OBD2 Splitter Cable, 1 Male to 2 Female, 16-Pin, 59"

• CONNECT MULTIPLE DEVICES SIMULTANEOUSLY: Split one OBD2 port into two accessible female ports to connect a GPS tracker and diagnostic scan tool at the same time without unplugging devices.
• UNIVERSAL OBD2 COMPATIBILITY: Works with most vehicles manufactured after 1996 equipped with a standard 16-pin OBD II port, including cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, and fleet vehicles.
• FLEXIBLE 59-INCH EXTENSION CABLE: Long, durable PVC cable provides convenient routing under dashboards, behind panels, or around tight spaces for clean installation.
• SIMPLE PLUG-AND-PLAY INSTALLATION: No tools or professional installation required. Just connect the splitter to your vehicle's OBD2 port and plug in your compatible devices.
• DURABLE DESIGN FOR DAILY VEHICLE USE: High-quality molded connectors and flexible cable construction designed to withstand regular vehicle vibration and movement.

The Spy Spot OBD2 Splitter Extension Cable provides a simple and reliable way to expand access to your vehicle's diagnostic port. This 1-to-2 OBD2 splitter allows you to connect multiple compatible devices simultaneously, such as a GPS tracker and diagnostic scan tool, without repeatedly unplugging equipment.

Designed for convenience and flexibility, the 59-inch extension cable makes routing easy under the dashboard or behind interior panels. The durable PVC construction supports everyday vehicle use while maintaining a secure connection to the standard 16-pin OBD2 port.

This passive splitter cable provides additional connection access without modifying vehicle systems or increasing power output. It is compatible with many diagnostic tools, telematics systems, and vehicle monitoring devices that use a standard OBD2 connection.

Ideal for personal vehicles, fleet vehicles, service vehicles, and commercial use, this splitter helps maintain continuous device connectivity while keeping installations organized and accessible.

• Vehicle Compatibility: Broadly compatible with most domestic, import, and commercial fleet vehicles manufactured from 1996 onward that are equipped with a standard 16-pin diagnostic link connector (DLC).
• Device Support: Engineered to simultaneously connect passive telematics/GPS tracking hardware and active handheld scanners, code readers, or tuning modules.

Installation & Setup Guide

This heavy-duty OBD2 Splitter Cable features a seamless "Plug & Play" design that allows you to power a hidden tracking device while leaving an open port available for mechanics and diagnostics. No cutting, splicing, or mechanical experience required.

Step 1: Locate Your Vehicle's OBD2 Port

• Where to look: In most vehicles, the diagnostic link connector (DLC) is located under the driver’s side dashboard, directly beneath the steering column or within 12 inches of it.
• What it looks like: It is a black or colored 16-pin trapezoidal socket matching the male end of your splitter cable.

Step 2: Plug in the Splitter Cable

• Take the single Male end of the SPY SPOT Splitter Cable and push it firmly into your vehicle's factory OBD2 port until it clicks securely into place.

Step 3: Connect Your Devices

Your single port is now expanded into two separate, fully wired 16-pin female connections:

• Port A (Hidden Tracker): Connect your GPS tracker, telematics unit, or fleet management device to the first female port.
• Port B (Open Diagnostic Port): Route the second female port to an accessible location under your dash. Leave this open for standard diagnostic code readers, emissions testing, or mechanics.

Step 4: Secure and Hide the Cabling

• Tuck the wires: Use the generous 59-inch cable length to route the wiring safely behind your vehicle's interior dashboard panels and away from the foot pedals.
• Mounting: Secure the hidden GPS tracker and the open diagnostic port using zip ties or dual-lock mounting tape to prevent shifting or rattling while driving.
