The OBDSTAR M076 is an adapter cable that converts a 4-pin OBD connection to a standard 16-pin OBD2 (J1962) connector. The cable is specifically designed for use with MerCruiser and VM Motori combustion engines and allows diagnostic equipment to connect to engines lacking a standard OBD2 port. The adapter cable is only compatible with OBDSTAR readers or programmers.

The M076 connects the brand-specific 4-pin diagnostic port of MerCruiser and VM Motori engines to the 16-pin OBD2 input of the connected OBDSTAR device. Through this connection, the diagnostic signals from the engine are transmitted to the reader, enabling communication with the engine control unit (ECU). The cable thus bridges a non-standard port layout to the universal OBD2 interface of OBDSTAR equipment without requiring additional adapters.

ADVANTAGES

Enables direct connection to the 4-pin OBD port of MerCruiser and VM Motori engines without intermediate adapters.
Directly converts the non-standard port layout to the J1962 OBD2 interface used by OBDSTAR equipment.
Suitable for diagnosing combustion engines in applications where standard OBD2 ports are absent.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Only compatible with OBDSTAR readers or programmers; not usable with diagnostic equipment from other brands.
Only suitable for MerCruiser and VM Motori engines with a 4-pin OBD port; not intended for other engine types or connections.

Applications and functionalities

The M076 Adapter Cable supports the following diagnostic functions via connected OBDSTAR equipment on MerCruiser and VM Motori internal combustion engines.

  • Read fault codes: Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are read from the engine control unit via the 4-pin OBD connection, allowing identification of faults in the engine system.
  • Clear fault codes: After diagnosis and repair, stored fault codes in the ECU can be cleared via the connected OBDSTAR device.
  • Display live data: Real-time engine parameters such as RPM, temperature, and sensor values are read and displayed on the diagnostic equipment through the Adapter Cable.
  • ECU communication: The cable enables the OBDSTAR device to communicate with the engine control unit of MerCruiser and VM Motori engines via the existing diagnostic protocol.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The engines and applications listed below are confirmed compatible with the OBDSTAR M076 Adapter Cable. Only engines with a 4-pin OBD diagnostic port are supported.

MerCruiser:

  • Inboard engines with 4-pin OBD diagnostic port

VM Motori:

  • Internal combustion engines with 4-pin OBD diagnostic port
💡
Good to know: The 4-pin OBD diagnostic port on MerCruiser and VM Motori engines is usually located near the engine unit. Please refer to the engine documentation for the exact location.
