1999 Dodge/Cummins Nexiq Issue
I currently use Cat, Detroit and Volvo laptops for work and a Cummins system in my truck and rely on the Nexiq data connection for everything. It works great!
I recently purchased a Nexiq 3 for my 1999 Dodge/Cummins. I noticed that the 1999 harness uses a 3 pin triangle connector and the 2001 harness uses a standard 3 pin connector. Both are located near the ECM. However, the Nexiq adapter only comes with the triangle 3 pin connector and not the standard 3 pin.
I tried to access the ECM on my 1999 model yesterday and it would not work and I got a communication code error regarding the check engine light. I was able to fix the error on another device.
FYI: I'm connecting a 1999 datalink to a Quadzilla and I noticed that the triangular 3-pin connector only has 2 wires.
What am I doing wrong? Why isn't it working as expected? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Error 106 When Trying to Update CIC
Hi, I’m trying to update my CIC to version C1A, but I keep encountering Error 106. Here’s what I’ve attempted so far:
- Imported SP data using the BMW coding tool (selected SP source -> Update SP data -> WINKFP update).
- Verified that the update file is located in the Ediabas\ecu folder – everything looks good there.
I’m trying to update using both ICOM Next and ICOM B, with connections via OBD and MOST ports. On the ICOM B, both the SYSTEM and MOST LEDs are green.
I used Easy Connect with the following settings:
- Type: REMOTE
- IP:The ICOM IP is shown in Itoolradar
- Mode: MOST_ASYNC
I selected the ICOM Next BMW lock and clicked check, but no errors were displayed during the process.
I’m unsure why this error keeps occurring. Thanks in advance for any help!
EDIT: I managed to resolve the error. It turned out that the ULF module wasn’t functioning correctly, which caused a false MOST ring break. After disconnecting it and bridging with the MOST loop, I was able to proceed with the update.
If anyone has better solutions, please email sales@obd2tool.com.
