The Jaltest MDC03 is the test cable between the grey 4-pin connector (2x2) of the Knorr-Bremse modulator in MAN vehicles and the 16-pin OBD2 port of the Jaltest ETM. You connect it directly to the modulator, not to the vehicle's diagnostic port.

With this connection, the Jaltest ETM takes over the role of the control unit and establishes the communication with the modulator itself. This allows you to establish whether the component is actually faulty, or whether the fault lies in the wiring or the control unit. To do so, the ETM carries out a 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 valid CV or Modular software licence.

HIGHLIGHTS

✔Connects directly to the Knorr-Bremse EBS modulator in MAN, so you do not need to improvise with loose test probes.
✔The ETM takes over the role of the control unit, allowing you to assess the component separately from the installation.
✔Avoids unnecessary removal. If the modulator proves to be working, it does not need to come off.
✔Enables a 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 connector on this cable is grey, whereas that of the MDC02 is green; for Knorr-Bremse EBS modules outside MAN, use the MDC04 or MDC05.

Applications and functions

Via this cable, the Jaltest ETM communicates directly with the component, without the intervention of the vehicle's control unit. The cable connects to the modulator, not to the vehicle's diagnostic port.

Components you can test

  • EBS modulator: Knorr-Bremse in MAN.
  • Connection: Grey 4-pin connector, 2x2.

What you can do

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

How to use it

  1. Start the software: Open Jaltest on the PC or laptop.
  2. Connect the ETM: Connect the OBD2 end 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 connector on the modulator is decisive, not just the vehicle brand. The MDC03 fits the EBS modulator of Knorr-Bremse in MAN vehicles with the grey 4-pin connector.

Knorr-Bremse in MAN:

  • EBS modulator: Grey 4-pin connector (2x2).

Other connections:

  • MDC02: Green connector, EBS in MAN.
  • MDC04 and MDC05: Knorr-Bremse EBS modules outside MAN.

What you need

  • 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: The ETM does not start without this licence. The annual renewal has reference 29701.
  • An active Jaltest Software Activation: A CV Activation or a Modular Activation. Other modules cannot be combined with the ETM.
  • Duration: The ETM licence runs in line with the expiry date of your Jaltest software licence. If that runs for longer than one year, you only pay for the remaining period. If the Jaltest licence expires, the ETM will no longer work until it is renewed.
  • Power supply: The ETM is powered from the vehicle's batteries.
💡
Good to know: The MDC02 and the MDC03 both belong to the Knorr-Bremse modulator in MAN and differ in connector colour. Hold the connector on the modulator next to the photo and choose by colour. Grey is the MDC03, green the MDC02.
