Installing the Accessory Cable

The accessory cable is a 45-pin cable that connects the MCP to the J1708 data link and other

vehicle inputs and optional system devices. It also provides the necessary wiring for optional

system features such as display screen disabling, SensorTRACS

, TrailerTRACS

, pager,

RMWL, the panic button, and the RCD for text to speech.

Cable Run

Run direction

—

Run the loose conductor end of the cable from the MAS to the dash area.

(The connector is too large to pass through access holes.)

Routing location

—

Route internally or externally. Use existing cable runs, if possible.

Cable dressing

—

Stow and secure any loose wires, making sure to keep the wires clear of

any sharp edges and to not interfere with panels or moving parts such as throttle or brake

linkage.

Installation instructions for optional accessories which use the accessory cable are provided

in chapters of this guide.

Use proper care when connecting cables.
