I have a Tech 2 Scan tool which will power up when connected to a VY Diagnostic connector , however when I connect it to a VS Diagnostic connector it will not power up . I did some investigating & found that pins 4 & 5 on the VS connector are the Negative & Serial Data pins respectively that you jump to read the error codes, but on the VY it is pins 5 & 6 on the connector . Obviously the Tech 2 tool is not getting the earth when plugged into the VS connector to allow it to power up. Has anyone come across this with the Tech 2 tool , do you need to have a different adaptor for a VS to a VY??? As pin 6 on the VS connector is a blank, I thought that I would simply move each VS pin across by one, to make them pin 5 & 6 on the connector & see if the Tech 2 will power up. What do you think guys????

cos vy use different communication systems to the vs, more pinouts in the DLC... and the tech 2 wont talk to the vs even if it did power up, it doesnt have the software loaded back that far
