Product Description:
Engineered exclusively for Porsche vehicles with factory 19-pin OBD1 ports (pre-2000 models like the 968, 993, and 964), this adapter bridges legacy diagnostics with modern OBDII tools. By replicating Porsche’s proprietary 19-pin protocol (K-line/GND/Power/IGN + 15 auxiliary pins), it unlocks full OBD1 functionality—fault code decoding, live data streaming (engine RPM, fuel pressure, ABS status), and ECU programming—for scanners like Autel MaxiCOM or Launch X-431. The 25cm automotive-grade cable integrates gold-plated contacts, EMI shielding, and Porsche-specific pinout validation, delivering 100,000+ cycle reliability for professional workshops and Po-rsche enthusiasts.

Key features:

  • 19-Pin Protocol Match :Reverse-engineered to Po-rsche’s 19-pin OBD1 specification (pins 1:K-line, 2:GND, 3:BATT, 4:IGN, 5–19:CAN/auxiliary), this adapter eliminates signal interference for pre-2000 air-cooled and early water-cooled systems. Unlike generic adapters, it preserves factory-level data integrity, enabling accurate diagnostics for IMS bearing monitoring, DME system faults, and lambda sensor calibration—critical for maintaining Porsche’s flat-six engines.
  • Direct Plug-and-Play with Active Signal Conditioning:No wiring modifications: connect the 19-pin male to Porsche’s recessed port (typically under the passenger footwell) and attach your OBDII scanner to the 16-pin female socket. Built-in voltage regulation supports both self-powered scanners (post-1996) and vehicles requiring external 12V ignition power (pre-1996), preventing ECU voltage spikes during diagnostics.
  • Compact Design for Hidden Port Access:Optimized extension length navigates tight spaces around Porsche’s 19-pin ports (e.g., behind trim panels in 911 models). The angled 16-pin connector minimizes cable stress during prolonged use, while oxygen-free copper conductors with EMI shielding ensure stable data rates for bi-directional commands (throttle body adaptation, immobilizer reset).
  • Military-Grade Durability for Shop & Track Use:Gold-plated contacts (500+ hours salt spray tested) resist corrosion, and RoHS-compliant polycarbonate housing withstands -40°C to 85°C extremes. Certified to TS 16949 automotive standards, this adapter undergoes 10,000+ bend-cycle testing—trusted by Porsche Classic specialists for concours restorations and trackside diagnostics. Backed by a 2-year commercial warranty.
  • Professional-Grade Diagnostic Empowerment:Unlock Porsche-exclusive OBD1 data: cylinder-specific misfire counters, camshaft deviation values, and DME memory freeze frames. Ideal for shops servicing air-cooled classics: pair with PIWIS Emulator or Durametric software to perform CIS-E fuel system balancing, ABS pump tests, and emissions readiness checks—all without dealer tool subscriptions. Includes a Porsche-specific pinout diagram for advanced technicians.
  • Unmatched 7/24 Support:With 7/24 professional support Autodiag is there for you anytime, anywhere. Get in touch with our highly trained technicians whenever you need them by email or phone
