LAUNCH Trailer 16+7+7 Connectors: Connect and Diagnose WABCO

 The LAUNCH X431 Truck (HD) Diagnostic Tool supports diagnosing truck trailers. It’s easy to perform truck trailer diagnostics using only the LAUNCH Trailer 16+7+7 Connectors and a 24V CAN Adapter Expansion Module. Below, we’ll explain how to connect and diagnose your truck trailer (Using LAUNCH X431 PAD V ELITE).

Part 1. Connecting the LAUNCH adapter and the truck trailer

Connect the LAUNCH Trailer 16+7+7 Connectors and the 24V CAN Adapter Expansion Module.

This time, we used the LAUNCH X431 PAD V ELITE to read error codes and data streams in WABCO EBS. We’ve also mentioned before that SmartLink can be used as a direct-connect device for J2534, supporting diagnostics using the original manufacturer’s software. The connection method is the same as in Part 1 of this article.
