3. Setup and Installation
The Leapiture OBDII Diagnostic Cable is designed for straightforward plug-and-play installation. Follow these steps to connect the cable to your vehicle and diagnostic tool:
- Locate the OBDII Port: In most vehicles, the OBDII port is located under the dashboard on the driver's side. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual if you cannot find it.
- Connect to Vehicle: Plug the OBDII connector end of the diagnostic cable into your vehicle's OBDII port. Ensure a secure connection.
- Connect to Scan Tool: Plug the DB15 connector end of the diagnostic cable into the corresponding port on your Konnwei scan tool (e.g., KW807, KW808, KW809, KW818, KW820).

4. Operating Instructions
Once the Leapiture OBDII Diagnostic Cable is correctly connected to your vehicle and Konnwei scan tool, the operation is primarily managed through the scan tool itself. The cable acts as a data conduit, ensuring reliable communication.
- Initiate Scan: Follow the instructions provided with your specific Konnwei scan tool to initiate a diagnostic scan.
- Read Data: The scan tool will display various diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), live data streams, and other vehicle information.
- Clear Codes (if applicable): If your scan tool supports it, you may be able to clear DTCs after addressing the underlying issue.
Always refer to your Konnwei scan tool's user manual for detailed operating procedures and specific functions.
5. Maintenance
Proper care and maintenance will extend the life of your diagnostic cable:
- Storage: Store the cable in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Handling: Avoid sharp bends, kinks, or excessive pulling on the cable, especially near the connectors.
- Cleaning: If necessary, gently wipe the cable with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the cable and connectors for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires or bent pins. Discontinue use if damage is observed.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues while using the diagnostic cable, consider the following:
- No Connection: Ensure both the OBDII connector and the DB15 connector are fully and securely plugged into their respective ports.
- Scan Tool Not Powering On: Verify that your vehicle's ignition is in the 'ON' position (or engine running, as required by your scan tool) and that the scan tool itself is functioning correctly.
- Intermittent Connection: Check the cable for any visible damage. Try gently wiggling the connectors to see if the connection stabilizes.
- Incompatible Device: Confirm that your scan tool is one of the compatible Konnwei models (KW807, KW808, KW809, KW818, KW820).
If problems persist, consult the user manual for your Konnwei scan tool or contact Leapiture customer support.
