BMW K+DCAN Diagnostic Cable

The TAURKENAM K+DCAN OBDII cable connects a laptop to BMW vehicles built between 1998 and 2020. It uses an FT232RQ chip on a green PCB and includes a hardware switch that selects between the K-line and D-CAN protocols. The 2 metre USB cable is tested before shipment.

Windows-only workshops and Android MHD users

Technicians who need dealer-level functions such as coding, adaptations and SSS programming on supported BMW engines will find the cable covers the required protocols. It does not run on macOS, Linux or iOS, so Apple users and mobile-only diagnosticians must choose a different interface.

FT232RQ chip with protocol switch

The FT232RQ USB-to-serial controller drives both K-line and D-CAN lines through a physical toggle, enabling full EDIABAS and INPA communication on N54, N55, N55E, S55, B58 and N13 engines. Antivirus software may flag the installer, so it must be disabled during setup.

Questions about this item

What OBD-II port and USB connector does the TAURKENAM K+DCAN cable use for BMW diagnostics?

The cable plugs into the vehicle 16-pin OBD-II socket and terminates in a standard USB-A plug with an FT232RQ chip; a USB-C adapter is required for devices that only have USB-C ports.

Which driver must be installed before connecting the TAURKENAM K+DCAN cable on Windows 10?

Install the FTDI FT232RQ virtual COM-port driver first, then set the cable switch to the K-line or D-CAN position before launching INPA, EDIABAS or MHD Flasher; anti-virus software may flag the installer and should be paused.

Will the TAURKENAM K+DCAN cable still work if the green PCB or FT232RQ chip fails after extended use?

The green PCB and FT232RQ chip are not user-serviceable; a failure requires replacing the entire cable assembly.
