The OBDSTAR M001B connects the 15-pin DB15 main port of your OBDSTAR diagnostic device to the 16-pin OBD2 connector (J1962) on the vehicle. The DB15 plug connects to the device's main port, whilst the OBD2 plug inserts into the diagnostic socket of the vehicle.
This version is the heavier of the two DB15 cable variants, weighing 0.3 kg. The cable carries both data signals and power supply, enabling the device to control and read the protocols on the OBD2 pins during diagnostics, key programming and odometer operations. What the cable can accomplish is limited by what the vehicle's OBD2 port provides access to and by your device's software capabilities. For vehicles without an OBD2 port, additional manufacturer-specific adapters are required.
KEY BENEFITS
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
Applications and functionality
Via the OBD2 port, you can access the vehicle systems made available on that connection.
Control units you can reach
- Control modules on the OBD2 port:The modules that allow fault codes to be read and cleared.
- Immobiliser system:The module involved in programming keys and remote controls.
- Instrument cluster:The unit used to communicate with odometer operations.
What you can do
- Read and clear fault codes:Retrieve stored diagnostic trouble codes from the ECU and remove them after repair.
- Programme keys and remote controls:Establish the connection required by the immobiliser system.
- Perform odometer operations:Communicate with the instrument cluster for correction and adjustment.
- Power the device:Supply voltage from the OBD2 port to the diagnostic tool during use.
- Please note:Which operations are permitted and available depends on your device, licences and applicable regulations.
Compatible vehicles and applications
What matters is the DB15 main port on your device and the OBD2 port on the vehicle, not the model.The source lists no makes or model years; the cable is the standard main connection between those two ports.
- Vehicles with 16-pin OBD2 (J1962):The standard diagnostic connector on modern vehicles.
- OBDSTAR diagnostic tools with DB15 main port:The device-side connector fits only on that port.
