The OBDSTAR M088 connects the 6-pin diagnostic connector of Tohatsu outboard motors to the 16-pin OBD2 side of an OBDSTAR marine tool. The connector is located on the motor itself, under the engine cowling.

An outboard motor does not have an OBD2 port like a car. With this cable you can access the engine control and read fault codes and live data. The tool itself must provide the Tohatsu diagnostics.

PLUS POINTS

✔Provides access to the 6-pin Tohatsu connector for an OBDSTAR tool with a 16-pin input.

✔Genuine OBDSTAR adapter for marine diagnostics.

✔You read the motor with your own tool, without a separate Tohatsu tester.

✔Useful as a replacement for a lost or damaged M088.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕Your diagnostic tool must support the Tohatsu diagnostics of this motor; the cable does not convert protocols.

✕A simple EOBD code reader does not work with this cable; it only reads emissions data from cars.

✕OBDSTAR does not provide a list of engine types and build years; the connection to the motor is decisive.

✕Tohatsu has two different 6-pin plugs; for the other shape the M071 is required and for the 18-pin connector the M070.
