TBox connector pinout

Pin assignment of the Aiways U5 TBox (Telematics Box) connectors. Teardown and chip list: TBox teardown.

BD49 — main connector (40-way, white)

BD49 TBox main connector, cable side

The drawing shows the cable side (wire entry side) of the connector.

Pin Wire (mm²) Colour Function
1 0.35 G/L Ignition (IGN)
5 0.5 Y Microphone 2 −
6 0.5 L Microphone in +
8 0.5 L Audio input +
10 0.35 O/R E-Call/B-Call indicator lamp ground
11 0.5 Br/R Collision signal input (airbag)
19 0.5 Gr/R CAN-H
20 0.5 W/Y Battery + (permanent 12 V)
25 0.5 B/R Microphone 2 +
26 0.5 V Microphone in −
28 0.5 V Audio input −
30 0.34 R/W E-Call/B-Call indicator lamp power
33 0.35 Br/R B-Call indicator lamp output
34 0.35 Y/R E-Call indicator lamp output
39 0.5 Gr/L CAN-L
40 0.5 B Ground

All other positions are empty.

Bench operation needs only pin 20 (12 V), 40 (ground), 1 (ignition) and 19/39 (CAN). Everything else is for eCall/bCall: two microphone pairs, an audio input, the crash signal and the indicator lamps. There is no USB, Ethernet or debug UART on this connector.

Pin Function
1 USB D−
2 Ground
3 USB D+

There is no +5 V; the TBox is powered through BD49. The other end is BD55 on the head unit (2 = D+, 3 = GND, 4 = D−, pin 1 not connected). No end-view drawing of BD48 is available — ring the pins out before trusting an orientation.
