Abstract
Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for a variable multiplexer for vehicle communication bus compatibility. A device includes a variable multiplexer that can be electronically configured to a desired pinout configuration to provide compatibility with multiple vehicles. For example, the variable multiplexer may be electronically configured based on a pinout configuration used by the vehicle to connect pins in the device to the corresponding pins on the data link connector that provide the same specified function. The device may therefore use a single standardized cable with vehicles using a variety of pinout configurations.
