I think my old aldl cable is dying, but im not sure.

I have no idea who's it is. its a serial port unit, that plugs into another cable, that plugs into an adapter, that plugs into a usb converter. its messy to say the least.

on my stock tbi truck with winaldl, it connects just fine every time.

on my 7727 swap project with tunerpro, it only connects if I first plug in the chip burner, then unplug the burner, and install the cable with the 10k resistor. even then, it sometimes takes multiple tries, and has a bunch of communication errors according to tunerpro.

so, is it a bad cable? something else I'm missing? I've tried every driver, etc I can find.

just want to make sure that im not pissing money away. its frustrating enough that im almost ready to rip all the GM stuff out and buy a megasquirt.
