Where did you find that ODB2 extender that has the separate wires so you can see the pin outs? The only ones I could find by searching has the wires bundled which would require cutting & a continuity test until you find the right ones. Or has someone found a better way to swap or combine pins 3 & 7?

in an old thread over on the ross-tech forums:

Cool. I see it's an earlier Cayenne, "Pre UDS".
You could try routing pin 15 (the second K-Line on your interface) to pin 3 of the Cayenne's DLC. That way you should be able to get everything in one fell swoop.

just another data point... i purchased an obd 2 cable extender like the OP so i didn't have to mess with my vcds cable. just connecting 3-7 for me didn't seem to work, nothing would connect, so i connected 3/7/15 wires all together and now i can connect to everything!

Hi I have purchased a Vag-Com cable - and now I have downloaded VCDS lite.
I have connected (on the inside of my $12 VAG-COM cable) pins 3, 7, & 15.
I tried connecting just 3 & 7, and 3 & 15. Seems to make no difference?
I have a 2004 Cayenne Turbo. With any iteration of "cable-mods" I can connect to engine, trans, ABS modules. Yet I cannot connect to air-bag module? Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong?
Which "cable adaptation" do I need to use on my 04?
thank you

Were any of you guys able to connect to the ECM? I have a 09 957 Turbo and I was unable to connect to the ECM with the pins shorted, or not shorted. I was however able to scan most of the other modules including the transmission. Thanks.

Hi all,
In case anyone using VCDS is interested I managed to reset the Service Now message in a 2004 CS:
With this VCDS guide as reference I tried the SRI reset option in VCDS main menu but that did not work. Next I went to the Cluster Module 17 and read the channels listed in the link´s first picture: for my car only the channels 40,41 and 44 worked.
In each of the channels I just entered the MAX value that it would allow me and after saving all three, the remainder is gone.
Channel 40 max value is 100
Channel 41 max value is 1440
Channel 44 max value is 1440
I don´t how to set the values to get a remainder for a specific period of miles or time, but because I am following my own service intervals since I bought the car I just put the max value.
hope it works for you guys.
