The Jaltest JDC207A connects the 4-pin diagnostic connector of the MAN TG series to the 16-pin OBD2 input of your Jaltest diagnostic cable. The vehicle-side end is a compact round plug with a bayonet ring and a red inner ring; in the black pin holder, twelve positions are recessed, of which four are occupied. The cable is 28 to 30 cm long and the connector is located in the cab.

The TG series has a fully CAN-based vehicle network built around the central control unit FFR. With the cable connected, the Jaltest software reaches the FFR, the common rail injection EDC 7 C3/C32, the older EDC MS 6.1, the AS Tronic gearboxes and Ecomat 2, and the brake, retarder, air preparation and exhaust gas systems. The cable works with the Jaltest Link V8.1 and V9 and falls under Jaltest CV.

ADVANTAGES

✔Reaches the common rail injection EDC 7 C3/C32, including the Master-Slave version, and the older EDC MS 6.1.
✔Also the central vehicle control unit FFR, the body computers ZBR2 and ZFR and the on-board diagnostic unit OBDU.
✔Transmission AS Tronic and Ecomat 2, plus the retarders PriTarder, Voith, EST-48/52 and VERA.
✔Fits the TGA (2000 - 2005) and the TGL and TGM (2004 - 2005) with this connector.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕For the AS Tronic, Jaltest offers gearbox parameter setting as a separate function; this is different from standard fault code diagnostics.
✕Only for the 4-pin TG connector; the older series F 90, F 2000 and L 2000 have the 37-pin plug and require the JDC210A.
✕From Euro IV (October 2005) MAN supplied the 16-pin OBD2 connector; on those trucks you connect directly.
✕At 28 to 30 cm, the cable is short, so you work close to the connector in the cab.

Applications and functionality

The cable is intended for workshops reading early MAN TG trucks with the Jaltest Link. Because the units are linked via the central vehicle control unit, the list is longer than for the 37-pin predecessors. Which units are present depends on specification and year of manufacture.

How to use it

  1. Check the connector: Look for the 4-pin connector with red ring.
  2. Connect: Plug the JDC207A on and tighten the bayonet 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: Select MAN, the TG series and the system.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The connector is what counts, not the model. The cable matches the TG generation of MAN, which began in 2000 with the TGA. The end year is October 2005, when the 16-pin OBD2 connector became mandatory for trucks. What MAN built before the TG series has the 37-pin plug and falls under the JDC210A.

MAN:

  • TGA: 2000 - 2005.
  • TGL: 2004 - 2005.
  • TGM: 2004 - 2005.
💡
Good to know: MAN used three generations of diagnostic connector in succession. The F 90, G 90, M 90 and 2000 family series have the wide 37-pin plug (JDC210A), the TG series from 2000 to 2005 has this compact 4-pin with the red inner ring, and from Euro IV the 16-pin OBD2 connector followed. Check the red ring in your cab before ordering.
