The OBDSTAR N043 converts a 6-pin BRP diagnostic connector on the vehicle side to a 16-pin OBD2 socket (J1962) on the device side. The adapter connects to the six-pin diagnostic port found on BRP vehicles, typically located beneath the seat or near the steering column. Within the OBDSTAR accessory system, it is also designated as M043.

Can-Am models from BRP do not feature a standard OBD2 port but instead use a proprietary six-pin connector. The adapter converts the pin configuration to the corresponding pins of the J1962 standard, providing both physical and electrical coupling between the two connector types. The adapter performs no signal processing; it consists of a fixed cable connection between both plugs. The adapter enables the connection and nothing more. Available diagnostic functions depend on the connected OBDSTAR device and its associated vehicle software. The source lists Spyder and Ryker as applications without model years; compatibility is determined by whether the vehicle features the six-pin BRP connector.

ADVANTAGES

Access to vehicles without OBD2 port — BRP models equipped solely with a six-pin diagnostic port become accessible to your diagnostic device.
Also known as M043 — the dual designation within the OBDSTAR system makes it easier to identify the correct cable for your procedure.
Fixed cable connection — the design with cable between the 6-pin BRP plug and 16-pin OBD2 connector provides flexibility in tight installation spaces.
No vehicle wiring modification — the existing diagnostic connector is used; no alterations to the vehicle are required.

CONSIDERATIONS

OBDSTAR only — the adapter works exclusively with OBDSTAR diagnostic devices and programmers; diagnostic equipment from other manufacturers is not supported.
No additional capability — the adapter adds nothing beyond what your device already offers; supported vehicle software determines the outcome.
Not for vehicles with OBD2 port — if the vehicle already has a standard 16-pin connector, this adapter is unnecessary and will not fit.
No model years specified — the source lists Spyder and Ryker without year ranges. Verify on each vehicle whether the 6-pin BRP connector is present.

Applications and functionality

With an OBDSTAR diagnostic device featuring motorcycle coverage, this adapter supports the following operations on BRP vehicles equipped with the 6-pin port.

Control units accessible

  • Engine management system: The BRP vehicle's engine management is read via the 6-pin diagnostic port.
  • Vehicle ECU system: Stored fault codes from the connected control unit become accessible through the OBD2 interface.

What you can do

  • Read fault codes: Retrieve stored diagnostic trouble codes from the vehicle's ECU system.
  • Clear fault codes: Remove the relevant codes after the fault has been rectified.
  • Display live data: Show sensor readings and driving parameters in real time on the connected device.
  • Engine management system diagnosis: Read the engine management system via the 6-pin port, converted to the OBD2 interface.
  • Important: Which functions are available depends on the connected OBDSTAR device and supported vehicle software, not on the adapter.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The determining factor is the 6-pin BRP diagnostic port on the vehicle, not the model. The source lists Spyder and Ryker as applications without model years. Check the vehicle itself to confirm the manufacturer's 6-pin connector is present.

BRP (Can-Am):

  • Can-Am Spyder: Models with 6-pin BRP diagnostic connection.
  • Can-Am Ryker: Models with 6-pin BRP diagnostic connection.
💡
Good to know: The 6-pin BRP diagnostic port is typically located beneath the seat cowl or near the steering assembly; the vehicle-specific service documentation provides the exact location. Confirm your vehicle has the 6-pin BRP connector and does not already have a standard OBD2 port before ordering.
