The Jaltest MDC14 is the ETM multipin adapter cable for wear sensors. On one end sits a 16-pin OBD2 connector in a black housing marked MDC14, whilst on the other end three leads terminate in three individual test probes in blue, black and red. With these loose probes you pierce directly onto the sensor connection, rather than onto a fixed mating connector. That is what multipin means here.
With this connection you measure brake pad wear sensors on commercial vehicles using the Jaltest ETM, the test module that lets you assess components independently of the control unit. The cable does not work in isolation: you must have the ETM itself connected to a Jaltest Link, with an ETM Activation and an active CV or Modular Software Activation.
KEY BENEFITS
POINTS TO NOTE
Applications and functionality
Via this cable the Jaltest ETM communicates directly with the sensor, without intervention from the vehicle's control unit. Below is what you use the cable for and what the ETM does in the process.
What you use this cable for
- Test brake pad wear sensors: This is the helper cable for brake pad wear sensors on commercial vehicles.
- Individual test probes: You pierce the three probes directly onto the sensor connection, with no fixed mating connector.
- Companion MDC13: That cable has two test probes, in green and yellow, and is the helper cable for speed sensors.
- Always used with the ETM: The cable is used with the Jaltest ETM on a Jaltest Link.
What the ETM does
- Test components: The ETM is the component test module within Jaltest.
- EBS modulators: The cables MDC02 through MDC09 are designed for the EBS modulators from Knorr-Bremse and Wabco.
- Speed sensors: For those there are MDC12 and MDC13.
- Brake pad wear sensors: For those there are MDC10, MDC11 and MDC14.
- Connection to the Jaltest Link: Via the ETM Interface for V9 (70001007), or via the MDC100.9 adapter cable with an earlier ETM version.
What you need
- Jaltest ETM: The component test module itself.
- Jaltest Link: The ETM connects via the ETM Interface for V9 (70001007), or via the MDC100.9 adapter cable for earlier ETM versions.
- ETM licence: Without this licence, the ETM will not operate. Annual renewal carries reference 29701.
- An active Jaltest Software Activation: A CV Activation or a Modular Activation. Other modules cannot be combined with the ETM.
