The OBDSTAR M018A is the Yamaha cable set with multiple connectors on the vehicle side: two 3-pin and one 4-pin configuration. They converge into a single 16-pin OBD2 (J1962)-connector that plugs into your OBDSTAR diagnostic equipment.

Yamaha uses a manufacturer-specific diagnostic port on its motorcycles, typically in two configurations: 3+3-pin and 4-pin. Diagnostic communication operates via the K-line among other protocols. The cable provides only the physical connection; protocol recognition and signal assignment are handled by the OBDSTAR device. You select the branch that matches the diagnostic port on the specific motorcycle and thereby access the control units behind that port. Not all Yamaha models and model years are supported; your device's vehicle coverage determines compatibility.

KEY BENEFITS

Three connectors in one set — the 3+3-pin and 4-pin Yamaha configurations are on the same cable, so you don't need to swap connectors on the road.
Fixed cable routing — each branch corresponds to one connector type, helping prevent incorrect connections.
Standard J1962 on the device side — the OBD2 connector plugs directly into the diagnostic system without an intermediate adapter.
Accesses motorcycles without OBD2 port — Yamaha models with only the factory diagnostic port become accessible with this cable.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Not all models and production years are supported — the cable fits mechanically, but model support depends on your device's compatibility list.
Yamaha motorcycles only — this cable set cannot be used with other brands or vehicle categories.
OBDSTAR equipment only — use with diagnostic systems from other manufacturers is not supported.
Does not add vehicle coverage — the cable converts the connector only; functions come from your device's software.

Applications and functionality

Via the selected branch, you reach the diagnostic port of the Yamaha motorcycle.

Control units you can access

  • Engine control unit (ECU): The control unit accessed via the Yamaha diagnostic port.
  • Immobiliser components: On supported models, key and immobiliser data can also be accessed through this connection.

What you can do

  • Read fault codes: Retrieve stored and active diagnostic trouble codes from the motorcycle's ECU.
  • Clear fault codes: Erase fault memory after diagnosis and repair work.
  • Read live data: Monitor sensor values and system parameters during idle or whilst riding.
  • Key and immobiliser programming: Programme keys or immobiliser components, depending on the supported Yamaha model.
  • Note: Which of these functions you get varies by model and by OBDSTAR device.

Good to know: The diagnostic port on Yamaha motorcycles is typically located beneath the side panel or seat; the exact position varies by model and is detailed in the workshop manual. Verify which of the three connectors fits your motorcycle before ordering.
