Hi George,
Got the car back from VW and managed to have a look. The blue wire connects a white wire with a red line. I have taken some photos and attached them.
The plug and wire connect in the following order:
Black (6) - Yellow (6)
Blue (5) - White/Red (5)
Grey (4) - Red (4)
Dark Yellow (3) - Purple/Green (3)
White (2) - Grey (2)
White (2) - Grey/Black (1)
It would appear that there is a wiring plug attached to pin 1 & 2 which is a white wire then this connects to pins 1 & 2 on the connecting plug which are Grey and Grey/Black. You can see this in the photos.
Cheers,
David

Sorry I missed this. Hang ten before you connect. This looks the same as the Audi S4 we working on. Should have it figured soon.

That and I need to make sure I have the latest firmware.

Trying not to input too many characters.
Spilled my drink on it the other night, finally got a new one in today...
It was pretty fun using the mouse with an on screen keyboard.
I was working with a broken keyboard, lol.

Hi new JB4 user here. I'll be honest, i've not read through the prior 2760 odd posts in this thread. My friend said do you want to try out / buy my JB4, and i said yep. So its in my 6MT 2017 PP Gti at the moment. Anyway, so excuse the novice questions. I purchased the JB4 connect app $27.99 one, which has successfully connected to the unit, however i had to use my friends u/n & p/w as it gave me the error about the kit not being owned. How do we disconnect this device from his account and make it mine so i can log in using my credentials ?
Also he was running a custom map 6 which was custom for his car.. I went straight in for Map2 (i'm running 93oct Always Costco Top Tier) anyway until i know what i'm doing and have read this thread entirely, with this JB4, is it safe to assume JB4 on a map2 is safe'ish? i appreciate the clutch is the weakest link..which i'm cool with for now TBH, i just like the power on tap when i need it.. I typically drive reasonably calm so may never need to replace the clutch. Anyway want to make sure i'm not going to be running rich or something.. There's a whole different bunch of maps, and i'm not exactly sure what each does. Perhaps its all in this thread, when i find the time to read it all. Also and this might be in my head.. It feels laggier than stock in the lower RPM's unless i put my foot down, which is clearly when i can tell its got extra power. Is that laggier feel something i can clean up with a custom map 6 tinker ? Thanks in advance for the noob questions.

Should be fine on map2 with 93 gas.
Not sure on the app thing.
Firmware might need updating to 5A_3 hexfile.

I'm running Map6 as shown below.. any idea if Map2 would feel more powerful? I assume it would be less clutch friendly.

Yes it would be less clutch friendly. Your map isn't exactly clutch friendly either.
Map2:
1500 ?<--- not sure, but 2 is fine.
2000 4
2500 4
3000 4
3500 4
4000 4
4500 4.5
5000 4.8
5500 5.1
6000 5.4
6500 5.4
7000 5.4

Thanks.. it seems like for me Map 2 is less aggressive above 3k and would only be noticeable under 3k perhaps..
Thanks, i'll update the firmware and give it a try.. Which map takes it back to 100% stock ? That way i can compare and see if the the laggier lower RPM still exists over stock, without having to pull everything out. I have the option from the map selection in the app to choose from zero all the way to 8.. No idea what each does, and don't want to go messing around until i get a good handle of what's going on.
