Meritor WABCO has been a leader in the heavy truck brake field for many years. With so many electrical components in today's vehicles, many shops are purchasing diagnostic equipment to help troubleshoot their trucks and trailers and avoid paying the fees that many dealerships charge in order to use their equipment. There are a variety of heavy duty scanners on the market including Noregon's JPRO Heavy Duty Software Fleets 11201-11206, Nexiq's Pro-Link IQ 188001 and OTC's Genisys with Heavy Duty Standard OTC3871HD. All three of these scanners offer users the ability to read and clear fault codes, set parameters, view running live and stored data, and troubleshoot their trucks.
It is easy to read trouble codes from a heavy duty vehicle with the help of any of the aforementioned diagnostic equipment. With so many different tools and brands being available, it is important to do your research and find the tool that best suits your needs. If you need the best diagnostic information out there, look to the factory OEM software suite. Software comes with a special key code to unlock the information on your Nexiq IQ scanner.
