They are among the leading developers and suppliers of active safety technologies, energy management solutions, and air brake charging and control systems and components in North America. Their target products are medium- and heavy-duty trucks, trailers, buses, tractors, and other commercial vehicles only. 

A pioneer in this field, Bendix is committed to delivering optimized solutions for improved vehicle safety, performance, and overall operating cost. It all started in 1924 with the launch of Bendix Corporation, initially engaged in the manufacture of automotive braking systems. In 1983, Bendix Corporation became a subsidiary of Allied Corporation which later merged with Honeywell in 1999.

Bendix Diagnostic Tool

Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems became a member of the Knorr-Bremse group in 2002 after its acquisition. The Bendix brand of light and medium-duty brake products is manufactured by MAT Holdings, Inc.

Let us check the company’s product details.

The Functions Of the Bendix Diagnostic Software

As we have seen from the brief history and products of Bendix, their efforts are largely channeled towards safety systems in commercial vehicles such as trucks and trailers. These are very complex systems more so in today’s complex vehicles where the safety components are increasingly interconnected. Hence, it is essential that you know precisely what to check and where to check whenever a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) pops up. 

What is DTC that checks the health of vehicle systems and warns drivers of any malfunction? Every modern vehicle today is fitted with an onboard computer with a display screen that is tucked below the dashboard on the driver’s side. Whenever a fault occurs with any system or component, a warning light flashes on the screen along with a DTC typically in an alpha-numeric format.

Bendix Commercial Vehicle Diagnostic Software

The light conveys a simple message – some fault in your truck requires attention and needs to be checked before any minor issue becomes a major problem leading to prolonged downtime. The first response to an indicated electronics problem might be to remove or replace components. But at times, components are not an issue, and it is here that the Bendix commercial vehicle system diagnostic software needs to be run to understand what is wrong with the vehicle and take quick corrective action.

When you are running the software by connecting the laptop to the onboard computer of the vehicle, there are several things that will show up. You will get a system view of what is wrong with the key vehicle components especially if more than one component indicates the presence of the same active fault codes. 

In many instances the DTCs are temporary in nature that is, by fixing a minor issue like a loose wire or clearing accumulated debris, the indicator warning lights will be deactivated. These fault codes are typically cleared within a few driving cycles but if not, the matter must be investigated further with an optimized Bendix diagnostic tool. It will bring the faulty truck back on the road and in good performing condition as quickly as possible. 

Before diagnosing a fault, it must be remembered that the various systems of a commercial vehicle are connected with one another. Multiple control units (ECUs) share necessary information over the J1939 network. For example, automated transmissions must get essential information from the engines if they are to run at peak operating efficiency.

Bendix Brake Diagnostic Scanner

Hence, before assuming that an active fault code in an advanced system means that there is a malfunction in the system, you must ensure that you are using a tool that gives overall visibility of the entire system and components. One such tool is the Bendix Acom diagnostics software which shows the fault codes of the entire vehicle.

It is interesting to learn what Brian Screeton, Bendix supervisor – Technical Service Training has to say in this regard. “A tool that shows you an active DTC on the engine retarder, for instance, tells you that you need to troubleshoot that issue first, because it may be the cause of your adaptive cruise control DTC. In fact, we recommend technicians always troubleshoot any active engine faults first because of the way they impact other system faults.”

When the ACom diagnostics software is used, it automatically identifies and collects all fault codes from Bendix electronic control units on the vehicle, regardless of whether the DTCs are active or inactive. These include critical vehicle systems such as the engines, transmissions, and more.

The advantage of using the Bendix diagnostic tool is that you get precise information about what is wrong with the truck instead of wasting time falling back on guesswork from a prepopulated list of components.

The Need for An All-Round Diagnostic Software

As we have seen, modern trucks have complex systems that are interconnected. While Bendix provides specialized components, there are several others that are not from this brand but act as a critical part of running those from Bendix. Hence, to check on the overall health of a truck, you need diagnostic software that includes all systems and components. This is where our Jaltest diagnostic software for commercial vehicles comes in very handy.

The Jaltest maintenance tool is ideally suited for a wide range of commercial vehicles and offers advanced and cutting-edge solutions. It provides maintenance data, vehicle data, injector coding, VGT (Variable Geometry Turbocharger), and more. Even when a component has to be changed, the software offers replacement guides and will help you navigate through the process so that optimized resolutions may be implemented.

Additionally, there are several maintenance solutions that are handled by our Jaltest software. You can actuate body components, calibrate VGT and code injectors, calibrate transmissions, get wiring diagrams, technical information, component replacement instructions, repair times, and more. From simple fault code clearance to complex ones such as forced regens, system checks, parameter settings, calibrations, and others, the Jaltest software has you covered.  

When it comes to resolving fault codes of heavy or medium-duty trucks and semi-trucks in combination with the Bendix ABS diagnostic tool, Jaltest is a leader in the field. This is because diagnosis is made easy through live technical data and information along with detailed wiring diagrams to pinpoint the location of the fault. 

With the tool, you can set parameters for critical activities like speed limits and idle speeds, code injectors, and bleed braking systems for all types and makes of semi-trucks. Also available are system scans such as after-treatment and other resolutions for antitheft, brakes, electronic control modules, engines, hybrid systems, safety, and transmissions.

Capabilities of the Bendix Diagnostic Software

The Bendix diagnostic tool is an all-inclusive diagnostic tool that covers all Bendix electronic systems and ECUs. It offers support for Bendix ABS, Bendix ESP, Wingman Fusion, SmarTire, Intellipark, GSBC, GSAT and many more. 

To get the best out of the Bendix diagnostic software, integrate the OEM tool into the Jaltest software for a seamless experience. This allows former ACom PRO subscribers an easy upgrade since Bendix ACom diagnostics replaces it as of September 1st, 2024 provided the Jaltest license is active. If you need to renew your ACom PRO license, you must purchase the new ACom AE license as the previous Bendix Acom diagnostics tool is no longer available. 

Here are some of the key benefits of the amalgamation of the Jaltest and the Bendix commercial vehicle system software.

  • You can generate Bendix OEM DTC reports for comprehensive diagnostics and access Bendix-exclusive service data sheets and technical information for accurate and reliable maintenance.
  • Get expanded coverage with an OEM interface since Jaltest users won’t need to purchase any additional adapter to work with Bendix ACom when using the Jaltest v9 Link.
  • Additionally, ACom AE enables parameter modifications on trailers, supports SLC25 anti-collision systems, GSBC, GSAT, and end-of-line trailer testing. 

Bendix Trailer ABS Diagnostic Tool

Trailers play a major role in the commercial vehicle landscape in the USA and one of the critical systems connected with trailers is the anti-lock braking system (ABS), It is an electronic system that ensures that a trailer is stable and steers well while braking. For example, if hard brakes are applied especially on wet and slippery roads, ABS prevents the wheels from locking up.

Bendix Diagnostic Tool

When the auxiliary circuit is first powered on, the ABS runs a self-check and the status light comes on after 3 to 5 seconds. If that does not happen, it indicates a fault that must be identified with the Bendix trailer ABS diagnostic tool. 

Summing Up

With the Bendix diagnostic tool, you can carry out full system scans periodically to check the health of the systems and components such as the Bendix active safety technologies, vehicle dynamic systems, air supply and air management solutions, steering solutions, trailer solutions, and more. Any fault even of a temporary nature is thereby quickly identified and the fault cleared before it becomes a major problem. 

This preventive maintenance program undertaken at regular intervals will keep your commercial vehicles on the road without downtime and get maximum performance from them.

The other side of preventive maintenance is scanning by symptoms where a specific fault with the Bendix commercial vehicle system is detected and cleared.

Either way, the Bendix diagnostic tool is a must-have software for owners of commercial vehicles with Bendix systems and components.

Before proceeding with the various aspects of the Jaltest software for agricultural vehicles, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of fault codes, the key to running the Jaltest diagnostic tool.

Fault codes, usually in alpha-numeric format pop up on the display screen of the onboard computer whenever a malfunction occurs in any system or component of the AGV. These codes are different for makes and models of agricultural vehicles even though the nature of the fault might be the same. Hence, when analyzing a fault code with the Jaltest agriculture code reader, it is necessary first to enter the type and make of vehicle before going on to fault clearing processes.

Fault codes, also known as Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are a measure of the state of the systems and components of the agricultural vehicle. Temporary fault codes are issues that are minor in nature and usually go away after a few driving cycles. When that does not happen, it is permanent fault codes that require the intervention of our Jaltest AGV diagnostic scanner to clear.

Based on these fault codes, let us now elaborate on how the Jaltest agricultural diagnostic tool works. 

Functioning Of The Jaltest Agricultural Diagnostic Scanner 

The Jaltest AGV kit is a highly optimized software that not only accurately diagnoses fault codes but also offers the right solutions to get your AGVs back on the job again. All the necessary features are built into the software that makes diagnosis and resolutions a breeze. You do not have to refer to bulky manuals or call certified engineers at the drop of a hat to get dealer-level services, the Jaltest agriculture scan tool clears fault codes effortlessly for you.

Once you access the diagnostic menu of the Jaltest software, there will be several options before you. Among the system and component analysis that will be displayed on your software laptop are recommended resolutions on various aspects.

What makes the Jaltest agricultural equipment diagnostic tool a cut above the others is the deep coverage offered by it. You get detailed wiring diagrams of systems that help you to locate the precise position of the fault. You get technical data that enables you to understand the nature of a fault and the resolution required. Further, during fault analysis and diagnosis, information can be had in real-time so that you know the current nature and status of the problem.

All these together assist users in maximizing fault code reading and getting accurate solutions since they are backed by technical data and information, main system scans, special functions (shortcuts), or all system scans. For example, you can configure the right tire size needed, lighting, precisely calibrate transmissions and rear hitches, and so much more.

It is necessary here to further explain the distinction between full system scans and scanning by symptoms in our Jaltest agricultural vehicle or equipment diagnostic tool.

Full system scans are a form of preventive maintenance where all systems and components are scanned periodically. Any temporary fault code therefore can be quickly identified before it becomes a major issue that might lead to downtime and stoppage of work. Among the work done as a part of full system scans is keeping a close tab on engines, hydraulic systems, instrument clusters, electronic control modules (ECMs), central computers, powertrains, and other critical components.

Regular full-system scans help to keep your equipment on the job without a forced break and make sure that your agricultural vehicle is always in peak performance mode.

The other is scanning by symptoms where any fault code that pops up is cleared through specific action related to that symptom only. It might be related to engines, hydraulics, transmissions, HVAC, or even if there is a necessity to change or repair a component. Among the areas where you can scan by symptoms are performing force regens, code injectors, setting up flows and pressures on excavators, calibrating transmissions, and many others.

Whatever might be the fault code, our Jaltest agriculture scan tool has your back.

Jaltest Agricultural Diagnostic Software And Forced Regens

Most heavy-duty agricultural vehicles and equipment are powered by diesel engines. To cut emissions, such engines have what is known as a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) whose purpose is to trap small particles from emissions to ensure a clean environment. Over time though, the dpf gets clogged with particles and soot which if not cleared might lead to engine seizure or the vehicle going into limp mode.

Jaltest Agricultural Diagnostic Software on a laptop, enabling advanced diagnostics and forced regens for farm equipment

This typically happens when it goes beyond the capabilities of passive regens to clear the soot accumulation. This state of the engine will be shown as a fault code which must then be cleared through the recommendations of the Jaltest AGV diagnostic software. The options for fault resolution range from High to Very High depending on the extent of the clogged filter.

The typical forced regens solution is to run the engine on high rev for about 40 minutes. The rise in temperature of the emission gasses burns away the soot in the DPF. However, it is advisable to clean the DPF manually if it is more than 75% clogged.

Summing Up

The Jaltest agricultural diagnostics software is a highly optimized tool that ensures your AGVs and agricultural equipment are operating optimally. The highly advanced features, detailed wiring diagrams, and technical data provided in real time make this software a leader in its class.

Force Regens and The Jaltest CV Diagnostic Tool

Engines are at the core of the running of any commercial vehicle and any trouble code related to it should be promptly addressed. It is advisable not to run the vehicle and to move it to an area where the fault can be checked and rectified.

Most commercial vehicles especially trucks, semi-trucks, buses, vans, and other passenger-carrying vehicles are powered by diesel engines. Among the most common issues that arise, especially in short-haul vehicles with stop-go-stop operations such as local buses and vans is soot buildup in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). When this happens, the filter must immediately be cleaned to prevent the engine from seizing up and the vehicle going into limp mode.

This condition to the DPF typically occurs when passive regens are not capable of clearing the filter and forced regens have to be applied. This process necessitates running the vehicle at high engine rev so that the increase in temperature of the exhaust gasses can burn away the soot buildup. 

When a fault code related to this trouble is displayed, connect the Jaltest commercial vehicle maintenance software to the onboard computer and you will be guided through the forced regens procedure and the specific rev the engine has to be run and the time. You can either drive the vehicle at high rev or keep it stationary and run the engine only. 

However, if the DPF clogging is more than 75%, it is recommended that you should have it cleaned manually.

Forced Regens and Jaltest Heavy Equipment Diagnostic Tool

Most heavy-duty trucks, off-highway vehicles, and construction equipment are powered by diesel engines that have a diesel particulate filter (DPF) that cuts down on particles in the emissions. This makes for a cleaner environment. 

However, if not attended to and cleaned regularly, soot and other particles accumulate in the DPF, lowering engine performance, increasing fuel consumption, and in worst-case scenarios, pushing the vehicle or equipment to limp mode.

In such cases, a fault code will show on the display of the onboard computer and when connected to the Jaltest heavy equipment diagnostic tool, you will be guided on the best way to clear the soot accumulation in the DPF. This is done through forced regeneration or forced regens, an activity that becomes necessary when passive regens are unable to clear the built-up soot. 

The process involves running the vehicle or construction equipment at high rev for about 40 minutes. The rise in temperature of the exhaust gasses burns away the soot, thereby cleaning the DPF. Based on the extent of soot in the DPF, our software will guide you on the engine rev and the time required for forced regens.
