Holley dis ignition programming cable

Tom Goldman · 12-05-2007, 12:59 PM

I'm looking for a programming cable for a Holley Annihilator DIS Ignition control........ It is a computer serial cable , DB9 pin female at computer end and a DB15 male at the controller end. ........ This does not seem to be a common cable from the computer supply stores. ..Any help is greatly appreciated. ...........Tom

Tom,I bought a Holley strip annihilator system a few yrs ago.Didnt last very long,Jegs wouldnt take it back.
I will look when I get home and see if I can find the cables if thats what your looking for.

Thanks Everett, Most of the programming can be done with the QuickShot programmer, but the pc cable allows you to do it a whole lot easier with a laptop program. ...... Tom

Oh! you need the PC CABLE, Sorry.
I guess I should send this to Holley and see if they will repair it.It lasted maybe a season then lost tach output.It was the 2nd one I had the same problem with.First one didnt make it out of the shop.Jegs replaced it.They refused to replace the second one.Told me to send it to holley.I ripped it out,tossed it in a drawer and put in a 6AL--- END OF PROBLEM

Tom, It took me 3 tries to get one Holley Annihilator to work in my '98 dragster. These were all new units and had various problems including the no tach signal mentioned. I have a sportsman model on the shelf. It worked for about 2-3 seasons. I developed engine miss problems and replaced the entire ignition system. The Holley may NOT have been the problem as I found a damaged crank trigger pickup during the changeover. Dealing with Holley was not very productive.....I even had a 2 box Pro Model sent to me from their repair dept. No cables, no paperwork, nothing. I sent them a 1 box Sportsman model. I will say I loved it when it did work. No chips and the handheld programmer was real easy to use. I had it velcro'd in my ****pit and could change the setup real easy anytime. Rich

Vic, I'd greatly appreciate it if I could borrow it for about 1 day. I need to make a change on one that cannot be done with the quickshot ........... I will send you a PM with contact info. ........ Thanks, Tom
