The OBDSTAR T008 is a 15-pin DB15 adapter cable specially designed for connecting an external diagnostic interface after the drive module of the ABS system on vehicles with the Mercedes-Benz 204 chassis. The cable acts as an OBD-T connection (tee cable) and allows simultaneous connection of the OBDSTAR test platform and an additional diagnostic tool to the vehicle system. The connector features a DB15 connector on the vehicle side and two OBD2 J1962 connectors on the equipment side.

The T008 adapter cable functions as a passive splitter cable that splits the signal from the vehicle diagnostic port to two outputs, allowing a third device direct access to the ABS module of the 204 chassis after powering the module via the test platform. This is necessary because the ABS module on the Mercedes-Benz C-Class W204 and related models is accessible via its own 15-pin diagnostic interface which is not normally accessible through the regular OBD2 port. The cable is used exclusively in combination with OBDSTAR readers or programmers and does not operate independently.

ADVANTAGES

Enables simultaneous connection of the OBDSTAR test platform and an additional diagnostic tool via a single cable connection.
Provides direct access to the ABS module on the 204 chassis via the specific DB15 connector that is not accessible through the standard OBD2 port.
Passive construction without active electronics ensures direct signal transmission without conversion losses.

ATTENTION POINTS

Only compatible with OBDSTAR readers or programmers; use with equipment from other brands is not possible.
The cable is specifically developed for the Mercedes-Benz 204 chassis and is not suitable for other chassis numbers or manufacturers.
Always requires use in combination with the OBDSTAR test platform; the cable does not function as a standalone connection tool.

Applications and functionalities

The OBDSTAR T008 Adapter Cable supports the following technical applications in combination with OBDSTAR readers or programmers:

  • ABS module diagnosis via DB15: The cable allows access to the ABS module of the Mercedes-Benz 204 chassis via the 15-pin DB15 connector, enabling fault code reading and diagnostics.
  • Parallel module connection: Through the T-structure of the cable, the OBDSTAR test platform and an additional diagnostic tool can be connected simultaneously to the vehicle’s drive module.
  • Signal transmission after drive module: The cable connects a third instrument behind the drive module, enabling communication with the ABS system after the module is actively controlled via the test platform.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The following vehicles are confirmed compatible with the OBDSTAR T008 Adapter Cable for ABS diagnosis via the 204 chassis:

Mercedes-Benz:

  • C-Class (W204): (2007–2014)

💡
Good to know: The DB15 diagnostic connector for the ABS system on the 204 chassis is not located at the standard OBD2 location in the vehicle but is accessible via the wiring of the ABS module itself.
