Decades ago, like the 1990s automobile industry, the off-highway industry was purely recognized as a mechanical entity. In the mechanical system, accuracy and troubleshooting of faults were significant concerns. Additionally, the continuous stringent emission norms by the government call for the adaptation of the aftertreatment and DeNOx led to more complexity and challenges. To meet the government emission regulation and product performance, thorough functionality testing of manufactured units was crucial. For this purpose, EOL/diagnostics testers are developed. Diagnostic protocol CAN establish the connection between ECU and tester due to its robustness and data handling capabilities. This paper aims to develop and test the end-of-line (EOL) tester for off-highway diesel engines. The communication between the tester and ECU will be over UDSonCAN, conforming to standard ISO14229.
