Those colors of wires on the two bypass connectors in the junction blocks, I need to know what the numbered positions those same wires are inserted in on this connector-

On the female connector that I circled in blue above, I’m looking to see what numbered positions the wires from the two junction block connectors are in. Using this schematic-

Is there a green wire in #3, a white wire in #11, a yellow wire in #14, and a blue wire in #6 (I can’t tell what color it is but appears blue? The one the blue arrow is pointing to-

@Jimmy07, yes the arrow you drew is a blue/yellow wire and it’s the bypass cables

The one you have is hooked up and wired properly, so it’s doing the exact same thing as the infotainment one will. On the Android version, there is a option to turn on debug recording so you can go through the motions of making the setting change up to the point of failure, and you could submit that log to the developer so he can see exactly what is going wrong. I don’t see that option with the windows version, though, unless someone else knows where it’s at? Other than that, I can’t think of anything else.

I guess my only hope left is to go out and buy a cheap android phone then. I was using my neighbor’s.... losing hope here seems to me like the ALFA program isn’t communicating with the OBD correctly or something I have no clue.

Idk, apparently the ALFA app was updated and it’s now not communicating with my OBD. I’m about to buy a android phone though and try it that way.

I didn’t get a android phone yet, plus I’m gonna have to wait the night to even get the license code for it since the ALFA developer is in Germany I think?

The Android AlfaOBD app is immediately yours and live once you download it from the google play store. No waiting for a license.
