No they only work with EOBD/OBD2 although you can use them to determine if it is SDL/KWP if you manually send commands from a terminal emulator such as HyperTerminal. An SDL/KWP ECU will correctly respond with a 'not supported' message when asked for OBD2 data.

Some Suzukis and a bunch of motorcycles.
