5 How to diagnose
5.1 Connections
5.1.1 Preparation
Normal testing conditions
Turn on the vehicle power supply.•
Vehicle battery voltage range should be 9-14V and working voltage •
of MAXIMUS2.0 is 5V.
Throttle should be closed at its close position. •
Ignition timing and idle speed should be within specified range; •
water and transmission oil temperature are within normal working
range (water temperature is 90-110℃ and transmission oil
temperature is 50-80℃).
Select testing connectors
If MAXIMUS2.0 is testing vehicles equipped with universal OBD II 16
PIN diagnostic socket, please use the included diagnostic connector.
(For vehicles with non-OBD II 16 PIN diagnostic socket, a non-16 PIN
connector is required.)
5.1.2 DLC Location
The DLC (Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link Connector) is the
standardized 16-cavity connector where diagnostic code readers
interface with the vehicle’s on-board computer. The DLC is usually
located 12 inches from the center of the instrument panel (dash), under
or around the driver’s side for most vehicles. If Data Link Connector is
not located under dashboard, a label should be there telling location.
For some Asian and European vehicles, the DLC is located behind the
ashtray and the ashtray must be removed to access the connector. If
the DLC cannot be found, refer to the vehicle’s service manual for the

6.3 Sensor Simulation
6.3.1 Connections
Firstly, power on the main unit (Connect one end of the power 1.
adaptor into the power interface of MAXIMUS2.0 main unit, and the
other end to the AC 220V outlet.);
Plug one end of the sensor test cable (black) into the “COM” 2.
interface of the sensorbox, then connect the other end to the test
probe or electronic control converting cable;
Connect one end of the sensor test cable (red) into the “VΩHz” 3.
interface of the sensorbox, and then connect the other end to the
test probe or electronic control converting cable.
Note: Choose corresponding cables and test probes according to
different terminals.
6.3.2 Simulation test
Simulation test enables users to exactly judge if the sensor is good or
not to avoid replacing components blindly. For example, the trouble
MAXIMUS2.0 User's Manual
25
code indicates the fault is in water temperature sensor itself. But we
need to confirm whether the fault results from water temperature
sensor or the connections between ECU and sensors, or ECU itself.
In this case, we can make full use of simulation test to input the signal
of simulating water temperature sensor, instead of water temperature
sensor, to the microcomputer. If the engine works better and the fault
vanishes, the fault is in the water temperature sensor. If the fault
still occurs, input the signal to the corresponding terminals of ECU.
Consequently, if the fault disappears, the fault lies in the connection
between water temperature sensor and ECU, otherwise, the fault
exists in ECU.
After all connections are properly made (refer to Chapter 6.3.1 for
details), power on your MAXIMUS2.0, launch MAXIMUS2.0 application
and enter the function menu interface, then tap “Sensor” to enter the
test selection screen. See Fig. 6-2.

or inputting the desired voltage based on the working characteristics
of sensor, tap the button, then the MAXIMUS2.0 will begin to
output the simulation voltages. Please note the red probe is the output
terminal of simulation voltage.
2. Fixed frequency simulation
This option enables you to simulate the square wave signal of pulse
frequency of 0.1 ~ 15 kHz, amplitude range of -5V ~ +5 V and duty
cycle 10% ~ 90%.

This option offers great convenience for users to simulate special
waveform or fault wave. Users only draw the shape of waveform which
needs to be simulated in central drawing area, and then configure
some parameters on the top, namely high level, low level, and cycle
of waveform, then tap , MAXIMUS2.0 will output a waveform as
desired.
Warning: Just draw a complete periodic waveform (when it is
outputted, the system will regard the waveform in the drawing area as
a periodic one). Users should draw an as large as wave in drawing
zone so that the system can sample more points to reduce tolerance.
While drawing, just pay attention to the shape of waveform, high level,
low level and period can be ignored, which can be set in the Confi gure
option.

6.3.3 Precautions on checking vehicle sensor
Hold the connector when plugging or unplugging it. Do not pull the •
cable for unplugging.
At fi rst check the fuse, fusible line and terminals. Then check others •
after eliminating these faults.
When measuring voltage, the ignition switch should be on and the •
battery voltage should not be less than 11V.
When measuring voltage, please shake the lead lightly in the •
vertical and horizontal direction for more precision.
When checking whether there is open in the line, disconnect the •
CEU and the relevant sensor at fi rst, then measure the resistance
28
MAXIMUS2.0 User's Manual
among the ports of sensor in order to determine whether open-
circuit / contact fault exists or not.
When checking if there is a short in the line, please disconnect the •
CEU and the relevant sensor, then measure the resistance value of
the ports between the connected port and the vehicle body. If the
resistance value is more than 1MΩ, no fault occurs.
Before disassembling the engine electrical control system cable, •
cut off the power supply, that is, turn the ignition switch OFF and
disconnect the cables on the battery poles.
Contact the test probe and the two terminals/ the two leads to be •
measured when measuring the voltage between the two terminals
or the two leads.
Contact the red test probe to the terminal/ the cable to be •
measured, and the black probe to the ground when measuring
voltage of one terminal/ one cable.
When checking the continuity of the terminals, contacts and leads, •
the method for measuring their resistances can be used.
Check the faults in the terminals of the CEU to sensors, relays, etc.•
There are two test probes in the testing wire. The black one is the •
common signal terminal (signal GND); the red one is the input
terminal for voltage, resistance, and frequency test and output
terminal for simulation voltage, simulation frequency and oxygen
sensor. Please choose the correct probes to match the different
terminals.

7.2 Test Environment
7.2.1 Test environment
Inside the vehicle test indicates that the battery connects to loading
devices, such as engine, etc. After doing battery test, it can perform
charging system and actuation system test, which is proceeded as a
whole simultaneously. Charging system and actuation system test is
not required but must not be performed before battery test. Because it
is diffi cult for vehicle technicians to judge where is faulty exactly if they
have the faintest idea of battery’s status itself.
Outside the vehicle test indicates that the battery is disconnected
from all loading devices on vehicles. Therefore, only battery test is
supported in this condition.
7.2.2 Battery status and description
There are mainly 5 states as follows:
No. States Descriptions
1 Good battery Indicates battery is normal.
2 Replace battery Indicates that battery is aged or becomes
rejected, or battery life cycle approaches to
be exhausted. In this case, battery voltage
appears to be normal, but battery itself is
not well, i.e. battery polarity board has been
completely vulcanized or aged. Please
replace battery immediately.
3 Good-recharge Stands for low battery. The battery is good
itself.
MAXIMUS2.0 User's Manual

4 Charge-retest It is better for a few batteries to be fully
charged before testing in order to avoid
judging in error under special conditions.
5 Bad cell Indicates one of the battery cells is bad and
can not work normally, but for which one is
bad, it can’t be verifi ed. In this case, battery
voltage is generally lower than 11V, mainly
resulting from internal circuitry damage, such
as short circuit, open circuit, dummy weld
etc.

7.4.1 Connection
Connect one end of the A/B cable to the B type USB terminal of
the batterybox, and then connect the other end to the USB port of
MAXIMUS2.0 display tablet. This connection applies to outside the
vehicle test and inside the vehicle.
Notes:
1. Wait about 10s and begin to communicate since the batterybox
needs to initialize after connection is complete, otherwise,
communication may fail.
2. Red lamp on the batterybox means it has been successfully
powered up; If the green light is always on, it indicates the clip is
well connected; while the green light blinks, it indicates that the
clip has poor contact. Do not perform any test until the clip and A/B
cable are properly connected.

MAXIMUS2.0 User's Manual
The following operation steps are identical to Steps 6 ~ 7 in Chapter
7.4.2 Battery test. Please refer to it for details.
7.5 Precautions on battery test
For the purpose of getting accurate test results, unless otherwise
special required, all loads need to be power off such as headlamp,
engine etc. before testing battery.
The operating time required for charging system and actuation system
test varies from person to person. If the engine does not start or
accelerate within 30 seconds, the system will prompt you “receiving
timeout” and return to the initial status.
Whether Engine is off or not has no influence on charging and
actuation test result after increased speed is detected, but other loads
need to be powered off.
The accuracy of battery voltage, charging voltage, start voltage is
0.01V in test results; CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) precision is 5CCA.
Generally, charging voltage value is greater than starting voltage.
Charging voltage range is as follows: 13.8--14.5V for domestic vehicle;
13.3--15.5V for imported vehicles. The voltage varies with different
car models, so you have to judge based on related vehicle models.
In general, the DC voltage is stable, but it also varies with different
revolution speed.
Starting voltage range: the value higher than 9.6V is regular, otherwise
it is too low. Due to different situations, whether the starting voltage
is higher or not does not mean the vehicles or batteries are faulty.
For detailed faults, other special equipments are needed. To validate
the accuracy of the value, the best method is to collect the signals of
starting and charging voltage and observe it on an oscillometer.
Generally, the voltage is lower than 11V for the bad cell battery, but it
is possible that the battery is completely exhausted or has a serious
low capacity. In this case, just recharge your battery. Bad cell always
happens when the loads on a stopping vehicle are turned on for a long
time.
Please note that it is normal for quick detecting of “Increase speed”
because it follows the theory of detecting “Increase speed”: if the
detected voltage is higher than the previous battery test voltage, the
system will prompt you a message of “Engine has been speeded”
It has no influence on test result in the event that engine’s output
voltage or engine revolution is not very stable. No matter whether
the vehicle is accelerated or not, the output voltage only differs within
0.2V.
While doing inside the vehicle test, Kelvin clip is always found to be
in poor contact. To remain it in good contact, please shake it several
times before testing. Take down the battery connector, and test it
again, the value probably varies. The deviation may arise from battery
connector.
Pay more attention to connect the clip. The battery poles connect
with conductor, which makes the clip has a poor connection when
testing battery. A tolerance of dozens of CCA occurs if the clip is out of
position, or oil, dust attaches on the pole. The gear and main body of
clip should be fully matched with battery poles.
Notes:
Battery poles inside the vehicle are enveloped by connectors, which 1. may produce some errors for test results. The tolerance results
from the resistance of connectors. The greater the resistance value
is, the greater the tolerance becomes. But generally, the tolerance
does not affect the test conclusion.
Testing the battery separately generates an exact test result. 2. The battery box is a very useful auxiliary tool for quick test. If any
problems were found, test it separately for getting an exact test
result.

8 Oscilloscope (coming soon)
Oscilloscope is an optional function of MAXIMUS2.0, including
automotive oscilloscope and automotive ignition waveform.
Automotive oscilloscope can make the auto repair technician quickly
judged the faults on automotive electronic equipment and wiring, and
the oscilloscope sweep speed is far greater than the signal frequency
of such vehicles, usually 5-10 times of the measured signal. The
automotive oscilloscope not only can quickly capture the circuit signal,
but also can slowly display the waveform to observe and analyze. It
can also record and store the tested signal waveform which can be
played back to observe for the fast signal, having great convenience
to failure analysis. Either high-speed signal (e.g.: injection nozzle,
intermittent fault signal) or the slow-speed signal (e.g. the throttle
position change and the oxygen sensor signal) can be observed
through automotive oscilloscope in an appropriate waveform.
The electronic signal can be compared and judged via measuring fi ve
parameters indexes. The fi ve parameters indexes are the amplitude
(the maximum voltage of signal), the frequency (the cycle time of
signal), the shape (the appearance of signal), the pulse width (the
duty cycle or the time range of signal), and the array (the repetition
characteristic of signal), which can be tested, displayed, saved by the
automotive oscilloscope. Via the waveform analysis can further detect
the circuit fault on sensors, actuators, circuits, and electronic control
units, etc.
9 Borescope (coming soon)
Automotive borescope is mainly applied to those unseen parts of
engine, fuel tank, braking system.
While testing a vehicle system, engine is one of the main parts to
be checked. To check if the internal of a engine is qualifi ed or not or
whether internal carbon deposit and damage exists in the engine or
not, we can make full use of a borescope to solve these quesitons.
MAXIMUS2.0 provides an optional function of borescope.
The borescope is mainly composed of an inspection camera, fl exible
tube and USB cable. The waterresistant camera lens with adjustable
LED lights enables you to observe the parts that can not be seen in
wet, dark, fl uid soaked places. The included fl exible tube is convenient
for easy inspection and allows for access to hard-to-reach areas.
In addition, the captured pictures and videos also provide you intuitive
data for easy analysis.
