The Jaltest JDC204A connects the 16-pin diagnostic connector of Wabco brake systems to the 16-pin OBD2 input of your Jaltest diagnostic cable. On the vehicle side is a round plug with a knurled coupling ring and a numbered pin holder with sixteen positions, of which six are occupied. It is a serial connection, not a CAN connection, and the cable is 28 to 30 cm long.

The plug is located on or near the brake control unit, not at the vehicle's OBD location. With the cable connected, the Jaltest software reaches the ABS/ASR family, the EBS family and the hydraulic brake systems HABS D and HBS AddOn-E. The cable works with the Jaltest Link V8.1 and V9 and falls under Jaltest CV.

ADVANTAGES

✔What matters is the Wabco brake control unit, not the make of the truck, bus or work machine around it.
✔Covers the ABS/ASR family and EBS family of Wabco, plus the hydraulic brake systems HABS D and HBS AddOn-E.
✔On these systems you control valves and other components directly to check their operation.
✔Parameters and calibrations are also available for the Wabco systems for which Jaltest offers these procedures.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕Setting parameters and calibrating differs per system: not every Wabco brake system offers the same procedures.
✕Only for the 16-pin Wabco connector; Wabco trailer brake systems have their own connector and require a JDC103A or JDC110A.
✕You cannot reach the Wabco systems for suspension, safety and tyre pressure with this cable; they have their own connector.
✕At 28 to 30 cm the cable is short, so you work close to the control unit the plug is attached to.

Applications and functions

The cable is intended for workshops that read out the Wabco brake control unit of trucks, buses and work machines with the Jaltest Link. Because the cable follows the control unit and not the chassis builder, you find the same connector on different brands. The systems below are from the Wabco coverage of Jaltest.

Control units you can access

  • ABS SAE: Anti-lock braking system.
  • ABS/ASR C and D/E: Anti-lock braking system.
  • ABS/ASR E: K Line and CAN version.
  • EBS Asia and EBS ZM: Electronic braking system.
  • EBS Euro Gen 2 and Gen 3: Electronic braking system.
  • HABS D: Hydraulic braking system.
  • HBS AddOn-E: Hydraulic braking system.

What you can do

  • Fault codes: Read and clear after repair.
  • Measured values: View in figures and graphs.
  • Valves: Control and test directly.
  • Live monitoring: Follow values during a test.
  • Parameters: Where Jaltest offers this.
  • Calibrations: Where Jaltest offers this.

How to use it

  1. Locating the plug: Find the round connector at the brake control unit.
  2. Connecting: Plug in the JDC204A and tighten the coupling ring.
  3. Link connection: Connect the OBD2 end to the diagnostic cable.
  4. Ignition on: Switch the ignition on without starting the engine.
  5. Reading out: Select the vehicle and the Wabco brake system.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The brake control unit matters, not the vehicle make. The cable fits any truck, bus or work machine with a Wabco brake control unit with a 16-pin diagnostic connector. Because that plug is on or at the control unit and not at the OBD location, it remains in use on newer vehicles too.

Application:

  • Trucks, buses and work vehicles: With a Wabco brake control unit with a 16-pin diagnostic connector.
  • Vehicle make: Not decisive; the cable follows the Wabco control unit, not the chassis builder.
  • Older vehicles: The ABS/ASR generations of Wabco belong to earlier build years.
💡
Good to know: The 16-pin Wabco connector is a separate system plug and is not located at the vehicle's OBD location. The round pin holder is numbered up to sixteen, but only six positions are occupied; this is normal. Check the plug on your brake control unit before ordering.
