Diesel Laptops releases TruckFaultCodes app

Feb. 27, 2018
This free app allows users to search by manufacturer, model and code number. Each diagnostic code offers a list of probable causes that helps users isolate and repair issues with the vehicle.

Diesel Laptops, a leading distributor for commercial truck diesel diagnostic software and hardware, launched a free app for diagnostic trouble codes. This is in addition to their website version, TruckFaultCodes.com, which was created in 2017 and is the industry’s largest diagnostic code database on the market, according to the company.

This app allows users to search by manufacturer, model and code number. Each diagnostic code will offer as much information as possible on the components related to that diagnostic code, along with a list of probable causes so that users can isolate and repair the vehicle.

Tyler Robertson, owner and CEO of Diesel Laptops, said, “Previously, customers had to rely on Internet searches or expensive websites and repair manuals to obtain troubleshooting information for diagnostic trouble codes. We are excited to put this information into the customer’s hands through today’s modern world of mobile applications.”

This is the only app on the market that is completely geared towards the commercial truck industry and it is the most comprehensive library you will find, the company said. There are over 40,000 known diagnostic codes for commercial trucks and this is growing every year. For commercial truck diesel engines, every single major manufacturer is covered.  This includes CAT, Cummins, Detroit, Mack, Volvo, International, HINO, Isuzu, MBE, PACCAR, Ford, Sprinter, GM and many more.

All electronic transmissions that are used in the commercial truck industry are also included. The list includes Allison, Detroit, Eaton, Volvo IShift and Mack mDrive. The company said it  also included repair information for all known cab controllers (Such as Freightliner, International, Kenworth, Peterbilt, Mack and Volvo), ABS systems (Wabco, Bendix) and other sub systems as well.

Diesel Laptops offers this application completely free and there is no credit card or bank information required to create an account.  Setup and installation is quick and easy, and is easily searchable in the Google Play or Apple iTunes store for “Truck Fault Codes”.
