The cable is intended for use with \u003cstrong\u003eOBDSTAR diagnostic devices or programmers\u003c\/strong\u003e and is specifically designed for diagnostic applications on \u003cstrong\u003eTohatsu outboard motors\u003c\/strong\u003e in the \u003cstrong\u003emotorboat sector\u003c\/strong\u003e. The cable provides a physical and electrical connection between the non-standard factory port of the engine and the OBD2 interface of the diagnostic device.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe \u003cstrong\u003e6-pin connector\u003c\/strong\u003e on the engine side connects to the \u003cstrong\u003eTohatsu-specific diagnostic port\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is usually present on electronically controlled outboard motors. Through the cable, the relevant \u003cstrong\u003ediagnostic lines\u003c\/strong\u003e — including the \u003cstrong\u003eK-line\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eCAN bus\u003c\/strong\u003e depending on the engine type — are passed to the \u003cstrong\u003e16-pin OBD2 side\u003c\/strong\u003e, allowing the OBDSTAR device to establish communication with the \u003cstrong\u003eengine control unit (ECU)\u003c\/strong\u003e. This makes it possible to \u003cstrong\u003eread fault codes\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003erequest live data\u003c\/strong\u003e, and perform other diagnostic tasks via the familiar OBD2 interface of the diagnostic device.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;
