I agree D360, I've been looking at the locking tabs.
There's quite a bit of material on the tips.
I'm thinking that some work with a flat file will probably solve the problem.
I'd hate to start whittlin' on the chassis...

It needs to be recognized that no computer/software based product will ever be "bug-free" and will constantly be evolving.

The Trinity is a damn robust unit and works quite well aside from a few minor issues here and there.

It could be the cable manufacturer that did not deliver the tolerances ...

Just installed it today... worked ok... gauges were a bit erratic and read my boost at 26 at idle. Drove down the road and it all went to 0 and said that I needed to reconnect... so I did, and it didnt help.

Sounds like the "bad" cable issue Tim.

Look at the pics in the thread for "cable issues ...

Kewl Mike! :D
That's what people want to hear when there are product issues like this. Kudos..., we all understand stuff like this happens with the evolution of a new product.

Feschuk's post validates my concerns.
I know my cable would not seat and i ended up breaking off the clip inside ...

Ummm...not sure what else to say...I am 100% sure the cable will seat with a bit of force, I have done it hundreds of times, without breaking anything....

How many of this particular model of "replacement" cables have been distributed thus far? I can't be the only one who has run into this ...

Bump...

Mike, you may have missed my response from the original thread entitled "Replacement Cable for Trinity will not lock into port" but here it is for your convenience...

Mike, my wife is constantly complaining about the severity of my "G.I. Joe Kung Fu Grip"; if I can't get this connector to seat, no ...

That's not the "replacement" cable.
I had the same issues with the unit constantly losing the connection. The replacement cable fix the connectivity issues.
And, it was already tough to get the cable "locked" with the original.
Now, it is impossible! :evil:

Which one do U have sfla_srt4?

sfla_srt4 wrote:I have the same cable you have (Thrill-Ride)..... I am running into no such issues with the unit or the production cable.

So which one is it that you have? A or B?

It will come with the production cable.. No problems for ya!

:?: How can you be so sure? It would depend on who you ordered it from and whether or not the vendor had inventory prior to the cable swap.

Mine had the "production" cable when I rec'd it; you might as well call Monday for the ...

Just a thought, Have you tried to put the cable inside the freezer for an hour or so and then install it.

I'll give it a try just out of curiosity..., but really, what gives?

I 've read a few threads about this issue, but I thought the new cable was the remedy. The Monitoring and Logging work a ...

Mike, my wife is constantly complaining about the severity of my "G.I. Joe Kung Fu Grip"; if I can't get this connector to seat, no one will (without something breaking; probably the Trinity housing). I don't want to take a chance. I was very forceful with it already. I'd be glad to send this unit ...

Since the Trininty's Monitor and Dataloging has been so troublsome, I have to remove and reconnect the cable to reboot. Often while driving.(6-8 times last night on the way home :x :evil: :x :evil: ) Unfortunately I've gotten pretty good at it.

Sounds like you've got the "old" cable with those ...
