The OBDSTAR M030 connects the 6-pin Hartford diagnostic connector to a standard 16-pin OBD2 socket (J1962). The 6-pin side attaches to the motorcycle's diagnostic connector, whilst the other end connects to your OBDSTAR diagnostic device.

Hartford uses a proprietary 6-pin diagnostic connector on its motorcycles. This cable physically adapts that connector to the OBD2 interface recognised by OBDSTAR equipment; diagnostic protocols such as K-line are passed through unchanged. There is no onboard electronics and no active signal conversion takes place. The cable functions as a passive signal connection between the diagnostic port and the device. Which Hartford models and functions are supported depends on the capabilities of your own equipment.

KEY BENEFITS

✔Unlocks Hartford models without OBD2 port — motorcycles fitted only with the 6-pin connector become accessible.
✔Direct signal transmission — without onboard electronics, the signal passes unmodified from vehicle to diagnostic system.
✔Compact and lightweight — easily carried as an extension to your existing OBDSTAR kit.
✔Fixed connector design — connectors are mounted at both ends; separate adapters are not required.

LIMITATIONS

✕6-pin Hartford connector only — other manufacturers or connection types are not supported by this cable.
✕No model list available — which Hartford models are precisely supported is not indicated in the product data.
✕For OBDSTAR equipment only — the cable will not function with diagnostic tools from other manufacturers.
✕Does not add vehicle coverage — available functions depend on your device and support for the specific model.

Applications and functionality

Via the 6-pin connection, you can access the control unit of the Hartford motorcycle.

Control units you can reach

  • Motorcycle control unit: The unit connected via K-line to the 6-pin diagnostic connector.
  • Other control units: Which additional modules respond depends on the model and your device's coverage.

What you can do

  • Fault code management: Read and clear stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) via K-line connection.
  • Live data: View real-time measurements such as engine speed, temperature and sensor signals.
  • System scan: Check the communication status of connected control units to map your diagnostic system.
  • Please note: Which functions are actually available depends on your device and support for the specific Hartford model.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The 6-pin Hartford diagnostic connector is what matters, not the model. Individual models or model years are not specified for this cable; only the connector type is relevant.

  • Hartford: Motorcycles with 6-pin OBD connection.
💡
Good to know: The 6-pin Hartford diagnostic connector is typically located under the seat or near the steering area; your vehicle's service manual provides the exact location. Verify that your motorcycle has the 6-pin connector before ordering.
