Description
The CANchecked OBD2 Connection Cable for MFD15 Gen2 Displays is designed to provide direct OBD2 and CAN bus communication between a compatible CANchecked display and supported Volkswagen and Audi vehicles.
Specifically designed for applications using Terminal 15 (KL15 / Pin 1) as the ignition-switched power source, the cable allows the MFD15 Gen2 display to access live vehicle data and diagnostic information through the factory OBD2 port.
Once connected, the MFD15 can display real-time OBD2 parameters broadcast by the vehicle's control modules, including engine data, operating values, and stored fault codes. Compatible pre-configured CANchecked OBD TRI files help simplify setup and allow users to configure the display with minimal effort.
The cable supports displaying up to 128 OBD2 values, providing comprehensive access to vehicle data through the CANchecked monitoring system.
With a 2-meter cable length, the connection cable provides flexible routing while maintaining a clean, plug-and-play connection between the MFD15 Gen2 display and the vehicle's diagnostic port.

OBD2 & CAN Bus Communication
The CANchecked OBD2 Connection Cable provides a direct communication path between the MFD15 Gen2 display and the vehicle's OBD2 port.
The cable connects the required OBD2 terminals for power, ground, and CAN communication:
- Pin 1: Terminal 15 / KL15 ignition-switched power
- Pins 4 and 5: Ground
- Pin 6: CAN High
- Pin 14: CAN Low
This configuration allows the MFD15 Gen2 to access compatible vehicle data transmitted through the OBD2 interface.
OBD2 Data Monitoring
When connected to a compatible vehicle, the MFD15 Gen2 can display available OBD2 parameters and diagnostic information from the vehicle's control modules.
Up to 128 OBD2 values can be displayed, depending on the vehicle and available data. Supported information may include engine operating parameters, vehicle values, and stored fault codes.
Actual data availability depends on the specific vehicle, control modules, and OBD2 implementation.
OBD TRI File Compatibility
The cable is compatible with pre-configured CANchecked OBD TRI files, helping simplify the setup process for supported applications.
These configuration files can be used to configure the MFD15 Gen2 for the relevant vehicle and available OBD2 data, reducing the amount of manual configuration required.
Installation
The CANchecked OBD2 Connection Cable is designed for a plug-and-play connection between the MFD15 Gen2 display and the vehicle's factory OBD2 port.
The 2-meter cable length allows the cable to be routed cleanly between the diagnostic port and the display.
Before installation, verify that the vehicle uses Terminal 15 / KL15 on OBD2 Pin 1, as this cable is specifically configured for that power arrangement.
