Communication Problems
If the ABS ECU does not respond to the RDU
™
tool’s request
for diagnostic trouble codes, the RDU
™
tool will illuminate
each red LED in a clockwise pattern. This pattern indicates
the loss of communication and will continue until the ABS
ECU responds and communication has been established.
Possible sources of communication problems are:
1. A problem with the J1587 link at the in-cab off-board
diagnostic connector (9 or 6 Pin).
2. The ECU does not support PID194.
3. No power is being supplied to the ECU and/or the
diagnostic connector.
4. The J1587 bus is overloaded with information and the
RDU can not arbitrate access.
5. A malfunctioning RDU
™
tool.
