26 Pin (Elite 1500)

The Elite 1500 has two main connectors. This page covers the smaller 26-pin plug and how to use its pinout diagram.

The Haltech Elite 1500 connects to the vehicle through two main connectors, one with 34 pins and one with 26. This page covers the 26-pin connector. Its pinout diagram shows what each pin position on that plug is used for.

You'll need it when you're building a harness from scratch, adding a sensor or output to a spare pin, moving a wire during a custom install, or tracing a fault with a meter. It's also the reference to check against if something is plugged into the wrong input.

What to check:

  • You're reading the diagram from the correct side. Wire side and pin side views are mirror images, so confirm which one you're looking at.
  • The pin function matches what ESP expects for that input or output.
  • Each wire in your harness lands where the diagram says it should, especially on older or modified looms.
  • Terminals are fully seated and locked. Use the Elite 1500 plug and pin set and a proper tool if you're repinning.

For the other connector, see the 34-pin Elite 1500 page, or the Elite 1500 overview.
