FAQs
Which vehicles use J1939 connectors?
J1939 connectors are primarily used in heavy-duty vehicles, such as trucks, buses, agricultural machinery, construction equipment, and military vehicles. These connectors support communication between various electronic control units (ECUs) in these vehicles, enabling functions like engine diagnostics, transmission control, and braking systems.
They are ideal for any vehicle that requires a robust, standardized communication protocol to manage multiple systems, monitor performance, and ensure efficient operations in harsh, demanding environments.
How do I test my J1939 connector?
To test resistance, set your multimeter to ohms and apply it between the CAN High (CAN_H) and CAN Low (CAN_L) pins. A good reading is between 54 and 66 ohms.
To test voltage, test the CAN_H and CAN_L pins separately by applying the test lead to the Ground pin and either CAN-H or CAN_L. For CAN_H, the reading should be 2.5-3.0V. For CAN_L, the reading should be 2.5-1.5V. Other readings indicate an error.
Next use a heavy-duty diagnostics tool to check for any error codes or faults in the communication network.
How are J1939 and NMEA different?
J1939 and NMEA are both communication protocols but they’re used in different industries and have distinct message structures and standards. J1939 is primarily used in heavy-duty vehicles for vehicle diagnostics and control, leveraging a Controller Area Network (CAN) system.
NMEA (National Marine Electronics Association) protocols, like NMEA 2000, are used in marine environments for navigation and communication between marine electronic devices.
