Why need FCA 12+8 universal adapter?
All 2018 FCA (FIAT/CHRYSLER/ALAFA ROMEO) vehicles are equipped with SGW safety gateway modules to prevent access to the vehicle from the OBD2 port via a non-original diagnostic scanner. The purpose of the FCA 12+ 8 Universal Adapter cable is to prevent attacks on the vehicle network via CAN bus.

There are two FCA 12+8 Adapters for selecting.
Option 1:  OBDSTAR FCA 12+8 ADAPTER
Option 2: Autel FCA 12+8 Adapter Cable

How to use FCA 12+8 Universal Adapter?
1.Locate and unplug the 12pin and 8PIN connectors of the SGW module.
2.Then connect the FCA 12+8 directly to the 12pin and 8pin (two connectors connected to the SGW) connector on the car.
Note: the gateway connector is generally behind the CD player (Commander, Cherokee), under the co- pilot glove box (Grand Cherokee), and under the steering wheel (Compass, Wrangler)
