The OBDSTAR M030 connects the 6-pin diagnostic connector of Hartford motorcycles to the 16-pin OBD2 port of your OBDSTAR device. The connector is located on the motorcycle itself. Its position varies by model.

Hartford does not use a standard OBD2 connector. With this cable, your device accesses the engine control unit behind the 6-pin plug. You can read and clear fault codes and view live data. The cable only converts the connector physically. The device itself must support Hartford diagnostics, such as the MS50 and the MOTOMASTER.

HIGHLIGHTS

✔Makes the 6-pin Hartford connector accessible to your OBDSTAR device.
✔You do not need a separate brand-specific testing device to read the motorcycle.
✔Intended for OBDSTAR motorcycle devices with Hartford software, such as the MS50 and the MOTOMASTER.
✔The cable works passively: No separate software or settings are required.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕Your reader must support the brand-specific Hartford diagnostics via the 6-pin connector; the cable does not convert protocols.
✕A simple EOBD code reader does not work via this cable; it only reads the standard OBD2 data of cars.
✕Other brands with a 6-pin plug often use a different pin assignment; this cable is for Hartford only.
✕Which models and functions you can reach is determined by the software of your device; check the coverage list in advance.
