The OBDSTAR M002 is a power cable with battery clamps on one end and a DC connector on the other. The clamps connect directly to the 12V battery — red to positive, black to negative — and the DC connector plugs into the power input of your OBDSTAR device.

The cable is designed to power the host device independently of the OBD port. The cable includes an inline fuse that protects both the device and battery against short circuits and power surges. This makes it ideal for bench work and key programming outside the vehicle.

The M002 supplies power only and does not provide data communication with the vehicle. Separate data connectivity is still required for diagnostics, and which functions you can perform depends on your device's software.

KEY BENEFITS

Power outside the vehicle — perfect for bench work on keys and modules, away from the car.
Inline fuse protection — safeguards the connected device and battery against short circuits and current spikes.
Color-coded clamps — red and black prevent polarity reversal during connection.
Alternative when OBD port is busy — useful if the diagnostic connector is occupied or damaged.

IMPORTANT NOTES

No data communication — the cable provides power only; you'll still need a separate data connection to the vehicle for diagnostics.
External battery or power supply required — for off-vehicle use, you need your own 12V power source; this is not included.
OBDSTAR host devices only — your device must have the matching DC power input.
Does not expand vehicle coverage — the cable doesn't change which models and functions your device supports.

Applications and functionality

The cable supplies power to the host device only, not data connectivity.

Control modules you can reach

  • None — power supply only: the cable makes no connection to vehicle control units.
  • Host device: the DC power input of the OBDSTAR diagnostic tool powered via the vehicle battery.

What you can do

  • Bench power supply: deliver 12V from a battery to the host device for diagnostics and programming outside the vehicle.
  • Program keys without a vehicle: edit keys or immobilizer modules when there's no car nearby.
  • Supplement power during diagnostics: supply the device with power when the OBD port provides no or insufficient voltage.
  • Protect against short circuits: safeguard the device via the inline fuse against power spikes and shorts.
  • Please note: this cable adds no new functions; what you can perform depends on your OBDSTAR device capabilities.

Compatible vehicles and applications

What matters is the DC power input on your device, not the vehicle model. The source lists no makes or model years: the cable connects to a 12V battery and works across all vehicle brands.

  • Vehicles with 12V battery: the clamps attach to the positive and negative battery terminals.
  • OBDSTAR host equipment with DC input: the device-side connector fits tools with the matching power input.
💡
Good to know: Always connect the red clamp to the positive terminal first, then the black clamp to the negative terminal. Before use, check that the inline fuse is intact; a blown fuse will completely block power and is simple to replace. Before ordering, verify that your device has a DC power input that matches this connector.
