The Autel 15-pin DB15 to 16-pin OBD2 adapter cable serves as the primary data connection between your diagnostic scanner and vehicle. This cable features a 15-pin DB15 connector with locking screws for secure attachment to the serial port on your diagnostic tablet, plus a standard 16-pin OBD2 connector for linking to your vehicle's diagnostic port (DLC). The cable acts as a physical bridge enabling two-way communication and power delivery between your scan tool and the vehicle's internal networks.

From a technical standpoint, this main cable enables complete signal transmission and protocol compatibility required for modern OBD2 and EOBD diagnostics. The cable supports pass-through connectivity for all standardized communication protocols, including CAN, J1850, ISO9141, and KWP2000. Thanks to its direct pin configuration, vehicle data is transmitted reliably with zero latency, while the cable also delivers the necessary 12V power supply directly from your vehicle's battery to your connected diagnostic device.

KEY BENEFITS

✔Secure attachment to your diagnostic scanner with integrated locking screws on the DB15 connector.
✔Enables direct 12V power supply from your vehicle battery to the diagnostic tablet.
✔Supports uninterrupted signal transmission for all standard OBD2 communication protocols.
✔Built with heavy-duty shielding and strain relief for reliable performance in workshop environments.

IMPORTANT NOTES

✕Compatible exclusively with specific wired Autel diagnostic equipment.
✕Does not replace Bluetooth VCI modules or wireless communication interfaces.
✕The cable length limits your physical freedom of movement around the vehicle during diagnostics.

Applications and features

This adapter cable is essential for performing wired vehicle diagnostics and offers the following capabilities when used with compatible Autel diagnostic equipment:

  • Read and clear fault codes: Enables the physical data connection needed to retrieve diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) from various electronic control units (ECUs) and clear them after repairs.
  • Stream live data: Provides a stable broadband connection for real-time display of parameters, sensor readings and graphs on your diagnostic device.
  • Device power supply: Delivers 12V power from the OBD2 port (Pin 16) directly to the diagnostic tablet, keeping your device powered or charged during use.
  • Bidirectional communication: Supports active testing functions, programming and coding by transmitting and receiving data simultaneously without signal loss or interference.

Compatible devices

This main cable is exclusively designed with the specific DB15 pin configuration for use with the following Autel diagnostic tools:

  • MaxiCheck MX808
  • MaxiCheck MX808S

Good to know: Before connecting, check that the pins in your vehicle's diagnostic port are not bent or dirty. This prevents damage to the connector and ensures uninterrupted signal transmission during diagnostics.
