CAN port low voltage output?

[AmnCruzie]

Hello guys, new to this forum so I'll start off by saying Hi!
Now on to why I'm here. I just recently purchased a Racepak iQ3 for my car, and when I installed it, it would not turn on. I checked the voltage output at the plug to see if the Dash was getting enough power, and the 12v and ground wires read 6v and 3v respectively. I was curious what could be causing this? Is it the CAN port or is it the wire itself? It's a 350z Platinum ECU with the latest firmware if that helps. Any input would be greatly appreciated, as my car has been sitting for a few weeks now and I really miss driving her. Thanx in advance!

Update: I ran the 12v and ground wires directly to the car's electrical system (bypassing the ECU altogether) and it fired up, so I know it's not the dash. It obviously didn't read anything as I had unplugged the CAN hi/low wires. So it's the CAN port. Why is it not sending the proper current? Also, do I really need to buy a new V-Net cable just for the plastic 8-pin male connector that connects on the ECU side or do you guys sell those individually? Because I am going to try re-wiring that end of the cable to see if that fixes it (maybe I did one of the jumper wires wrong?). I cut the connector off, but now I cannot find the plastic connector end for the life of me. Plus I might need another one in the future as I might be stripping out my interior and relocating/rewiring a lot of the electronics. Thanks again. The IQ3 looked so pretty when it fired up, now i'm anxious to get it working lol

IT'S ALIVE!!! Thanx to Hal from Dynosty for his help w/ this matter. Looks so puuurdy, and I can drive my car again. Now I just can't wait to finish the custom mount project that I started while I was waiting on getting it going. Pics to come if this forum allows that, not entirely familiar w/ all the rules for this forum.
