Why are Diagnostics not enabled for pre-2007 vehicle?
Diagnostics are available for Mack and Volvo 2007 and newer emissions
vehicles.
Look in service information for help with pre-2007 Mack and Volvo
vehicles.
Can I use Tech Tool 2 without Internet connection?
Yes, you can. There will be some manual selections to make.
How can I read the Diagnostic Trouble Codes on pre 2007 vehicles?
Go to test and then Function Group 1. You can read and clear DTCs here on
pre-
2007 vehicles.
Can Tech Tool 2 be used to program a customer’s vehicle at a location
without
network access?
Yes, by using the Manage Software function found under Tech Tool menu in
the
top left of the front page, the software can be downloaded with an internet
connection and then TT2 can be used offline (no internet connection) to
program
ECUs for the vehicle in question.
Note: Manage Software New is for the OBD2013 and newer vehicles.
As a small fleet we would like to be able to perform diagnostics on
our own
trucks. What tools do you recommend that we get?
There are a large variety of tools available. Please consult with your Mack or
Volvo fleet manager or local dealer for help.
Does Tech Tool 2 have a fuel trip data report?
Yes, under Test you can find the vehicle fuel data report. You can perform a
print
function from this operation. Note that this data is not saved to the Product
History
and must be printed to paper, or to a file (ex. XPS file). Mack Vehicle
Life and Trip
report is under Function Group 1. Volvo Fuel Consumption Data
is under Function
Group 20. Both reports are identical.
What do the red and green icons in the Control Unit Data Mismatch
window
mean?
These icons tell you the details of the ECU, Software and Hardware, as
compared
to the database in central systems. A green icon indicates that the
data is good; a
red icon requires attention from the technician to correct.
