Overview
If you are looking for a one-stop shop for agriculture equipment, Claas will be one of them. The company manufactures agricultural equipment, from tractors to forage harvesters, tractors to combines, and more, which are widely used in farms in North America.
It is often a challenge for owners of Claas equipment to keep their fleet always in peak performance mode. However, with the Jaltest Claas diagnostic software, you can ensure that you get the most from your equipment around the year. Even though you have the Jaltest Claas combine diagnostic scanner or the Claas harvesting equipment scan tool, the focus of this post will be the diagnosis and fault code resolutions of Class tractors.
You can carry out cutting-edge diagnosis across the range of Claas agricultural equipment, especially the Arion Series, Axion Series, and Xerion Series. The Jaltest Claas diagnostic system is optimized for best-in-class fault code resolutions across top models of Claas tractors in North America, namely the Arion 400 / 500 / 600 Series, Axion 800 / 900 Series, and the Xerion 4000 / 4500 / 5000 Series.
The advantage of using the Jaltest Claas diagnostic scanner is that one tool can be used for optimized fault analysis across multiple models, thereby saving money on not having to purchase several diagnostic scanners.
Apart from the Claas diagnostic software, our Jaltest maintenance tool covers other critical machines construction equipment, agricultural equipment, material handling equipment, trucks, marine engines, and others.

The Jaltest Claas fault code reader offers full and deep coverage across all major and key systems and components of Claas agriculture equipment. The main modules supported by our software are the Transmission Control Unit (TCU), Armrest & Joystick Control, Hydraulic & Hitch Systems, Instrument Cluster, Air Conditioning Unit, and more.
Hence, you can analyze Claas armrest and joystick control fault codes, Class hydraulic fault codes, Claas hitch system error codes, and more. Our Claas diagnostic software is ideal for fault code reading and clearance, undertaking measurements of all operational data in real time, and checking for any malfunction in critical systems.
Moreover, you can also actuate components, set parameters, and calibrate systems to a setting that optimizes operational efficiencies in your specific working conditions. By changing factor settings, you customize your agriculture machinery to give the best performance in your specific terrain.

Jaltest Support for Claas Engines and Transmissions
The engines and the transmissions are two of the most vital components and systems of Claas agriculture equipment. Here too, our Jaltest Claas diagnostic tool is a leader in its niche because of the wide support provided. It provides an in-depth diagnosis of Claasmodels equipped with FPT (Fiat Powertrain), John Deere PowerTech, and Mercedes-Benz (Xerion Series).
For cutting-edge diagnostics, for instance, check out our Engine diagnostics for Mercedes engines. One of the critical fault clearance activities that can be carried out in the engine segment is forced regens for Claas tractor DPF filter cleaning.
This is required when soot accumulates in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and must be cleared to prevent the equipment from going into limp mode. The after-treatment solutions in the Jaltest software will bring your equipment back on the job.
The Jaltest software supports the most-used Claas transmissions namely the CMATIC CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) and the Hexashift & Quadrashift Powershift Transmissions.

Fault Code Analysis and Clearance By The Claas Diagnostic Tool
All Claas equipment including tractors have an onboard computer where any malfunction is displayed through fault codes, also known as Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). Whenever a fault code appears, connect our Jaltest Claas diagnostics to the onboard computer and you get the fault and how to clear it and set the problem right.
Clearing fault codes with the Jaltest Claas fault code reader is easy and effortless as the software guides you through all the resolutions. You can either take full system scans to periodically check for any minor issues that might blow up into major problems if left unattended.
The other option is to scan all systems by symptoms when a fault code arises. The software will guide you in service and fault resolutions that are no less than what is offered by service engineers at the dealer level. Moreover, you get real-time data on when the fault occurred as well as detailed wiring diagrams to know the precise location of the fault.
Here are some examples of fault codes of Claas equipment.
- E-5: Ground drive hydraulic temperature too high (CAB module)
- 1045: Fuel level sensor open circuit (ALL)
- 1051: No CAN communication with engine controller (ALL)
- 36: Battery low voltage (ALL)
- TMF 164: PTO shaft speed has not been detected within 3.6 seconds of being turned ON.

Extensive Diagnostic Support For Claas Agriculture Equipment
Our Jaltest Claas diagnostic interface and the Claas Diagnostic System (CDS) are advanced software that continuously monitors the health of your equipment. You can track the performance of your Claas systems and record, and visually display and customize the measurement view.
An optimized benefit is that you can record up to 90 minutes of data and playing it back helps you to know when a specific fault took place. Among the metrics that offer advanced technical data are torque specs, system specs, routings, layouts, calibrations, and more.
One of the reasons why the Jaltest Claas diagnostic software is ahead of others in the niche is its user-friendly attributes right from the installation of the tool to cutting-edge diagnostics. As distinct from other Claas diagnostic tools, there are no extensive configuration and setting up processes to go through. Once downloaded onto your software laptop, it is ready to start fault code reading and clearance.
We also offer three updates to the Claas diagnostic tool every year. This is to ensure that our software is in sync with all innovations implemented in Claas equipment over time.
