Re: Black Jaguar CAN Issues

Hi Gang,

When I run into these sorts of problems, it's almost always related to bus termination. The approach of putting the terminator into the RJ-12 is simply too prone to shorting out. It's best to run a short length of wire out of the RJ-12 and solder the terminator externally w/ some heat shrink to keep it safe.

HTH,

Mike
