91 300e w124 16PIN DTC question - Canadian

[skiier3_9]

I was working on a friend's Canadian 300e and I was going to use the 16 PIN diagnostics module but there was no connector on pin 16 (what should be the positive terminal)

Were the Canadian cars different and didn't have circuit 15 (+) at pin 16? I know that I can just connect the postive terminal of the code reader to the postive terminal of the battery, but I was curious about the diagnostic box.

Thanks!

Hi .
There is no connector in pin 16 in American or Canadian cars that early.
Yes, there is a slot numered 16, but no, there is no electrical connector there.

Thanks for the information. I figured that it just wasn't included. I guess the only solution is to use the battery as the power source.
