I also bought the Mitsubishi Outlander Battery Charging Cable part number 9482 A150
and no that's not what I paid for it, and yes, eBay is loosing it's mind and getting worse every upgrade
Gentlemen I could really appreciate your help in identifying the mystery 3 prong "extra" cable in this Medusa like listing

That's the rear inverter to motor cable.
That price is very cheap for both cables. Was this listing for just one of the cables and did you get the right one?

the ZombieVerter VCU controls (talks to) the Mitsubishi Outlander on CAN Bus 2 so it uses these two pins on the connector

Re: I just bought a Mitsubishi Outlander charger. - Now What?
let's take a look at the ZombieVerter VCU software, and the settings we need to configure for the Outlander Charger
we start under Parameters (pronounced: "Settings") under the General Setup section
first we need to select Out_lander using the pulldown menu next to the chargemodes parameter
chargemodes: Out_lander
next we just need to verify (no need changing anything) that the ChargerCan pulldown menu is on it's default setting of CAN2
ChargerCan: CAN2

4. Good 2nd hand CAN reporting on charging voltage, current, temperature... To compare to your BMS reference or to use as its own control reference.Scrappyjoe wrote: ↑Wed Feb 19, 2025 8:04 pm 1. Cheap

5. Did i mention its quite cheap?
EDIT: Temp reporting is T[°C] + 40. So charger actually reports [hex] - 40 . Normaly primary and secondary temp are a bit different.
