Product Information

Full details

This AiM Motorsport Power / Data Cable is designed for users of the AiM Solo2 DL GPS lap timer who need to connect to vehicles without ECU support or where ECU data is not accessible. Its primary benefit is providing reliable power and enabling RPM signal acquisition directly from the ignition coil. A potential caveat is the need for manual termination of one end, requiring some technical comfort for installation. This 2-meter cable connects the Solo2 DL via a 7-pin 712 male binder connector and offers un-terminated wires for RPM signal connection.

FAQs

What vehicles is this cable compatible with?

This cable is designed for the AiM Solo2 DL. It is particularly useful for vehicles that do not have an accessible ECU or where ECU data is not desired for RPM logging, such as older race cars or specific types of motorcycles.

Do I need to terminate the RPM wires myself?

Yes, this cable comes with un-terminated wires for the RPM signal. You will need to connect these wires to your vehicle's ignition coil trigger source.

What is the length of the cable?

The cable is 2 meters (approximately 6.5 feet) in length.

Can this cable be used with other AiM loggers?

No, this specific cable is designed for the AiM Solo2 DL. Other AiM devices may require different power or data cables.

How do I connect to the ignition coil?

You will need to identify the correct trigger wire on your ignition coil (consult your vehicle's service manual). Then, securely connect the un-terminated wires from the cable to this trigger wire using appropriate electrical connectors and ensuring proper insulation.

What kind of connector does it have for the Solo2 DL?

It features a 7-pin 712 male binder connector for a secure and robust connection to the AiM Solo2 DL.

Troubleshooting

No RPM data is being recorded

Verify the connection to the ignition coil trigger wire. Ensure the wire is securely connected and properly insulated. Double-check that the correct wire on the coil has been identified. Confirm that the Solo2 DL is configured to receive RPM input.

Solo2 DL is not powering on

Ensure the 7-pin binder connector is fully seated in the Solo2 DL. Check for any visible damage to the connector or the cable. If the issue persists, the cable may be faulty.

Intermittent RPM signal loss

Inspect the terminated RPM connection for looseness or corrosion. Reinforce the connection using high-quality connectors and ensuring a tight fit. Check the cable for any kinks or damage along its length.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This cable is exclusively designed for the AiM Motorsport Solo2 DL GPS lap timer. Ensure your device is compatible before purchase.

Setup:

  1. Connect the 7-pin 712 male binder end securely to the corresponding port on your AiM Solo2 DL.
  2. Identify the vehicle's ignition coil trigger wire (refer to your vehicle's service manual for precise identification).
  3. Carefully strip the ends of the un-terminated wires on the cable.
  4. Connect these wires to the ignition coil trigger wire using appropriate connectors (e.g., Wago connectors, crimp terminals) to establish the RPM signal path. Ensure a secure and insulated connection.
  5. Route the cable safely away from moving parts and heat sources.

Care:

  • Inspect the cable regularly for any signs of damage, fraying, or corrosion, especially at the terminated connection point.
  • Keep the binder connector clean and free from debris to ensure a reliable connection.
  • Avoid exposing the cable to excessive heat, moisture, or harsh chemicals.
