COBB AP missing prong

woptang22 · 02-27-2012, 06:34 AM

I took my car in to get an FMIC installed and when I unplugged the AP I realized the fifth prong on the bottom row was missing. I plugged it back in to see if it worked and seemed to turn on and be ok. But Im assuming this is an issue. ANyone have any clue what can be done? Can I change tunes with it being this way? Im guessing no?

If I were you, I'd contact Cobb and see what they can do for you. Hopefully they will repair it for free or send you a new one.

Does Anyone Happen To Have A Cobb Ap They Can Look At? I Could Be Wrong. But The Top Row Of Prongs Has 5 Prongs Bottom Row Has 4. It That Correct? If Someone Has An Ap To Look At Let Me Know. Thank You,

What you are seeing is how they are supposed to be.

5 on one row, 4 on the other.

Yes I dropped the AP and part of the black plu on the bottom broke off, then I looked insideand noticed one was missing so I thought it broke off.

That is normal and it's how your COBB AP should be

That little black plastic piece on the bottom of the AP is pretty delicate; I also dropped mine on the center console and a little part of it broke off.

Yep, 9 pins in the connector is normal! You shouldn't have anything to worry about.
