CNH DPA5 Diagnostic Kit Troubleshooting Volvo/Mack 2013
This section applies to the 2013 and newer Volvo/Mack chassis with Volvo engines and does not apply to the Volvo/Mack chassis with a Cummins engine.
Beginning in 2013, Volvo introduced a new diagnostic connector for a Volvo/Mack chassis with a Volvo engine. It is based “in part” on the SAE standard J1962 (OBDII) connector. It has two separate CAN channels with ISO15765 on CAN Channel 1 and J1939 on CAN channel 2. It also has J1708/J1587.
Since a second CAN channel and a J1708 channel that are not part of the J1962 OBDII standard, this has required every diagnostic adapter vendor to develop a new cable (or set of cables) for this specific platform.
The next sections discuss the special cables created for this platform, and how to troubleshoot the DPA 5 interaction with this platform.
Use the DG-DPA5-9OBDII-CABLE for Troubleshooting
Connect this cable to the OBDII connector on the vehicle.
This cable only works for Volvo PTT, DG Diagnostics (OBDII), or third-party applications like PocketFleet Diagnostics. A user cannot connect to a
component application like Allison, Eaton, Meritor-WABCO, or Bendix through this cable!!!
If you want to run component applications like Allison, Eaton, Meritor-WABCO, you will need to add the DG-V130XOVER-CABLE (see below).
