Autel Euro5 6-Pin to 16-Pin OBD2 Adapter Cable – 30 cm motorcycle diagnostic converter, shielded connectors

Autel’s Euro5 6-pin to 16-pin OBD2 adapter cable converts a motorcycle’s proprietary 6-pin diagnostic port into a standard 16-pin OBD2 connection for handheld scanners and VCIs.

This compact 30 cm (1 ft) adapter cable bridges newer Euro5 motorcycle diagnostic ports and mainstream OBD2 diagnostic tools, enabling data exchange for troubleshooting and maintenance. Built for repeated use, the cable uses precision-molded connectors and shielded wiring to maintain a stable signal between a motorcycle’s ECU and your scanner. It’s sold as a single-purpose wiring adapter — no software or electronics included — so compatibility depends on the bike’s pinout and the scanner’s support for motorcycle protocols.

Which motorcycles commonly work with this 6-pin to 16-pin adapter?

The adapter is designed to match Euro5-spec 6-pin motorcycle connectors found on a range of modern bikes from several manufacturers. It’s often used on late-model Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Ducati motorcycles that adopted Euro5 wiring. Always visually compare the bike’s port to the adapter’s 6-pin shape before purchase.

• Typical fits: many 2017–2024 Suzuki, 2020+ Honda and Yamaha, 2021+ Kawasaki and Ducati models.
• Intended for Euro5 6-pin diagnostic ports, not older 4- or 12-pin plugs.
• If uncertain, inspect the motorcycle port or contact Autel support with a photo for confirmation.

How do I connect the Autel 6-pin adapter to my scanner?

Making the connection is straightforward and takes just a few steps: plug the 6-pin end into the bike’s diagnostic port, attach the 16-pin end to your scanner or VCI cable, then power up the diagnostic tool. The cable performs only physical pin translation and data pass-through; the scanner must support the motorcycle’s protocol to interpret live data and fault codes.

• Step 1: Insert the 6-pin connector securely into the motorcycle port.
• Step 2: Plug the 16-pin connector into your diagnostic tool or VCI lead.
• Step 3: Power the scanner and follow on-screen prompts to begin diagnostics.

What build quality and reliability can I expect from this adapter?

The cable uses robust materials and a precision-molded connector design aimed at repeated connect/disconnect cycles and consistent signal transfer. Autel specifies high durability for long-term workshop use, and the compact length reduces cable stress during handling. While the adapter is engineered for reliability, treating connectors gently extends service life.

• Length: about 30 cm (1 ft) for tidy bench or roadside use.
• Precision injection-molded housings reduce loosening and wear.
• Shielded wiring minimizes interference and protects data integrity.

What support and return options are available if it doesn't fit?

Autel backs the adapter with a one-year warranty and a short return window for buyer protection. If the adapter doesn’t match your motorcycle’s port or you experience issues, reach out to Autel support for troubleshooting, compatibility checks, or return instructions.

• One-year limited warranty coverage from Autel.
• 30-day return policy for a no-reason return when incompatible.
• Customer support available to verify compatibility and provide solutions.

Who is this for: This adapter is aimed at professional mechanics, independent motorcycle technicians and DIY riders who own OBD2-compatible scanners and need a simple, durable cable to connect Euro5 6-pin motorcycle ports to standard 16-pin diagnostic tools. It’s best for users who already have diagnostic hardware and are confident their scanner supports motorcycle protocols, or who can verify fitment beforehand.
