Electronic Toolbox

Anti-lock braking systems have brought a raft of diagnostic challenges–and some very good high-tech solutions. ABS developer Meritor WABCO has released version 5.0 of its TOOLBOX software, a Microsoft Windows-based program that tells technicians key information during ABS diagnosis.

TOOLBOX 5.0 displays both active and stored system faults, as well as the appropriate repair instructions, and activates system components to verify their integrity, proper operation, and installation wiring. It works with hydraulic power brake systems with integrated ABS (HPB) as well as electronic leveling modules (ELM) for tractors and trailers. One important improvement in Version 5.0 is the ability to download future revisions online.

TOOLBOX is distributed by SPX Service Solutions. For information, call 1-800/328-6657 or visit www.meritorwabco.com.
