No reason you couldn't replace the 16-pin connector with a 12-pin. There are only about 4 wires involved. Or, you could just get an adapter cable from AKM Electronics.

Make some little jumpers for your scanner plug to connect like this and you are all set.

It is the connector that you are trying to adapt. It does not matter what scanner it is. The connector to the DLC is the same.

Your scanner must use the two terminals to read the pcm.
