• Electronic systems are used increasingly by manufacturers to improve vehicle dependability and maintaining them is equally important.
DAVIE (Daf Vehicle Investigation Equipment) is a workshop aid that becomes part of the Daf back-up early next year to provide some of the answers as far as Daf fleet users are concerned.
It is a portable micro-computer that, when programmed with details of vehicle and its specific operating conditions, will enable service dealers to locate faults quickly, as well as test components and programme or reprogramme them.
Oaf vehicles fitted with ABS braking systems, or the new ECAS air suspension recently announced as an option on the new 14 and 16.26-tonne GVW rigids for UK, can be checked out by DAVIE through a single plug connection.
All future electronic components on Daf trucks will be adapted for this form of system analysis.
