The Jaltest JDC205A is the diagnostic cable for the 11-pin OBD1 connector on Renault Trucks; it converts that connection to the 16-pin OBD2 port of your Jaltest diagnostic device. On the vehicle side, the 11-pin connector is located in the cab, while on the interface side you'll find the 16-pin OBD2 plug for your Jaltest diagnostic cable. The Magnum, Premium, Kerax and Midlum models without DXi engines all use the same connector.
Using this adapter cable, your diagnostic device connects to the vehicle network and gives you access to the engine control units DCI Euro 2 / DCI Euro 3 and ITC, the central control module VECU Euro 2 / VECU Euro 3, the transmissions AS Tronic, TBV and WTEC III Allison, the braking and suspension systems EBS 2.1/2.2, the ABS variants and ECAS air suspension, plus the ZF Intarder, the instrument cluster INS Euro 3, the maintenance system Diagmax and the body module BBM. Which of these are present depends on the model, engine and year of manufacture. From Euro IV (October 2005) onwards and with the introduction of DXi engines, Renault switched to the 16-pin OBD2 connector: if your truck is Euro 4 or newer, you won't need this cable. This cable falls under Jaltest CV (commercial vehicles).
