Top 10 Toyota Tundra Warning Lights You Shouldn’t Ignore

Before going into the intricacies of the Jaltest Tractor diagnostic tool and its functioning, let us first understand what a typical tractor scan tool is.

For anyone in the agriculture or construction business, a tractor that is out of action is wasting money for every minute of downtime. Any malfunction has to be immediately diagnosed and rectified to get the tractor back on the job at the earliest. In traditional scenarios, it involved an elaborate process of calling service engineers who would diagnose the issue and carry out the required fixes. This would take days at conservative estimates.

All that has changed now with the advent of onboard computers and tractor diagnostic scanners. All modern equipment and vehicles including tractors are today armed with an onboard computer with the display unit usually tucked away below the dashboard on the driver’s side.

When any issue with the tractor arises a fault code in alpha-numeric format flashes on the display screen, indicating what the problem is. Now, instead of the service engineers, the Jaltest tractor diagnostics tool comes into the picture. Simply connect your software laptop to the onboard computer and you get details and interpretations of the fault codes, what the issue is all about, and the rectification action to be taken.

You therefore save a lot of money and time when you use the tractor diagnostic tool. You do not have to spend on paying for service engineers as the fault clearance is done on your premises only. Further, you save time and can quickly get your tractor back where it is needed the most, the farms or construction projects.

Full System Scans Vs. Scans By Symptoms

Jaltest tractor diagnostics offers several options for tractor maintenance. Typically, owners prefer to have a periodical routine for full system scans that include all key components and systems such as the engines, transmissions, brakes, hitch, and more.

In this activity, all systems are scanned for any malfunction or temporary fault codes that might be minor but have the possibility of becoming full-blown problems if left unattended.

Generally, the fault codes that crop up in routine full system scans are temporary and go away within a few driving cycles. However, care must be taken when this preventive maintenance is not enough, and more in-depth action needs to be taken. This is where you must initiate scans by symptoms for more permanent fault codes.

In this case, the tractor diagnostic will guide you on the particulars of the fault codes and the action to be taken, specific to that symptom only. This covers all components and symptoms and your tractor will soon be back on the job again.

It is always advisable to carry out full system fault prevention and identification scans at regular intervals so that no minor fault not generally detected in driving cycles remains unresolved for long. 

Force Regens With The Jaltest Tractor Diagnostic Tool

A very critical and important activity that is performed with the tractor scan tool is force regens, specifically for diesel-powered tractors only. All diesel engines that have a stop-go-stop routine tend to accumulate soot in the diesel particulate filters. When passive regens are unable to control the accumulation, the tractor engine will seize up and the machine will go into limp mode.

It is here that the tractor diagnostic software performs forced regens to clear the accumulated soot in the diesel particulate filter. The process is as follows. The engine is switched on and runs for around 40 minutes at a rev that is automatically calculated by the Jaltest scan tool. At this rev, the temperature of the emission gasses rises sufficiently to burn the accumulated soot off.

This phenomenon is typically not seen in diesel engines that run constantly over long distances.  

Examples of Tractor Fault Codes

Here are some tractor fault codes specific to New Holland and Case IH tractors. Please note that these fault codes are not standardized across makes and models of tractors.

From trucks and busses to construction equipment that includes motor graders, wheel loaders, and excavators, to marine and industrial engines, Volvo has it all. If you have a fleet of them, you will require the Jaltest Volvo diagnostic software to keep them in peak performance mode.

In this post, we will go through the intricacies and functioning of the Volvo scan tool and how to use this very optimized maintenance tool. We will also largely focus on Volvo construction equipment as including all Volvo products will make the article a bit cumbersome.

Volvo Construction Equipment and the Volvo Diagnostic Scan Tool

When it comes to construction equipment, Volvi is the leader in this pack, offering world-class solutions. Apart from the company’s focus on sustainable products, their products deliver highly optimized power and performance. Most importantly, Volvo has a wide range of service stations across the globe and hence your equipment will never be stranded on downtime.

However, when you have a fleet of Volvo construction equipment and use the Jaltest Volvo construction equipment diagnostic software, you can easily check for any faults and rectify them before they become a major problem. This will keep your Volvo equipment always on the job and avoid prolonged malfunctions or breakdowns.

The main advantage is that by using the Jaltest Volvo diagnostic software, you are always one step ahead on the health of your Volvo construction equipment.

The Functioning of The Volvo Diagnostic Scanner

In this section, we will examine the functioning of the Volvo scan tool.

Every modern vehicle or construction equipment come with a fault self-diagnosis system via an onboard computer. Whenever a malfunction occurs in the equipment that affects the running status of the machinery, a fault code warning message will flash on the display screen located below the dashboard on the driver’s side. This is where the Jaltest Volvo diagnostic software comes into the picture.

On a fault code warning, you need to connect this maintenance tool to the onboard computer and check where the fault lies. Once this is done, and our software laptop identifies the issue, it will guide you through the rectification solutions so that the fault is cleared and your equipment is back on the job.

For example, suppose the fault code is P206A02 typical of a Volvo L60H loader. Our Volvo diagnostic tool will inform you that it is an issue with the aftertreatment fuel pressure sensor. This sensor is part of the emissions control system and monitors the fuel pressure after it has passed through the aftertreatment system.

The software will then handhold you through getting the rectification done on the premises without having to fall back on visits to the service center. All performance metrics are available on the laptop screen of the Volvo diagnostic software staring from fault rectification solutions to guides on how to change components if needed. 

There are two ways to get the maximum out of your Volvo construction equipment diagnostic software and our intuitive and user-friendly dashboard will show you how.

In the first instance, you can carry out what can be termed preventive maintenance to ensure that the equipment does not go to the fault warning stage. Here, Jaltest software helps you carry out periodical full system scans to make sure that all systems and components are working as they should. Any minor fault is therefore identified at this stage and rectified before they become a full-blown issue.

These cases are generally temporary Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and are resolved over a few driving cycles or slight tweaking from the Volvo scan tool.

The other instance is scanning by symptoms. Once an error in the system is noticed by our software, it goes into rectification mode and what to do to clear the fault code. What helps is that your work is helped by live technical and maintenance data as well as wiring diagrams that show where the fault lies precisely and if any component in the software needs to be changed.

Hence, the Jaltest Volvo diagnostic software not only sets right and clears fault codes but also keeps your equipment in top performance condition through preventive maintenance.

Troubleshooting Faults With The Volvo Tech Tool Diagnostic Software

The Volvo Premium Tech Tool (PTT) is a diagnostic application designed for testing, calibrating, and programming engine parameters. The advantage here is that it makes diagnostics of engine faults fast and accurate, thereby making for equally quick resolutions.

Now let us get into how to resolve issues with your Volvo construction equipment with the Jaltest Volvo diagnostic software. The basic process is the same for all Volvo construction equipment though the fault codes and what they represent varies between different types of equipment.

• First, ensure that the Volvo scan tool is plugged into the onboard computer of your Volvo construction equipment and turn the ignition on. You do not have to run the engine. Our tool will now show the type of malfunction of your equipment.
• Go to the main menu on the Jaltest software and give the “Clear Codes” option from the main menu.
• At this stage, the Volvo diagnostic scanner will start checking any issues and initiate rectification procedures. You will receive guidance during the whole process with technical and maintenance data in real-time as well as through wiring diagrams. Some special instructions might also be issued by the software which you must follow. When asked by the Volvo diagnostic tool whether you want to clear the fault codes, tap “yes.”
• At this juncture, you will be handheld through a series of rectification actions and a wide range of prompts to arrive at the right solution. You will also be asked to turn the engine on and off. You will now receive either a “Success” or a fault not cleared message in which case other actions must be explored.  

In most cases though, this is enough to set your construction equipment right without calling in certified engineers.

Force Regens and The Volvo Diagnostic Scan Tool

Apart from a few materials handling equipment like tractors and a few construction equipment, almost all Volvo heavy-duty products are powered by diesel engines. It is here that force regens come up.

Our Volvo diagnostic scanner carries out a wide range of activities ranging from simple ones such as tracing a loose wire to more complex ones such as force regens. It is common for soot to buildup in the diesel particulate filter of diesel-powered vehicles.

Generally, passive regens can clear this accumulation but when the condition becomes severe, the engine will seize up and your Volvo construction equipment will go into limp mode. This will lead to downtime and affect your project adversely.

When you connect your Volvo diagnostic software to the onboard computer and a fault code related to engine issues shows up, our tool will diagnose whether it is related to soot accumulation in the DPF. It will then start rectification solutions based on the severity of the issue ranging from High to Very High.

Generally, clearing faults that require force regens need the engine to be run continuously for 40 minutes at a rev that will be decided by the software. The increased temperature of the exhaust gasses burns away the soot in the DPF. Our software will come in very handy in construction equipment as this problem is typically faced by vehicles and equipment that function in a stop-go-stop manner and not run long distances at a time.

Comprehensive Information With The Volvo Diagnostic Scanner

The Jaltest Volvo diagnostic tool offers a whole lot of detailed information that assists you in undertaking multiple corrective actions regardless of the type and model of construction equipment and engine.

Preventive vs. Maintenance Options With The Case IH Diagnostic Software

The Jaltest Case equipment diagnostic software offers you two options to keep your equipment always in working condition without downtime. One is preventive scans where any minor issue is detected at the root and quickly solved before it can become a full-blown problem. The other is the maintenance action where cans are done by specific systems of malfunction and action is taken as per the fault.

Preventive scans or periodical full system scans are very necessary to keep your equipment always running without downtime. When you can identify minor faults that are temporary and will go away after a few driving cycles in advance, you can focus on those areas in the future and thwart the possibility of them coming back time and again. Further, it is a big relief to also know that there is nothing wrong with your equipment through full system scans.

The other part of the Case equipment diagnostic software is the maintenance option where scans are carried out by specific symptoms and resolutions initiated to rectify the faults. Our software will handhold you through cutting-edge solutions that will get your equipment running again at the earliest. What helps is that you get live maintenance and technical data as well as detailed wiring diagrams to know the precise location of the fault.

Force Regens

One of the most critical activities that is carried out with the Case IH diagnostic software is forced regen which is a part of the Case IH engine fault code and is specific to diesel engines only.

Forced regen is necessary when soot builds up in the diesel particulate filter, leading to the engine seizing up and the equipment going into limp mode in extreme cases. This action is required when passive regens cannot clear the soot accumulation in the DPF. When this happens, the health of the engine will be reflected as a fault code in our software which will then prompt you to take the required action, ranging from High to Very High to clear the soot.

Forced regens can be carried out on all models of Case IH agriculture equipment such as the Case Steiger, Case Magnum 420, Case IH axial flow 9250/7150, Case Puma, and more. This fault typically occurs when any vehicle or equipment operates on a stop-go-stop mode as in agriculture equipment instead of continuously running as in long-distance busses.

Forced regens is done by running the engine for around 40 minutes at a specific rev which will be guided by our Case IH scan tool. This raises the temperature of the exhaust gasses and the soot buildup is burned away. Even though it is a complex process and requires following several metrics, Jaltest diagnostic software handles the process with great ease.

Force Regens With The Jaltest Toyota Forklift Diagnostic Software

Even though Toyota forklifts are powered by diesel, electric, and LPG, the most common propulsion system is diesel engines. One issue that keeps cropping up with the diesel engines is soot buildup in the diesel particulate filter. Initially, it might not be a big bother but when it becomes severe, the engine might seize up and the equipment will go into limp mode.

When this happens and the corresponding fault code is displayed on the Toyota forklift diagnostic tool, the only way to get the forklift back on its tracks is by performing forced regens. Jaltest software will actively guide you through the process.

Forced regens become necessary when passive regens are not enough to clear the diesel particulate filter. Our maintenance tool has several notches for undertaking forced regens, ranging from High to Very High depending on the extent of soot accumulation in the filter. When doing forced regens, the engine of the forklift being freed up is run on for 40 minutes at a stretch at an engine rev shown by our software.

During this process, the rise in temperature of the exhaust gasses burns away the soot and clears the diesel particulate filter. This condition occurs in diesel engines only and when the vehicle functions in a stop-go-stop condition. Engines that run for long stretches at a time like inter-city busses do not face this problem.

Forced regen is among the most complex activities carried out on diesel engines and is done seamlessly and effortlessly by the Jaltest Toyota forklift diagnostic tool. After you are through with the force regen task, our software provides live data on the condition of the diesel particulate filter and the ACR catalytic converter. You can also modify the injector code in the ECM when an injector is replaced or installed.

Toyota Forklift Fault Codes and Their Resolutions

Toyota forklifts are known for their reliability and sturdiness but faults do occur in the best of machinery. When this happens, our Toyota forklift diagnostic software identifies and interprets the fault code, and what the problem is about and simultaneously offers cutting-edge solutions to get your equipment back on the job at the earliest.

A fault code, also known as a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is typically an alpha-numeric figure that corresponds to a malfunction with the equipment and shows up on the display panel of the ECM. With this fault code, you can pinpoint the precise problem and take the necessary corrective action.

Now that you know what fault codes are, how do you resolve them? While there are no standardized solutions for troubleshooting different systems and components, the following procedure is followed to clear fault codes in Toyota forklifts.      

Find the OBD2 port of the Toyota forklift. It is located under the dashboard in the operator’s footwell. Plug in our Toyota forklift diagnostic tool to the onboard diagnostic port and turn on the ignition. It is not necessary to run the engine at this stage. Now click on “Connect in our software and wait for a few minutes for the Jaltest Toyota forklift diagnostic to read the full system of your forklift.

Go to the complete Toyota forklift fault code list in our maintenance tool and open the fault code that is being displayed. The full description of the fault code is given in our Toyota forklift diagnostic software.
