here is pinout for connector Ford old diagnostic connector pinout and wiring @ pinoutsguide.com (http://pinoutsguide.com/CarElectronics/ford_old_6pin_pinout.shtml)
3 is k-line, 2 is L-line
there is no +12v pin in connector in order to power uniscan interface (the separated seventh pin is supposed to be ground), read *** some lines below
please check with a multimeter if separated pin is gnd and look for a +12v pin in connector (check if that pin is always +12v both with key ignition off and on, and then with engine started if it is +14v approx.)

this is pinout for ford in uniscan interface, k-line is k-in only, l-line are L-in plus L-out connected together. http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/9474/kabelga.jpg
remember this is schematic, k-in is pin6, l-in is pin9, l-out is pin4. ***as there is not +12v and ground in car connector, you must power interface connecting pin1 to battery+ and pin5 to battery-

this is self diagnostic

there is pre-obd to obd2 adapter on ebay
if someone got one, maybe he can report pinout of every pin with a multimeter to find out which pins in pre-obd connector are connected to obd2 connector pin16 +12v and pin4+5 ground

according to uniscan coverage file, it can only give faults with your car, no live data nor adjustments nor actuators, so self-test is enough
but it would be cool if you try with uniscan and upload some captures

Ok manocao, great job,This Forum DK is very good, thanks for all.
some shematic diagram for this cable pre-obd to OBD2 ?

IMHO this cable isn't usefull, because ford connector do not have +12v. so You need to take it somewhere else, but how to connect it to uniscan? so, on the yellow picture pin2 is ground, pin 4 is k-line (don't forget to disconnect k-line out from uniscan! need only connect k-line-in th this pin), and separate "self test input" - is L-line. but uniscan and ford... You can just conunt blink-codes...

H? , with FORD car
When I switch ( L-line + L-out ) has an problem , led yellow blink, but message in Uniscan is ( wiring problem ).
I connected K- line to pin 4 ( STO )
I connected L- line to pin ( self-test input ) STI
I checked with a multimeter and the pin ( STI ) have 5 volts , is not 12v.
L- line of Uniscan has 12v , some problema ?
Any idea for this problem ?
Thanks.

in the yellow picture, l-line is pin5, not sti
can you check with multimeter all pins in car connector?

-----------------------------------------
H? manocao , I checked again , connector of my car is :
pin 1 - not used
pin 2 - earth
pin 3 - not used
pin 4 - STO ( has 12 volt )
pin 5 - STI ( has 5 volt )
pin 6 - fuel pump monitor ( has 12v ).
I have a problem in interface Uniscan , When I switch ( L-line in + L line-out ) an error occurs, message is ( wiring problem )
How to I check voltage in L-line in , and L-line out from Uniscan ?
any idea ?
Thanks.

maybe your car is not supported
try without l-line, with k-line only

Ok mate, Thanks for the help.
I checked with self-test light and run ( flash codes ), I switch L line ( STO ) to ground and STI is blinking !!!!!
But Uniscan not works with flash codes.
Now, how to I check voltage L-line in + switch with L-line out from Uniscan ?
Can you checked voltage ?
My interface is 12v in the line out and l line in .
thanks.

H? manocao , I have an question about shematic diagram of interface Uniscan :
R15 is 510R = change to 2K2
R16 is 510R = change to 2K2
R8 is 5K1 = change to 10K
R10 is 5K1 = change to 10K
Is correct ?
This change is written in the manual of Uniscan.

it is correct, uniscan works at 12v, both k and L
did you try only with k-line?, maybe ecu doesnt need l-line to be waked-up

H? Manocao , I need your help , please
UNISCAN-VISA 1.83 is very good for me, but not works with ford cars, yet .
Ford cars, when I switch L-line + L-out Uniscan stop, ( error message ) not works, any idea for this problem ?
My RS-232 com-port is :
COM 1 ( 9600 baud , 8, N, 1, wardware ) 03F8-03FF irq 04
COM 2 ( 9600 baud , 8, N , 1, wardware ) 02F8-02FF irq 03
which configuration is better ?
any suggestion ?
Many thanks.

i dont know where the mistake is
maybe your car connector is not supported by uniscan (5v L-line vs 12v L-line)
no pictures of your connector in visa 1.83
try also COM2 irq 7
if unsuccessful, forget about it, get blinking codes...
you might damage the ecu when applying 12v instead of 5v in L-line

Ok mate , sorry for question, but
In the folder ( database ) has 4 files, replace old file in the C:\ Visa\ DBCODICI and put only file ( 1_DBCODICI ) ?
but what about others files in the folder ?
