The OBDSTAR CAN DIRECT-V2 is a specialized diagnostic cable set designed to bypass the Security Gateway (SGW) in modern vehicles. This adapter cable provides technicians with direct access to the CAN bus, which is necessary because regular data reading and writing rights via the standard OBD2 port are blocked by the gateway. The set is specifically developed for advanced diagnostic tasks, including proximity key programming, dashboard calibration, and CAN frame acquisition. The system is widely applicable to recent models from brands such as Toyota, Lexus, FCA, Renault, and Opel, and is also compatible with third-party diagnostic equipment due to its universal connectors.
During use, the main cable is connected to the diagnostic equipment and the OBD port, after which the loose signal wires are tapped directly from the internal communication networks. For vehicles lacking specific connectors for the CAN lines, the technician uses the included wire piercing probes (back-probe pins) to reliably contact the CAN-High and CAN-Low wires without permanently damaging the insulation. For FCA vehicles, the special Jeep/Chrysler CAN-C bus connector is used for a direct, interference-free connection to the network. This creates an uninterrupted data flow between the vehicle network and the tester, allowing critical ECU adjustments to be safely performed outside the gateway restrictions.

ATTENTION POINTS
Applications and functionalities
The OBDSTAR CAN DIRECT-V2 cable set enables diagnostic and key specialists to perform actions normally blocked by vehicle security. The following functionalities are supported:
- Proximity Key Programming: Enables programming of new smart keys in vehicles where the gateway blocks access to the immobilizer (IMMO) via the OBD port.
- Cluster Calibration: Offers the necessary write permissions to make adjustments or calibrations to the instrument cluster (dashboard) via direct CAN communication.
- CAN Frame Acquisition: Allows technicians to read raw CAN data and network packets for in-depth network analysis or reverse engineering.
- SGW Bypass for Diagnostics: Provides access to secured control units for performing active tests, clearing permanent fault codes, and general repair work.
Special features and capabilities
This cable set stands out with hardware solutions focused on safe and universal tapping of vehicle networks.
- Non-destructive CAN connection: The included spiral probes (hook probes) contact the copper core of the network wires without the need to cut or strip cables.
- FCA CAN-C Integration: The specific Jeep/Chrysler connector provides a plug-and-play connection to the CAN-C network, essential for modern Stellantis/FCA models.
- Hardware flexibility: The set uses standard banana plugs, making it not exclusively tied to OBDSTAR but also compatible with tools from other manufacturers.
