The 2016 TITAN XD Diesel has TWO batteries that are connected in parallel and will require modified handling compared to typical battery testing procedures.

Before testing, make sure your GR8 or EXP800 has been updated with the most recent software. Software updates can be found in ASIST on the left side menu.

Select Main Menu: Specialty Tools >> Midtronics Software Update.

To test the TITAN XD Diesel batteries.

Select VEHICLE MODEL/ TITAN TRUCK, and NEXT.
Then select 2016 DIESEL from the list for the proper test method.

For Check-In, Inventory, Customer Delivery, and System Test:

  • The batteries must be separated (battery cables disconnected) and each battery tested individually.
  • For the diagnostic test, follow the on-screen instructions for proper battery separation.

For other tests (Verify/Manual/Bench Test/ Diagnostic, etc)

  • Testing is done by connecting test leads to the
    passenger side battery.
  • This will test both batteries at the same time.

IMPORTANT: Before disconnecting a battery cable, wait at least two minute after the ignition is turned OFF. If you DO NOT wait before disconnecting the battery cables, DTCs may be set.
