The Jaltest MDC05 is the test cable between the 4-pin EBS connector of a Knorr-Bremse EBS module, except for MAN, and the 16-pin OBD2 connector of the Jaltest ETM. On the module side there is a 4-pole Deutsch-type connector with a grey housing, a green contact holder, an orange-brown sealing ring and a locking bracket that keeps the plug in place.

With this connection, the Jaltest ETM takes over the role of the control unit and builds the communication with the modulator itself. This shows whether the component is actually faulty, or whether the fault lies in the wiring or the control unit. To do this, the ETM runs the full measurement of the modulator and an End of Line test. In addition to this cable, you need the ETM itself, with an ETM licence and a current CV or Modular software licence.

HIGHLIGHTS

✔Designed for Knorr-Bremse EBS modules except MAN, so you do not need to improvise with loose test probes.
✔The ETM takes over the role of the control unit, so you assess the component separately from the installation.
✔Avoids unnecessary dismantling. If the modulator proves to work, it does not need to be removed.
✔Enables the full measurement of the modulator and an End of Line test.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕Works exclusively with the Jaltest ETM; this cable is not intended for vehicle diagnostics via the Jaltest Link.
✕Requires an ETM licence in addition to a current CV or Modular software licence; other modules cannot be combined with the ETM.
✕The ETM does not work on Jaltest handhelds; you operate it from a PC or laptop.
✕The MDC04 is the same cable with a grey contact holder and coding A, and for EBS in MAN the MDC02 and MDC03 apply; a wrongly chosen cable does not physically fit the module.

Applications and functionality

Through this cable, the Jaltest ETM communicates directly with the component, without the vehicle's control unit. The cable connects to the modulator, not to the vehicle's diagnostic connector.

Components you can test

  • EBS module: Knorr-Bremse, except MAN.
  • Connection: Deutsch 4-pole, green holder.

What you can do

  • Isolated testing: Without the control unit.
  • Establish a fault: Whether the fault lies elsewhere.
  • Measure through: The modulator as a whole.
  • End of Line test: Confirm that it works correctly.

How to use it

  1. Start software: Open Jaltest on the PC or laptop.
  2. Connect ETM: Connect the OBD2 side to the ETM.
  3. Clear the connector: Disconnect the vehicle plug from the modulator.
  4. Connect: Plug the cable into the modulator.
  5. Test: Start the measurement or the End of Line test.

Compatible components and applications

The colour of the contact holder is decisive, not just the vehicle make. The MDC05 fits EBS modules of Knorr-Bremse except MAN with a green contact holder.

Knorr-Bremse except MAN:

  • EBS module: Deutsch connector with green contact holder.

Other connections:

  • MDC04: Same cable, grey contact holder with coding A.
  • MDC02 and MDC03: Knorr-Bremse EBS modules in MAN.

What you need in addition

  • Jaltest ETM: The test module itself. For the Jaltest Link V9, this is the ETM interface with reference 70001007; the complete ETM kit is 70001008.
  • ETM licence: Without that licence the ETM will not start. The annual renewal has reference 29701.
  • A current Jaltest software licence: A CV licence or a Modular licence. Other modules cannot be combined with the ETM.
  • Term: The ETM licence runs in line with the expiry date of your Jaltest software licence. If that licence has more than one year remaining, you only pay for the remaining period. If the Jaltest licence expires, the ETM will not work until it is renewed.
  • Power supply: The ETM is powered from the vehicle's batteries.
💡
Good to know: Check the contact holder in the Deutsch connector on the module. If it is green, the MDC05 is the correct cable; if it is grey with coding A, you need the MDC04.
