VGS-NAG2 5-Pin TCU Cable for Nissan & Mercedes
This is a specialized diagnostic and programming cable designed for vehicles equipped with the NAG1/W5A580 (often referred to as NAG2) 5-speed automatic transmission. The cable features a 5-pin connector that interfaces with the Valve Body Solenoid (VGS) pack or TCU port, providing a direct communication link for in-depth transmission diagnostics. It is commonly used for both Nissan and Mercedes-Benz applications of this transmission.
Function
The cable enables advanced functions on the NAG2 transmission, including reading and clearing fault codes, performing critical adaptations and resets (such as the TCM reset/relearn, pressure adaptation, and shift adaptation), viewing live data streams (pressures, solenoid states, temperatures, RPM), and conducting basic actuation tests. It is an essential tool for repairing shift quality issues, replacing valve bodies or TCUs, and performing routine service resets.
Support Car Models
This cable supports vehicle models utilizing the NAG1/W5A580 (NAG2) 5-speed automatic transmission, including:
- Mercedes-Benz (Various C-Class, E-Class, S-Class, ML, GL, Sprinter models from the late 1990s to early 2010s)
