Universal 16-pin OBD2 Male Adapter Plug
This universal 16-pin OBD2 (J1962) male connector is an essential component for manufacturing or repairing diagnostic cables and equipment. The connector is identical to the part that plugs into the standard diagnostic port of a vehicle and is supplied as a detachable housing including associated metal pins.
This adapter plug is specifically intended for technicians, engineers, and DIY enthusiasts who want to create their own custom OBD2 wiring. It allows the user to make a cable of a specific length, configure a unique pinout, or replace a damaged connector on an existing diagnostic device. For assembly, it is necessary to solder the wires to the pins.
Application and functionality:
- Repair: Ideal for replacing a broken or worn connector on an existing diagnostic cable or scan tool.
- Custom cables: Offers complete freedom in cable length, quality, and pinout configuration.
- Hardware development: Suitable for prototyping and end products such as data loggers or interfaces for Arduino/Raspberry Pi projects.
- Educational purposes: Perfect for students and hobbyists who want to learn more about vehicle networks and communication.
Compatibility:
This male plug is designed to physically fit into any standard J1962 / OBD2 female port, as found in almost all passenger cars that:
- From 2001 are sold (gasoline, EU)
- From 2004 are sold (diesel, EU)
Note: The functionality of the cable depends on how the wires are soldered to the pins.
