Detroit Diesel Corp. announced the launch of new advanced diagnostics features for its Detroit Diesel Diagnostic Link (DDDL) available for heavy-duty engines and compatible with the company’s full line of engines.
The company said the DDDL’s enhanced features provide service technicians an interactive tool by not just reading diagnostic data, but interpreting it and automatically determining next steps. A sophisticated troubleshooting tree provides step-by-step diagnostics to help technicians quickly and easily address issues.
Additional features include encrypted videos and animation clips that further aid in diagnoses. On-screen graphics also serve as a teaching tool for technicians. Technicians can also use the DDDL to report back to Detroit Diesel’s support center, which helps Detroit Diesel engineers monitor and evaluate repairs being made, enhancing continuous engine and technology improvements, the company said.
