I have tested the connection using MultiECUScan and get an error: WARNING: this interface is not compatible with ELM 327 1.3!

I have tested the resistance between pins 6 and 16 and I get 120, so I think I do have the resistor.

Please can someone let me know which resistor on this board type I need to remove

Does anyone know what is the last version of driver for the PL2303, i recently bought a ELM327 usb and it has that chip. So im wondering what is the last version of drivers that windows 10 still supports. And if anyone know which resistor should be removed on the elms with pl2303 chip, Thanks...

on official Prolific website there are drivers for PL2303

I found the right driver, the latest drivers on ther site dont work. It says phased out since 2012, i found another driver from 2008 which works now i only need to figure out what resistor i need to remove.

Share the other side of the PCB too
Good luck
