With an 80 cm length, durable PVC jacket, and precise pin mapping for the 12-pin and 8-pin Chrysler ports, it connects your diagnostic tool or VCI to the vehicle so you can perform bidirectional tests, read and clear trouble codes, and carry out service and coding procedures that are otherwise blocked by the OEM gateway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this cable bypass the FCA Secure Gateway (SGW)?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cable provides direct access to the vehicle networks by routing the diagnostic connection through both the 12-pin and 8-pin Chrysler connectors while presenting a standard 16-pin OBD2 plug to your scanner or VCI. It does not alter vehicle software; instead it allows authorized diagnostic tools to reach modules that the SGW would otherwise restrict.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDirect 12-pin and 8-pin connectors for SGW-equipped ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard 16-pin OBDII plug that mates with most scanners\/VCIs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnables diagnostics, active tests, and module coding where permitted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvoids repeated AutoAuth subscription for compatible tool workflows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat vehicles and years are compatible with the Autel 12+8 cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis adapter is intended for FCA-brand cars and SUVs that use the Secure Gateway architecture introduced around 2018 and later.
