The Autel Kia 20-pin to 16-pin OBD2 adapter is specifically developed to connect older Kia vehicles to modern diagnostic equipment. This compact Adapter links the model-specific rectangular 20-pin diagnostic port, commonly found in pre-OBD2 era vehicles, to the universal 16-pin connector of the diagnostic tester.
The internal circuit of the Adapter ensures correct pin-to-pin mapping between the proprietary vehicle connector and the diagnostic device interface. This enables stable signal transmission and communication with older vehicle networks and control units. The Adapter is made from high-quality plastic and is designed to withstand intensive workshop use, with the fit guaranteeing a reliable connection without signal loss.
