Communication Adapter and/or Cables
1. Make sure that the firmware and driver files are
the most current files that are available for the
type of communication adapter that is being used.
If the firmware and driver files do not match, the
communication adapter will not communicate with
the electronic service tool.
2. Disconnect the communication adapter and the
cables from the diagnostic connector. Reconnect
the communication adapter to the diagnostic
connector.
3. Verify that the correct cable is being used between
the communication adapter and the diagnostic
connector. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electronic
Service Tools".
4. If the laptop computer is using a Windows
operating system, restart the laptop computer in
order to eliminate the possibility of a conflict in
the software.
Electrical Power Supply to the Diagnostic
Connector
Verify that battery voltage is present between
terminals A and B of the diagnostic connector. If the
communication adapter is not receiving power, the
LED display on the communication adapter will not
be illuminated.
Electronic Service Tool and Related
Hardware
In order to eliminate the electronic service tool and
the related hardware as the cause of the fault,
connect the electronic service tool to a different
engine. If the same fault occurs on a different engine,
check the electronic service tool and the related
hardware in order to determine the cause of the fault.
Electrical Power Supply to the Electronic
Control Module (ECM)
Check power to the ECM. Refer to Systems
Operation, Testing and Adjusting, "Charging System
- Test".
Note: If the ECM is not receiving battery voltage, the
ECM will not communicate.
Data Link
Troubleshoot the data link for possible faults. Refer
to Troubleshooting, "Data Link Circuit - Test".
