General Motors diagnostics cable

Jaltest OBD215 — General Motors Diagnostics Cable

The OBD215 is the General Motors diagnostics cable for the Jaltest diagnostic system, priced at $120.00 MSRP in the official 2025 Cojali USA pricelist. This cable provides the physical interface between the Jaltest Link V9 and GM vehicles requiring this specific connection — bridging the Jaltest platform to the General Motors diagnostic port protocol so technicians can run full Jaltest diagnostics on covered GM applications.

The OBD215 appears in the Jaltest LCV (Light Commercial Vehicle) cable section of the official pricelist, alongside standard OBD and Deutsch cables used for the Jaltest LCV platform. The Jaltest LCV Kit covers all ECUs on light-duty commercial vehicles — gas and diesel engines, transmissions, ABS, aftertreatment, body, and chassis — and is compatible with brands including Ford, Hino, Dodge, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, and GM. The OBD215 is the cable that makes GM coverage in that ecosystem work.

OBD215 vs. JDC405A — Understanding Your GM Cable Options

Jaltest lists two GM-specific cables at different price points. Understanding the difference before you order matters:

• OBD215 ($120.00): General Motors diagnostics cable — the primary GM connection cable for Jaltest LCV and general GM diagnostic work
• JDC405A ($210.00): GMC Chevrolet CAN Signal Wire diagnostics cable — a CAN-specific cable for certain GMC/Chevrolet applications requiring direct CAN bus signal access

If you're unsure which cable your specific GM application requires, call us at 866-217-0063 before ordering — we can help you determine whether OBD215, JDC405A, or both are needed for your coverage.

What Jaltest Can Do on Covered GM Vehicles

With the OBD215 connected to a Jaltest LCV-licensed system, technicians can access:

• All-systems ECU scanning across engine, transmission, ABS, body, and chassis controllers
• Fault code reading and clearing across all modules
• Live data streaming from all networked controllers
• Active component tests
• DPF regeneration and aftertreatment resets (where applicable)
• Injector coding and cylinder cut-out tests (where applicable)
