Uses for Post-OBD2 DLC1 Port?

So far I've found two WSM-outlined uses of the post-OBD2 DLC1 port. Pre-OBD2 it was used for a lot of interesting things.

The two things found so far are:
ABS System Code Check - AFAIK this is only done by DLC1 port - pull Short Pin, jump Tc & E1 pins.
Engine Ignition Timing Check - jump Te1 & E1 pins, no Short Pin pull.

Attached a picture of my 1997 T4R DLC1 port Cover Diagram, and what pins populate this port (thin red lines).

What other post-OBD2 proven safe uses are there for this nifty DLC1 port?

I believe you can jumper b+ to the FP and the fuel pump will work. I want someone to verify it though.

I think you can clear the abs codes by doing a combination of jumpers too..

Yeh, I was hoping the Fp/B+ fuel-pump-on jump was a possibility, but my DLC1 port doesn't have an Fp pin. I wonder if all G3s are missing this pin.

You're right on ABS code clearance-- leave Tc/E1 jumper in place & Short Pin pulled, then step on brake pedal 8x within 3sec. Code should then revert to the 'Normal Code' rapid flashing, which means codes are cleared. All this with Ign On of course.

Are there different pinouts for this thing? Mine is missing the cap, so I just went through with a voltmeter, and the only place I found battery voltage was where your pic shows AB.
