As a proud member of TMC and supporter of RP 179 (Liftgate Charging and Pump Motor Diagnostic and Maintenance Guidelines), Auto Meter is excited to announce the release of a Liftgate System Test that is performed using the BCT-468 load based electrical system diagnostic tool.
Technicians can now use the BCT-468 to test and troubleshoot liftgate charging and motor circuits. With user guided screens (including hook-up diagrams), technicians can accurately troubleshoot concerns and make the necessary repair to ensure optimal operation.
Preventative maintenance of liftgate circuits is a key piece with helping to minimize trailer downtime. Being able to quickly identify and resolve a potential issue to avoid a liftgate system breakdown or loss of performance is critical to fleet maintenance operations.
With AMPNET, Auto Meter’s optional cloud-based data reporting software, all testing results from the BCT-468 are viewable in real time and stored for future review and/or predictive maintenance initiatives.
Provides total circuit voltage drop pass / fail result at typical real world circuit current levels. Also provides both positive and negative circuit voltage drops so the technician now where to start further troubleshooting and repair.
