The OBDSTAR M042A Adapter Cable is specifically developed to connect diagnostic equipment with Motorcycles from the brands Indian, Victory, and Polaris. This cable allows converting the vehicle-specific 8-pin diagnostic connection to a standard 16-pin OBD2 female connector, enabling universal or brand-specific scanners to communicate with the vehicle system.

This Adapter facilitates the physical connection between the electronic control unit (ECU) of the Motorcycle and the diagnostic instrument. The internal pin configuration is precisely set to correctly transmit the specific communication lines of the Indian/Victory/Polaris protocol. The robust connectors ensure interference-free signal transmission during reading of fault codes, live data, and actuator tests.

ADVANTAGES

✔ Specific connector for vehicles with an 8-pin diagnostic port.

✔ Original OBDSTAR quality for reliable data transfer.

✔ Suitable for multiple brands within the Polaris group.

IMPORTANT NOTES

✕ Not suitable for models using a 4-pin or 6-pin connector.

✕ Functions only as an interface; a diagnostic tester is required for reading data.

Applications and functionalities

The M042A Adapter Cable serves as a physical bridge between the Motorcycle and the diagnostic equipment. The available functionalities depend on the diagnostic software used and the support from the vehicle.
