This universal adapter cable connects a 26-pin DB26 connector to the standard 16-pin OBD2 (J1962) diagnostic port on your vehicle. The OBD2 connector features a built-in LED indicator, which visually displays the vehicle power status and data communication. The cable serves as a primary or replacement cable for diagnostic scanners that use a DB26 connector.

The cable enables all standard OBD2 diagnostic functions, including reading and clearing fault codes, viewing live data, actuator testing, and performing service and reset functions. The supported protocols depend on the connected diagnostic scanner.
