Transmission Control: Automated manual transmissions (e.g., Mercedes PowerShift G 210, G 230, G 240, G 280) and traditional automatic transmissions, covering gear selection, clutch actuation, torque converter lock-up, and diagnostic codes. Brake System: Electronic stability control (ESP), ABS, ASR, EBS (Electronic Braking System), including wheel speed sensors, brake pressure modulators, and diagnostic codes related to braking performance and safety. Chassis Systems: Air suspension (APS), steering systems (e.g., LGS - Lane Guidance System), chassis control modules, and diagnostic codes for vehicle dynamics and ride comfort. Body And Comfort: Central gateway modules, instrument cluster, climate control, lighting systems (including adaptive headlights), door modules, and central locking. Information And Communication: Infotainment systems, telematics (e.g., FleetBoard), navigation systems, and communication modules. Instrumentation: Instrument cluster, warning lamps, diagnostic interface (OBD-II/J1939) communication errors. Tire Pressure Monitoring: Diagnostic fault codes pertaining to tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) and associated sensors and ECUs. Lighting Systems: Fault codes for headlamps, taillamps, turn signals, interior lighting, and control modules managing these functions, including adaptive and cornering light features. Air Conditioning System: Diagnostic codes for the climate control unit, sensors, actuators, and fans within the HVAC system. Procedures Included Diagnostic Troubleshooting: Provides the meaning and potential causes for each listed fault code, enabling technicians to identify issues quickly. Fault Code Interpretation: Detailed explanation of code structure and classification (e.g., active, pending, historic faults). Component Identification: Links fault codes to specific ECUs and the sensors/actuators they monitor. Fault Code Lookup: Primary function: to provide a direct lookup of specific fault codes generated by the vehicle's ECUs. Technical Depth Diagnostic Level: Advanced. Designed for professional technicians with access to diagnostic scan tools (e.g., Mercedes-Benz XENTRY, STAR Diagnosis) to retrieve and interpret these codes. Repair Guidance Implied: While not a full repair manual, it's the crucial first step in diagnosis, guiding technicians towards the correct repair procedures. Diagnostic Tool Interface: Essential companion to Mercedes-Benz diagnostic hardware and software (XENTRY/DAS), providing the contextual meaning behind the codes displayed by these tools. 📊 Manual Specifications File Format Digital Format: PDF. Likely optimized for digital viewing, potentially with hyperlinking for easier navigation between sections or codes. Searchability: PDF format typically allows for full-text searching, enabling users to quickly find specific fault codes or system descriptions. Print Quality Scalability: High. PDF format allows for clear printing at any standard resolution, ensuring legibility of diagnostic codes and descriptions. Resolution Quality: High resolution for clear display of technical information and code descriptions, suitable for professional use. Binding Type Delivery Method: Digital download (zip compressed PDF). No physical binding applies. Paper Type Print Recommendation: Recommended for printing on standard A4 or letter-sized paper for use in workshop environments. Searchable text functionality is highly probable. ⚙️ Engine Specifications Primary Engine Engine Families Covered: Includes diagnostic codes for various Daimler truck engine series: OM904LA, OM906LA (Atego), OM457LA, OM501LA, OM502LA (Actros, Axor), OM934, OM936 (Atego, Axor), OM470, OM471 (Actros).
