Default OBD2 broken wire

Hi

Had a google for the wiring diagram but had no luck with what I'm after.

I have an ECUDatascan and am getting an error, forgetting the actual wording, the cable is not connected.

First plan was to send the cable back, but a hacker has gotten to the ECUDatascan web page before I got the address.

Rather than buy one on fleabay, I thought I would have look at it at work, as I should have done in the first place.

Inside the plug (the big bit) there are 2 small boards. One has a "fly" lead that connects from one side of the board (next to 4 pins) to the other 6 pins. The 4 pin side is connected, the other side is not.

What I require to fix this is for someone to undo the 4 phillips head screws and tell me which pin the fly connects to. In my plug this is a purple wire. From the OBDII plug pin end it looks like its the 3rd pin (not the end that the cable connects)

Your help would be appreciated so I don't connect the fly to the wrong pin and let the smoke out.

Cheers

Tim
