Help!

I have a DEI Python 460HP, and the remote's antenna module(Directed HF plus) was attached to the windshield.  A windshield that got cracked.  And replaced.

The auto glass installed didn't see the module attached to the old windshield, and the cable got severed right at the module.  I need to rebuild that cable and plug the module back in.  But I don't know the proper pinouts for the cable.  Which color wire connects to which pin in the module?  HELP!

Buy a new antenna/receiver.... what you want to do will be a headache, and after your done probly won't work . Just get a new one!

Sounds good.  Where can I get just the cable? (or cable + antenna module) ?

Check here...you can buy an XHF antenna if you'd like, they have the same plug to the alarm and are less subject to RF interference.

I would call the glass company and get them to make good on their mistake.

Ouch!  Looking at the prices, I'm starting to think it's more effective to just spend the time to rebuild the cord I have.  The antenna itself is fine, just the cord got damage.  Plus, I used to build computer cables for a living, so I know my way around various crimp tools (or in this case, tweezers and my swiss army knife's tiny pliars)

Does anyone have a DEI cable they could just check the order of the colors at the antenna side of the plug?  Please?  I just need to know the pinout

Looking at the BACK of the connector (the wire side)

With the two angled corners on the BOTTOM of the connector (the way it plugs into the module)

From LEFT to RIGHT            GREEN -RED- BLACK -BLUE

You may only have 3 of those wires, or all 4.

Oops, I just noticed, you wanted it for the ANTENNA!

Here..

With the "U" shaped index plug on TOP of the connector

And the 4 "pin locks" on the BOTTOM of the connector......... colors are...

LEFT to RIGHT    GREEN -  RED - BLACK - BLUE

Great! Thank you, I think I can rebuild the cable from that.  Thanks!
