Title: thinking about buying a Honda HDS. worth it?
Post by: RACEPAK on November 12, 2011, 06:39:29 PM: hi guys,

i used to work at a honda dealer at 2004-2005 and while working there i used the old vetronix oem PGM scan tool, which connected to the 3 wire connector of the 90's hondas. it was gr8.

just when i left the dealer i came across the HDS and i never had time to mess with it,

does the HDS work on OBD1 hondas?
on all the pictures of the HDS i came across with, it seems like there is a 3 wire female connector, but i'm not sure.

i cant find alot of info in thw software or screenshots or even youtube vids,

can cnyone shed some light on this device?

thanks

pretty sure all the techs just use a jumper (or custom jumper) to rock the blinking light just like everyone else...

I can swap IMMO boards in most of the cars, but some vehicles (D17 Civic) don't have a proper board that can be swapped or altered when needed.

Dustin, do you know if the HIM covers that for mid-millenia cars, etc, or what I should look into to deal with vehicles like that?
