On my model year of Fuso (2004) there is a lot of diagnostic information that can be read and tests that can be done using the Mitsubishi Multi Use Tester (MUT) II. For example: fault codes, actuator tests, boost pressure, sensor readings, voltages, etc. This sort of information would be very useful for those of us doing our own maintenance, and for anyone traveling places where Fuso dealers are difficult to find or nonexistent. In fact many troubleshooting procedures are only possible with the MUT.
However it seems this tool is very expensive ($1000+). For many other vehicles cheaper third party software can be purchased that has most of the functionality of the factory tools. But it appears for the Fuso there is no alternative to the MUTII to get this sort of information.
Anyone have any insight to add here? Is there software out there that can access the Fuso onboard diagnostic system? Does anyone know any specifics about the electronics in the truck, for example what sort of network is used (CAN, OBD, J1939, etc.)? I know the fault codes can be read by the flashes of the warning lamp. But I'm really looking for software that can do more advanced diagnostics.
