Have you ever faced a dashboard full of red warning lights and wondered: “Where do I even start?” For technicians working on Volvo, Scania, or MAN trucks, this situation is all too familiar.
In 2025, trucks are smarter than ever, equipped with countless sensors and electronic systems. To avoid mistakes and save valuable time, a reliable diagnostic solution is essential. Jaltest INFO Web allows you to quickly read, understand, and resolve fault codes while following a precise, illustrated repair guide.
Fault codes act like the truck’s health record: some problems are urgent, others minor. Depending on the code, diagnostics can take as little as 15 minutes for a simple sensor issue—or 3–4 hours for more complex systems like ADAS or emissions. The level of difficulty varies and may require expertise in mechanics, electronics, and hydraulics.
