This jiatel adapter cable is an essential tool for truck diagnostics. It converts a truck’s older J1708 6-pin diagnostic port into a modern 16-pin OBD2 female connector. This allows you to use a single diagnostic tool on both cars and heavy-duty vehicles, making it a cost-effective solution for mechanics and fleet managers.
A Simple Way to Connect Your Car Scanner to Trucks
Many older trucks and heavy-duty vehicles use a different diagnostic port than modern cars. If you have a car scanner, you can’t just plug it into a truck. Our jiatel J1708 adapter cable solves this problem. This cable connects to a truck’s 6-pin J1708 port and provides a standard 16-pin OBD2 female connection. As a result, you can use your existing diagnostic scanner on both your car and your truck, which saves you from buying a separate, expensive tool.
