Ditch Witch Diagnostic Scan Tool
Ditch Witch is a reputed American brand and a trade name of Charles Machine Works. It is headquartered in Perry, Oklahoma, and since 2019, has been a subsidiary of The Toro Company. The company manufactures underground utility construction equipment.
Apart from its famous trenchers, other product categories include horizontal directional drilling systems, drill pipe, downhole tools, vacuum excavation systems, fluid management systems, and mini skid steers. Ditch Witch is a leader in the construction of subterranean structures and systems, for which it is aptly called “The Underground Authority”.
If you own Ditch Witch construction equipment or have a service center for them, you need the Jaltest Ditch Witch diagnostic scanner to ensure their peak performance without downtime. Use the scanner to troubleshoot by symptoms in case a fault code pops up, or carry out periodic full-system scans to resolve any minor issues before they become major problems.
Our Jaltest Ditch Witch diagnostic tool can perform a range of advanced and cutting-edge functions that help to keep the Ditch Witch equipment on the job. These include:
- Comprehensive Diagnostics across engine, hydraulic, brake, and electrical systems
- SMART Guides to streamline troubleshooting with step-by-step guidance
- Advanced Features for ECU cloning, calibration, and parameter editing, and
- Extensive Support via optional add-ons for systems like brake controls and remote assistance
These features of the Ditch Witch fault code scan tool always ensure high-level diagnostics and dealer-level service.
Apart from the Ditch Witch diagnostic scanner, our Jaltest maintenance software covers other critical machines like construction equipment, agricultural equipment, material handling equipment, trucks, marine engines, and others.

Diagnostic Capabilities and Body Modules Covered
The Jaltest Ditch Witch construction equipment diagnostic software has advanced and cutting-edge capabilities that get your equipment back on the job without delay. Fault code reading and resolutions are done on-premises only, without any time spent waiting for service engineers.
You can carry out deep diagnostics and critical systems repairs that include:
- Automatic detection of engine and system configurations
- Fault code reading and clearing
- Live data streaming and system measurements
- Component actuation testing (e.g., ABS, suspension, hydraulic systems)
- ECU information access (serial numbers, software versions, manufacturer data)
- Parameter cloning and ECU reprogramming capability
- Calibration routines for systems like suspension
- Maintenance counter resets
- Smart-guided troubleshooting (SMART Guides)
- Real-time technical data and wiring diagrams
These actions are wide-ranging and compatible with the main body modules, such as the engine, transmission, hydraulic system, electrical system, and controls and instrumentation.
Multi-level Diagnostics for Engines and Transmissions
With engines and transmissions forming the core of Ditch Witch, our Jaltest diagnostic software is more than up to the mark. The most common models covered are as follows:
Engines :
- Cummins QSB4.5
- Cummins QSB6.7
- Deutz TCD 3.6 L4
- Deutz TCD 4.1 L4
Further, our Jaltest Ditch Witch engine scanner software offers diagnostic support for engines using the Cummins ECU with SAE J1939 / J1708 protocols.
Among the most complex actions effortlessly carried out by the Ditch Witch Cummins/Deutz scan tool is forced regens, essential to clear the Diesel Particulate Filter in diesel engines of accumulated soot. In severe cases, if left unattended, the equipment might go into limp mode, necessitating downtime.
Transmissions :
The most common transmission model supported by the Jaltest software is the hydrostatic transmission. The Jaltest Ditch Witch hydrostatic transmission fault code reader supports calibration and diagnostics for integrated electronic systems, including suspension controls, hydraulic drivetrain components, brake modules, and active system adjustment and maintenance reset functionality.
Cutting-Edge Functions of Jaltest Ditch Witch Diagnostic Software
The Jaltest Ditch Witch diagnostic software has advanced functions that are good for all common models of heavy and compact equipment. Our user-friendly software guides you through various fault code resolutions.
Simply connect the Jaltest scan tool laptop to the onboard computer of the Ditch Witch equipment whenever a fault code pops up on the display panel. Our software takes over, analyses and interprets the fault code, and offers solutions for quick repairs. What helps is the detailed wiring diagrams that help find the location of the fault code for overall fault clearance.
Our software is very user-friendly and a cut above others in this niche. Unlike our competitors, there are no elaborate configuration and setup procedures; simply download the software on the Jaltest laptop and you are ready for optimized diagnostics and fault clearance.
Finally, we offer three updates to our software every year. It is to keep in sync with any technological innovations that might be introduced to Ditch Witch equipment.
