Applies to: Exact TE 179631-1 diagnostic housing, Type1/Type2/CCS1/CCS2 manufacturer overview, SAE J3400_202409 public scope. No automotive/EV wiring is added.
What the path requires
- Use actual vehicle/OEM and EVSE product labels and approved normal-use documentation.
- Treat regional prevalence as context, not a current legal/installation statement.
- No contact mapping or high-voltage procedure.
The diagnostic standard and the exact housing are separate evidence
SAE J1962_201607 public scope describes an OBD diagnostic connection with vehicle and external test-equipment mating connectors. Use that versioned standard handoff for the diagnostic interface. The separate TE179631-1 housing record does not by itself establish J1962 compliance, terminal allocation, wiring or electrical suitability.

TE 179631-1 diagnostic housing: position count versus protocol
Documented outcome: Identification and protocol-versus-form education
- Exact TE part 179631-1: manufacturer diagnostic housing description, 16 positions in two rows, housing for female/receptacle terminals, wire-to-panel and panel mount. The product label uses plug-housing wording; identify terminal sex separately from the housing name.
- Read the exact housing and tool/vehicle documentation; position count and mating form do not identify populated contacts, protocol support or an approved cable.
- The referenced product feature page is identification evidence only. No contact allocation, universal J1962 conformity, powered probing, wiring or installation procedure is supplied.
Type1 AC vehicle interface
Documented outcome: Identification and protocol-versus-form education
- North-American-origin Type1 context, referenced by Phoenix to SAEJ1772/IEC62196; distinguish AC interface from the larger CCS1 combined face.
- Use vehicle/EVSE exact OEM support and regional product version; do not infer charge power or adapter permission.
- Use only the manufacturer's permitted normal-use procedure; this reference supplies no HV pinout, powered probing, wiring or installation instructions.
Type2 AC interface
Documented outcome: Identification and protocol-versus-form education
- European-origin Type2 context; distinguish a vehicle inlet from a cable connector and infrastructure-side socket. Similar appearance does not settle role.
- Confirm vehicle/EVSE role, supported AC mode and approved cable from OEM labels; no mains/HV contact assignments supplied.
- Use only the manufacturer's permitted normal-use procedure; this reference supplies no HV pinout, powered probing, wiring or installation instructions.
CCS Type1 combined form
Documented outcome: Identification and protocol-versus-form education
- Combined vehicle inlet built around the Type1 interface with distinct DC mating area; this identification treatment does not assign electrical terminals.
- Read exact inlet/cable product and vehicle DC support; AC fit does not establish DC charging or protocol.
- Use only the manufacturer's permitted normal-use procedure; this reference supplies no HV pinout, powered probing, wiring or installation instructions.
CCS Type2 combined form
Documented outcome: Identification and protocol-versus-form education
- Combined vehicle inlet built around Type2 with a distinct DC mating area. Do not confuse a Type2 AC connector with full CCS2 capability.
- Confirm vehicle, EVSE, cable and protocol support together; no energized checks, assembly or conversion advice.
- Use only the manufacturer's permitted normal-use procedure; this reference supplies no HV pinout, powered probing, wiring or installation instructions.
SAE J3400/NACS context
Documented outcome: Identification and protocol-versus-form education
- The public J3400_202409 scope covers a coupler using two current-carrying contacts for DC or single-phase AC. This is the named2024revision, not a claim to the latest full standard.
- The same contact form can serve different supply modes; obtain exact OEM/EVSE/adapter permission. Public overview is not an engineering pinout or interoperability test.
- Use only the manufacturer's permitted normal-use procedure; this reference supplies no HV pinout, powered probing, wiring or installation instructions.
Your next useful observation
Read exact vehicle/inlet/EVSE model and OEM permitted connector/adapter statement.
Keep these limits
- SAE full standards not accessed; no dimension/pinout claims taken from public abstracts.
- No specialist wiring review, powered test or universal interoperability approval.
