The Jaltest JDC557A9 connects the 3-pin diagnostic connector of Hyster and Yale forklift trucks to the 16-pin OBD2 port of your Jaltest diagnostic cable. The machine plug is round, with a black knurled ring over a grey contact holder with three positions (a round one marked in blue, a small round one and a square one) and a black locking clip at the top. Behind the OBD2 connector, the cable splits into two branches; next to the 3-pin machine plug, a thinner cable runs to a round black connector with an angled cable entry.

Hyster and Yale belong to the same manufacturer group and share their electronics, so one cable serves both brands. On the internal combustion trucks, you reach the machine computer VSM, the HLM module and the EDC Yanmar engine control; on the electric XN series, the machine computer MC, the power modules LMC and RMC, the hydraulic control HPC and E-HYDRAULICS and the DCU display. The cable works exclusively with the Jaltest Link V9, the 9 after the reference, and falls under Jaltest MHE.

PLUS POINTS

✔One cable for two brands: Hyster and Yale use the same 3-pin connector.
✔On the internal combustion trucks, reaches the machine computer VSM and the HLM module.
✔On the electric XN series also the power modules LMC and RMC, the hydraulic control HPC and the DCU display.
✔Provides access to the truck's maintenance data, with a service report.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕Works exclusively with the Jaltest Link V9; no connection is established with a Link V8.1.
✕Not every control unit provides everything; on the FT internal combustion trucks it is limited to fault codes and ECU data, while the electric series also provide measured values and maintenance.
✕The EDC Yanmar engine control is specified per model and is not on every truck.
✕Only for the round 3-pin Hyster and Yale connector; other truck brands use their own plug.

Applications and functions

Via this connection, the Jaltest software accesses the control units of the truck. Which systems are present varies greatly depending on the drive type. The internal combustion trucks have an engine control, while the electric XN series instead have power modules for traction and lifting.

Control units you can access

  • VSM: Machine computer, internal combustion trucks.
  • HLM: Control module, internal combustion trucks.
  • MC: Machine computer, XN series.
  • LMC and RMC: Power modules for traction and lifting.
  • HPC and E-HYDRAULICS: Lifting and tilt control.
  • DCU: Display, electric trucks.
  • EDC Yanmar: Engine control, diesel versions.

💡
Good to know: The 3-pin connector is located in the cab at the driver's position and can be recognised by its black knurled ring with a grey contact holder. Check this on the truck itself before ordering.
