Unable to read accelerometer

I believe that the DB37 ribbon was in the kit of parts this year.

I have seen that in so many posts that we tried both and both worked (and both were noisy). I wonder what makes the difference. Perhaps it depends on which molded cable one is using (though I'm confident we have never ordered one, all came from past KOPs).
