Why You Need This
CAN communication is the backbone of modern performance ECU systems, but many builders underestimate cable routing requirements until they're wrestling with inadequate lengths during final installation. This 3600mm cable solves the common problem of running CAN devices in larger engine bays — think LS swap S-bodies, RB-powered drift builds, or turbo conversions where the ECU ends up in the boot and dash displays mount in custom panels. Poor quality CAN cables cause intermittent communication dropouts, phantom error codes, and unreliable data logging that can mask real engine issues.
The DTM-4 to 8-pin Tyco configuration is specifically designed for Haltech's ecosystem, ensuring proper impedance matching and signal integrity across the full cable length. We've seen too many builds compromised by cheap generic CAN cables that work on the bench but fail under vibration, heat cycling, and electromagnetic interference from ignition systems. This genuine Haltech cable uses twisted pair construction with proper shielding — essential for clean data transmission in high-noise automotive environments.
ECU & System Compatibility
Compatible with the full Haltech Elite range including Elite 550, 750, 1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 ECUs when connecting to CAN-enabled devices such as digital dashboards, PDM units, or secondary engine management systems. Also works with Nexus R3 and R5 systems. Contact our technical team to confirm the correct cable configuration for your specific ECU model and target device combination.

Complete Your Build
Most customers running extended CAN networks also require CAN termination resistors and additional junction boxes for complex installations. Consider our Haltech CAN hub units if you're connecting multiple devices, and don't forget proper CAN termination — unterminated networks cause communication failures that are frustrating to diagnose. Our technical team can recommend the complete CAN architecture for your build and ensure you have all necessary cables and terminators in stock. We maintain comprehensive Haltech inventory with same-day despatch on most CAN components.
