is intended to be used by a qualified service technician
familiar with Detroit Diesel electronically controlled (DDEC) diesel engines and to provide a
better understanding of the EGR system to improve the diagnosing of a Series 60

The Series 60 EGR system will be supported in the near future.
Prerequisites for effective diagnosis include the following topics:
Knowledge of both the engine and vehicle principles of operation.
Ability to perform and to understand service manual and troubleshooting manual
procedures.
Availability and training to use gages and diagnostic test equipment.
Familiarization of the computer software associated with DDC products.
An essential tool to properly diagnose and troubleshoot a DDEC IV or DDEC V Series 60

This tool will provide you all the help you will need as it contains proper troubleshooting
information for all products.

It is absolutely
critical
that you understand the EGR system to be qualified to offer any
type of proper diagnostics. Do not
waste time
trying to troubleshoot a DDC product,

you are qualified to perform a troubleshooting task and have spent more than one hour
on that task,
STOP
, and contact DDC Technical Assistance. Once you have discussed
your options with a technical support person, you can perform the required tests and
evaluations. Please keep in contact with your technical support person. This allows
you to stay on track.
