The OBDSTAR M053 is the adapter cable for Honda-specific 12-pin and 33-pin IMMO connectors on motorcycles and scooters. On the device side, the cable terminates in a standard 16-pin OBD2 (J1962)-connector, allowing you to connect the tool to the standard port.
Honda locates the immobiliser connector separately from the standard diagnostic port and uses two different connector formats for this purpose. Communication operates via the K-line protocol. The cable manages pin signal routing between those two connector types and the OBD2 side, ensuring the device receives the correct signals for key programming and system configuration. The cable provides access to the IMMO system only. Standard OBD2 diagnostic functions, such as reading fault codes or monitoring sensor values, are not supported through this connection. Your device must also have active software support for Honda IMMO applications on motorcycles.

Applications and functionality
This connection provides access to the immobiliser system of Honda motorcycles and scooters.
Control units you can reach
- IMMO control unit: The unit where the vehicle's key and transponder information is stored.

What you can do
- Programme keys: Pair new keys or transponder units with the immobiliser system via the K-line connection.
- Read IMMO data: Retrieve existing key information and system status from the IMMO control unit.
- Verify transponder: Compare a key's transponder code against the data stored in the IMMO system.
- Clear keys: Remove previously paired keys or transponder codes from memory.
- Note: Which IMMO operations are available depends on the model and your device's software support.
