The Jaltest JDC561A9 is officially described as a diagnostic cable for Hitachi with Isuzu engines, 8-pin and converts that 8-pin engine connector to the standard 16-pin OBD2-interface. The connector is located in the engine wiring harness at the engine itself, not at the diagnostic port in the cab. The cable measures 30 cm and is designed for use with the Jaltest Link V9.

On the interface side, there is a black 16-pin OBD2 socket with the OBD symbol on the housing. The engine side is identifiable by its shape: a grey, square connector housing with a green sealing ring in the opening, a rubber grommet on the cable and a black overmoulded section behind it. Halfway along, a thinner line branches off to a DC power socket; the 6-pin JDC560A9 has at that point a fully black housing without green sealing. The cable falls under Jaltest OHW (Off-Highway machines).

KEY BENEFITS

Connects to the 8-pin engine wiring harness of Isuzu engines, the configuration that the 6-pin cable does not support.
Accesses the 4HK1 and 4JJ1 engine control units directly at the engine side.
Also suitable for machines where engine diagnostics run via CAN instead of K-Line.
The grey connector body with green sealing makes it immediately clear that you have the 8-pin version in your hands.

IMPORTANT NOTES

For the 8-pin engine connector only; machines with the fully black 6-pin connector body require the JDC560A9.
The AdBlue/DEF system is only present on machines with exhaust aftertreatment, such as the newer Zaxis generations.
The machine systems (MC machine computer, ICF gateway and MON display) are accessed via the diagnostic connector in the cab, not via this engine connector.
Alongside the diagnostic lead is a branch with DC power connector; in the product photo a separate power cable with right-angle connector is shown next to it.

Applications and functionality

Through this connection you access the engine control unit of the machine using Jaltest software. Which version is present depends on the engine and the Zaxis generation.

Control units you can access

  • 4HK1 and 4JJ1 (K-Line) — Isuzu common-rail engine control: The common-rail engine control of the Isuzu four-cylinder, in K-Line configuration.
  • 4HK1 and 4JJ1 (CAN) — Isuzu common-rail engine control: The same engine control on newer machines with CAN connectivity.
  • ECM — engine control: The engine control as Jaltest specifies for the heavier Isuzu engines.
  • AdBlue/DEF Isuzu — exhaust aftertreatment: The aftertreatment control on machines equipped with AdBlue system.

What you can do

  • Read and clear fault codes: Access the fault memory of the control unit, with descriptions of detected faults.
  • View live data: The current sensor values connected to the control unit, displayed as figures and graphs.
  • Track maintenance: Record maintenance intervals and completed work, with a service report.
  • Perform additional functions: The extra procedures that Jaltest offers per control unit, where available for your system.

Compatible vehicles and applications

The connector determines compatibility, not the model. This cable fits any Hitachi machine where the Isuzu engine has the 8-pin connector in the engine harness. The engine series listed below are covered by Jaltest OHW; you can identify the version by the housing: Grey with green seal belongs to this cable, solid black to the JDC560A9.

Hitachi - Isuzu engine series:

  • Isuzu 4HK1 (in Zaxis ZX200-3 to ZX200-6): (2007 - 2021)
  • Isuzu 4JJ1 (in Zaxis ZX100/ZX200 series): (2007 - 2021)
  • Isuzu 6WG1 (in Zaxis ZX500/ZX800 series): (2007 - present)
  • Isuzu 6HK1 (in Zaxis ZX330-3, ZX350-3, ZX400-3): Model year not applicable
  • Isuzu 6UZ1 (in Zaxis ZX450/ZX470 series): Model year not applicable
💡
Good to know: The engine connector is located on the engine within the engine wiring harness, not at the diagnostic socket in the cab. A grey connector body with green sealing indicates the 8-pin version, whilst a fully black connector body indicates the 6-pin version. Check which connector is fitted to your machine before ordering.
