Honda diagnostic connector (3 pin) uses only one wire for data transmission (RX & TX - half duplex mode - serial communication), however the developers (eCtune, HTS, BMTune) decided to not support it and opted for two wire data transmission method (RX | TX - full duplex mode - parallel communication), requiring a 4 pin connector which does not exist, thus this communication method is achievable only via installing a Bluetooth module internally, bypassing the diagnostic connector entirely
