FAQs
Can I leave an OBD2 extender cable plugged in?
You can keep an OBD2 extender cable plugged in while you are driving as long as it doesn’t obstruct your movement or pedals. It’s safe to leave an OBD2 scanner plugged in for longer periods but it may cause your vehicle’s battery to drain.
Are all OBD2 connectors the same?
All OBD2 connectors have a standardized 16-pin configuration and are compatible across all vehicles manufactured after 1996. However, there are different protocols (e.g., CAN, ISO, PWM) used within the OBD2 system that vary for different vehicle manufacturers and models.
What are the differences between OBD2 and OBD1 cables?
OBD2 cables support a standardized configuration, providing better diagnostics and compatibility. OBD1 cables, however, vary by manufacturer, with no standard connector or protocol, making them less versatile and more limited in diagnostic capability compared to the OBD2.
Is using an OBD2 extension cable worth it?
Yes, using an OBD2 extension cable is worth it for several reasons. It provides easier access to the OBD2 port, protects the original port from wear, and allows you to position diagnostic devices flexibly. It improves convenience, especially when it comes to regular monitoring, diagnostics, and connecting multiple devices.
