Shenzhen Setolink Electronics Co., Ltd — J1962 OBD interconnect since 2006 [email protected] +852-55890919 Mon–Fri 9:00 – 18:00 HKT

J1962 OBD2 interconnect, built in-house

OBDII connectors and cable assemblies that survive the vehicle, not just the datasheet

Setolink moulds the housing, stamps and plates the terminal, crimps the cable and electrically tests the finished assembly — so a diagnostic session never fails at the port.

One partner from tooling to packed carton

Your custom OBD port, from the mould steel up

Dedicated tooling, connector moulding, terminal selection, cable and overmould — a single point of accountability instead of four suppliers pointing at each other.

119 catalogue parts, plus whatever you draw

Male, female, alloy, flat, DB9, EV — the whole J1962 family

Straight and right-angle bodies, nickel or gold plated brass terminals, ABS, PC, POM and zinc-alloy shells, ready to quote by model number.

IQC, IPQC, FQC, OQC on every order

Quality that runs through the line, not just at the end of it

ISO 9001 management with internal standards above it, first-article and patrol inspection through cutting, stripping, crimping, injection and assembly.

The problem we solve

A diagnostic session is only as good as the port it runs through

Corrupted data, failed flashes and intermittent faults are rarely the tool's fault. They start at a terminal that has lost its spring, a crimp that was never gas-tight, or a strain relief that cracked after a thousand bends in a service bay.

Setolink builds the whole path instead of buying it in: we cut the mould steel, injection-mould the housing, choose and plate the terminal, crimp and overmould the cable, then electrically test the finished assembly. When one factory owns every step, there is no one left to blame — and nothing left to go wrong between suppliers.

  • Secure — housings locked, terminals crimped to hold through vibration and shock.
  • Stable — signal integrity and power delivery that do not fluctuate mid-session.
  • Safe — pathways designed against short circuit, overload and hazard exposure.

Popular parts

Start from a part number

One representative model from each family. Every page carries the full specification table, so you can quote from the model number without a phone call.

Send us the pin-out, get a real answer

Drawing, photo of the broken part, or just the vehicle and protocol — our engineers answer with a part number or a tooling proposal, not a brochure.

Production QC flow

Inspection runs through the line, not at the end of it

Quality control is not the last hurdle. It starts at goods-in and finishes at the sealed carton, which is how defects stop reaching customers.

Incoming quality control bench checking connectors, wires and terminals

IQC — incoming

Connectors, wires, cables, terminals and accessories are checked on appearance, shape, material, dimension and colour against the drawing, specification and golden sample.

In-process inspection during crimping and assembly on the production line

IPQC — in process

Cutting, stripping, crimping, injection and assembly are covered by first-article, patrol, self, mutual and dynamic inspection through the whole run.

Packed and labelled cartons staged in the outgoing inspection area

OQC — outgoing

Packing, labels, marks, appearance, dimensions and electrical performance are verified with micrometer, caliper, scale, hardness tester, microscope and cable tester before the carton is sealed.

Inside the factory

2,000 m² in Shenzhen, 100 people, one process owner

Stamping, moulding, crimping, overmoulding, assembly and test all sit on the same floor, which is why a sample and a production part behave the same way.

Why Setolink

Why buyers keep the tooling with us

Fifteen years of signal acquisition work, condensed into six things buyers tell us actually matter.

Excellent design

Our team works in the mainstream CAD packages, reads your intent from a sketch and answers in real time. Aesthetics, material behaviour, process and cost are considered together, not in sequence.

Quick prototyping

A dedicated sampling channel runs from design review to material preparation to scheduling, using 3D printing (SLA/SLS), CNC machining and rapid prototyping — whichever proves your point fastest.

Stable production

Capacity and material are planned against your order profile, and every process step runs to a written SOP, so unit ten thousand matches unit one.

Trusted quality control

ISO 9001 management with internal standards set above it, and inspection at IQC, IPQC, FQC and OQC rather than one gate at the end.

After-sales that answers

Feedback answered within 2 hours and a solution within 24 hours; every complaint is logged, root-caused and closed through an 8D report.

3S by design

Secure mechanically, stable electrically, safe in service — the three tests every Setolink part is measured against before it ships.

Knowledge base

OBD, explained by the people who mould the port

Pin-out definitions, adapter selection and the questions buyers ask before their first order.
