Does anybody know a wiring diagram for the output pins? For example, pin1 = +12V, pin2=Ground, etc? (where pin1 is the leftmost when the mount faces you with the pins at the buttom). Which pin is +12V?

You will need to ohm it out. The wires are labeled on a black piece of tape at the bare wire end. You can use that info to figure out what pins go to what wire. Garmin does not have that documented at this time. If you are unable to figure that out please let us know.

1 - Blue Serial Data out
2 - Yellow Serial Data in
3 - nc
4 - Red power
5 - Green and Black Ground
6 - Audio jack +
