As VOSA increases roadside checks – The ISOCheck is the device to check Truck & Trailer ABS Or EBS Braking Systems

June 25th, 2009 Comments off

As VOSA increases it’s road side checks of commercial vehicles. Operators cannot ignore ABS warnings if they want to avoid a PG9.

 

The ISOCheck Test Lead quickly confirms the correct information is being supplied from the unit to the trailer and from the trailer to the unit.

 

 

A double decker trailer with a defective EBS system is a major hazard; a defective system would vastly increase the chances of roll over or jack-knifes.

EBS/ABS Truck & Trailer Fault Finding

April 12th, 2009 Comments off

Conventional wisdom has it that problems with EBS / ABS systems fitted to trucks, trailers and buses, are best diagnosed via the vehicle’s Electronic Control Unit (also known as the ECU). However, since 80% of all EBS / ABS problems are sensor related*, by connecting to the sensor socket on each wheel rather than the ECU, you are, in effect, taking the quickest and most direct route, by going straight to the heart of the problem.

Designed with ease of use in mind the Sensor Master takes minutes to set-up, and, once connected, the Sensor Master undertakes a complete test cycle of the six most common causes of EBS / ABS faults,  in just 15 seconds – a fraction of the time it would take to perform the same tests manually.
