The OBDSTAR M086 connects the 6-pin diagnostic connector of Volvo Penta marine engines to the 16-pin OBD2 side of your OBDSTAR device. The connector is located on the engine or in the engine wiring harness.

With the cable you read out the engine control unit: fault codes, live data and actuator tests. With the IScan Pro Volvo you can also carry out, among other things, parameter programming and engine tests. The device itself must support Volvo Penta diagnostics. The cable works with the OBDSTAR Marine Master, D700 and the IScan range (Marine).

HIGHLIGHTS

✔Fits directly to the 6-pin Volvo Penta connector, without an intermediate adapter.
✔The cable is included as standard in the box of the Marine Master and the IScan Pro Volvo.
✔You read out the engine control unit without a separate Volvo Penta tester.
✔The 16-pin end fits the main cable of the OBDSTAR marine devices.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕Your scan tool must support the Volvo Penta diagnostics; the cable does not convert protocols.
✕A simple EOBD code reader does not work with this cable; it only reads emissions-related OBD2 data.
✕Volvo Penta also uses other connectors; some engines have the universal 6-pin connector of the M063.
✕The cable is designed for OBDSTAR marine devices; operation with devices from other brands has not been confirmed.

Applications and functions

The cable is intended for boatyards, mechanics and boat owners with a Volvo Penta marine engine.

Control units you can access

  • Engine control: The engine's ECU.
  • Other systems: Varies by engine and equipment.

How to use it

  1. Locate the connector: Find the 6-pin diagnostic connector on the engine.
  2. Connect the cable: Attach the 16-pin end to the main cable of the device.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The 6-pin Volvo Penta connector on the engine is decisive. OBDSTAR supports, among others, the following Volvo Penta series; which connector your engine has varies by series and year of manufacture.

Volvo Penta:

  • D3 and D4/D6: Diesel engines.
  • D5 to D16: GE and VE versions.
  • D8, D12 and D13: Including the D8/D13-1000.
  • KAD and TAMD: KAD-44, KAD-300, TAMD-74 and TAMD-75.
  • Petrol engines: Including V6, V8 and QL EST.
💡
Good to know: Count the pins in the connector on the engine: if it has six, this is the correct cable. In the OBDSTAR app you can look up the location of the diagnostic port for each engine.
