Technicians face a multitude of questions when drivers bring in their trucks for service. The trucking/ logistics industry is also challenged with filling employment opportunities to a new generation of truck drivers. PACCAR developed PACLink to provide a reliable and transparent resource amongst drivers, fleet owners, and maintenance operators, while also attracting new drivers with a modern vehicle diagnostics platform.
PAClink provides immediate guidance to the technician on where service is needed with relevant diagnostic metrics, while providing the driver with a sense of ease knowing they will be back on the road quickly. Real-time diagnostics of PACCAR vehicles is enabled through a BLE device connected through the 9-pin diagnostic port running J1939. Vectorform has been working with PACCAR on maintaining and growing the mobile product since late 2018.
