Pins 2, 3 and 5 are not connected. Early 5AS units have only the grey (J1) connector.

Connection

RX/TX at 12 V logic level with inverted RX. A CH340 VAG-KKL cable works: solder the RS232 pin to VCC to invert RX.

On the MGF's OBD port the K-line pins differ from standard — 1 and 3 instead of 7 and 15 — so an adapter is needed.
