When your Case IH Magnum tractor displays an HCU (Hitch Control Unit) fault code, it’s not just about reading an error message. To intervene effectively, you need to understand the context, access precise diagrams, and have reliable technical information. This is exactly what Jaltest INFO Web offers, going far beyond a simple code reader.
- A fault code is just the starting point
On a Case IH Magnum model with a Tier 4 Final / Stage IV engine and Full Powershift transmission, the HCU (Hitch Control Unit) controls the entire rear lift. An HCU fault code can indicate an out-of-range sensor, calibration issue, hydraulic problem, or electronic failure. With a standard diagnostic tool, you only get an alert. Jaltest, however, provides you with the why and how.
- Guided diagnostics to get straight to the point
As soon as the code is read, Jaltest displays:
- The full description of the error
- The associated symptoms on the lifting system
- The probable causes (position sensor, solenoid valve, power supply)
- Active tests to run to verify the concerned components
- The recommended step-by-step repair procedure
With Jaltest, you’re supported in a real diagnostic process, not just a code reading.
- Wiring diagrams and component location
In this type of fault, simply reading the code isn’t enough. You need to be able to trace electrical signals, identify specific connectors, check cable continuity, or test a solenoid valve. Jaltest provides interactive diagrams of the HCU system, with the exact location of components on the vehicle, and manufacturer reference values for each measurement.
A technical database dedicated to agricultural machinery
Jaltest AGV (Agricultural Vehicles) covers all systems of modern agricultural machines, including:
- The engine (with Tier 4 / Stage IV emission standards)
- The transmission (Full Powershift, CVT, etc.)
- The hydraulic system (lifting, distributors, power take-off)
- The embedded electronics (sensors, ECUs, dashboards)
The technical database is continuously updated, providing access to precise repair instructions, maintenance schedules, and calibration values specific to each model, such as the Case IH Magnum.
