NEXIQ Technologies announces the release of eTechnician, which now includes two PC-based software applications— eTechnician Heavy Duty Standard (HDS) and eTechnician Light and Medium Truck (LMT). Packaged together for the first time, these essential applications create a diagnostic package service technicians are sure to depend on to keep trucks on the road. In fact, service bay technicians provided input during the design phase of the eTechnician intuitive user interface. Their first-hand knowledge and experience was incorporated into the eTechnician design, making both applications easy to use, and easy to learn.

eTechnician LMT provides OEM proprietary diagnostic capability for engines, transmissions, and brakes on a wide range of light and medium duty trucks. And, it features hundreds of diagnostic tests, making it an important and valuable asset for service technicians. It also lets you easily switch between each of the elements of the system, saving both repair and vehicle down time. In addition, the application includes generic OBD II.

eTechnician HDS provides technicians with the ability to perform heavy duty diagnostics using both J1708 and J1939 communication protocols on a PC platform. It includes comprehensive coverage for heavy duty engines, transmissions, brakes, trailers, body controllers, instrument clusters, and emissions. Emission-related diagnostic capability for a wide range of light and medium-duty trucks is also available. And eTechnician HDS enables the technician to easily switch between each of the elements of the system.
