New Car

[Ice Kay]

So i have sold my 8p and bought the below.
The car didnt come with a AMI apple cable so have been looking on ebay and noticed the cables vary in colour ie yellow, blue etc.

What is the difference and which color one do i need ?

Some more information might help, don't think the colour of a cable is going to matter

The colour absolutely does matter when it comes to Apple products, as different coloured AMI cables have different capabilities.

It’s been a while since I had Apple on AMI. Let me see if I can find the reference.

If I remember correctly, the colour coding signifies the chipset within the cable (these are not just straight cables!)

Fair enough, been a while since I used an apple device, much easier with just needing a USB C cable

Sorry, seems to be a bit of a minefield...

Yellow is the most recent and the one you want. The other colours have limited compatibility.

Received from eBay today along with the USB cable too for £20 and they work superb
Thanks guys
