2. Forward:
Warning - In the pages of this document are a diverse set of truck chassis system and
subsystem integration features which contain the potential for both simple and complex
operational situations and interactions when integrated in combination with a truck
chassis and truck mounted equipment. It is the responsibility of persons performing
truck chassis and, or truck mounted equipment system integration and testing to fully
understand the plurality of operational outcomes and take the appropriate as well as
necessary precautions to avoid property damage, personal injury up to and including
death when performing system integration and, or test in association with the content of
this document.
Note - In this manual, International® Truck and Engine Corporation provides

information about its different products to assist those who wish to modify these
products for individual applications. International does not recommend or approve any
firm nor make any judgements on the quality of the work performed by a particular firm.
Individuals who use the services of a Body Builder must satisfy themselves as to the
quality of the work.
The party installing a body, a fifth wheel, any other equipment, or making any
modifications to complete the vehicle for delivery and make it road-ready is responsible
to see that the completed vehicle complies with all applicable certification procedures
and safety standards, as may be set forth in Federal, State, and local statutes, rules and
regulations.
Specifications, descriptions and illustrative material in this literature are as accurate as

known at time of publication but are subject to change without notice. Illustrations are
not always to scale and may include optional equipment and accessories but may not
include all standard equipment.
Safety Information:
IMPORTANT - Read the following before starting the service procedure.
You must follow your company safety procedures when you service or repair
equipment. Be sure to understand all procedures and instructions before you begin
work on the unit. Some procedures require the use of special tools for safe and correct
service. Failure to use these special tools when required can cause injury to service
personnel or damage to vehicle components.
DISCLAIMER: INTERNATIONAL DOES NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR

CUSTOMER OR BODY BUILDER WIRING.
NOTE - After-market installed wiring for engine speed control must comply with the
following guidelines:
1. Sealed switches and connectors must be used for switches and connections that are
exposed to the weather or to salt spray emanating from the vehicle's tires.
2. Route and clip wiring to minimize chafing and exposure to weather. Use conduit,
loom, and/or tape to achieve this.
3. Fuse all power leads as close to the power source as possible. Remember fuses
protect the wiring - size fuses accordingly.
4. All ground connections that will be made to the frame or body must be connected to
clean bare metal. Remove all dirt, paint, grease and rust that would insulate the terminal
from ground. After connecting the ground, seal the connection with a good quality
grease or surface sealant to protect the connection from corrosion.
5. Spliced wires should be twisted together and soldered. Use a heat shrink tube with a
meltable inner wall to seal the connection. Do not expose splices to the weather.
WARNING - To avoid serious personal injury, possible death, or damage to the vehicle,
make sure the transmission is in neutral, parking brake is set, and the wheels are
blocked before undertaking service procedures. In addition, turn off the engine when
you leave the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running.
WARNING - To avoid personal injury, possible death, or damage to the vehicle when
adding electrical features, disconnect batteries. Reconnect batteries when installation is
complete.
Whenever disconnecting battery terminals; always disconnect the ground

terminal first. When reconnecting, always connect the ground terminal last.
To prevent injury to the eyes, face, limbs and body, it is imperative that lighted
materials, flames or sparks be kept away from the vent openings of the battery.
The gas mixture in the battery cells, which escapes through the vents, could
ignite and/or cause an explosion. This is particularly true when jumper cables are
being used.
In addition, inhaling of gas produced by the normal operation of the battery could
result in partial or permanent damage to the respiratory system.
Always wear eye protection when working around batteries. Do not attempt to
jump-start a vehicle having a frozen battery because the battery may explode. If a
frozen battery is suspected, examine all fill vents on the battery. If ice can be
seen, do not attempt to start with jumper cables as long as the battery remains
frozen. Thaw out the battery and recharge.
Do not check battery condition by shorting (flashing) across terminals.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in personal injury and/or
damage to the vehicle.
Battery cable terminals must be clean and tight. Use hot water and common baking
soda for removing terminal corrosion and for cleaning the top of the battery. Brighten
the contact surface with steel wool, apply a light coat of lubricant sealing grease such as
Fleetrite ® 472141-C1 or equivalent and reassemble. Be sure the terminals are
clamped tightly and that the battery is clamped securely in place.
When working around the terminals and battery, use extra care to avoid shorting. A
good practice is to insulate pliers and screwdrivers.
3. Vehicle Architectures:
3.1. Multiplexing Architecture:
Unlike the electrical systems on previous models, which utilized point-to-point wiring for
all input signals and output loads, this system uses multiplex technology to provide
control and communication between major functional areas of the vehicle. Multiplexing
simply means, communicating multiple pieces of information via a single twisted pair of
wires (called the data link) without requiring a wire for each piece of information. This
information could be gauge information such as engine oil pressure, or switch
information that controls vehicle functions such as headlamps.
The electrical system relies on a collection of electronic circuit modules and software to
perform vehicle functions instead of implementing similar features using complex wire
harness designs with electromechanical relays and switches. These electronic module
components are connected by data links. The data links can be thought of as computer
networks that allow the electronic components on the vehicle to communicate with one
another.
The concept of multiplexing is not new since data links for communicating between
engine controllers, the instrument cluster and the diagnostic connector have been used
for several years.
The goal of multiplexing is to reduce cab harness wiring and to simplify circuits. This is
accomplished by using a low current data link for communicating between cab switches,
the Body Controller and the Instrument Cluster. Other data links in the vehicle allow
other electrical controllers, the BC and the Instrument Cluster to communicate with each
other

4. Body Controller
4.1. Body Control Module Gen IV:
At the center of the Diamond Logic® Electrical System is the Body Controller (BC). The
BC is an electronic module that provides multiple analog and switched input/output
interfaces to monitor vehicle sensors and control vehicle functions through solid state
switches, relay driver outputs, and serial data communications. Serial datalinks
connected to the BC include the following:
The BC is located under the IP behind a kick plate to the left of the driver’s left foot. All
connections are now located inside the cab except for the power connection that passes
thru the dash panel to the engine compartment. The BC receives battery power from the
maxi-fuse block and Ignition (IGN) power from the IP harness.
The Body Controller communicates with plurality of modules over a series of differing
baud rate data links in an exchange of tens of thousands of digital messages ever
second. It also receives input from various sensors and hard wire inputs throughout the
truck. The BC converts these inputs, in accordance with the programmed “rules,” into
data to be transmitted on the datalinks. It is also the power source for circuits that feed
the components, controlled by the multiplexed switches, inside and outside of the cab.
The primary vehicle software programming resides in the Body Controller.

4.2. Body Control Module “Real-time Clock” Internal Power Source:
Note: Within the body control module is an internal power cell which powers the
module’s internal “real-time clock” during times when there is insufficient electrical
potential available from the main chassis battery electrical architecture to fully support
the body control module’s full electrical and operational requirements. Over time this
internal power cell will discharge and require replacement. The body control module’s
original internal power cell is integral to the control module and is permanently mounted
on the main printed circuit board and is not intended to be a serviceable component.
However, positioned next to the original internal power cell is a 2-way electrical
connector which is in parallel with, but diode blocked from the original internal power
cell. A new internal power cell module assembly can be added by pinned it into the 2-
way printed circuit board mounted mating connector to restore the internal power cell
operation. The replacement internal power cell module is packaged in the form of a new
body control module battery cover which includes a new power cell as well as a printed
circuit board mounted to the underside/interior of the new body control module battery
cover. Once the new internal power cell has been connected to the printed circuit board
mounted mating connector, the module assembly will replace the body control module’s
original plastic battery cover.
When the body controller’s internal power cell becomes discharge a fault code can be
accessed through either the gauge cluster’s diagnostic display or through Navistar’s
Diamond Logic Builder® service tool. The fault code suspect parameter number will be
displayed as SPN:516824 and have the diagnostic fault code name, “RTC Battery”.

5. Engine Speed Control Feature and Accommodation Packages
5.1. 12VGA: ENGINE CONTROL, REMOTE MOUNTED Provision for, Includes Wiring for
Body Builder Installation of PTO Controls, With Ignition Switch Control for International®
N13/A26 Electronic Engines.
Extended Description: Feature 12VGA is for use with International N13/A26 engines.
This feature provides two connectors for the Truck Equipment Manufacturer (TEM) or
body builder to connect to the engine hardwired interface for remote engine speed
control and monitoring. The connectors are in the engine compartment on the driver
side near the firewall and include the mating connectors with plugs for the installer to
replace desired cavity locations with terminated body wiring. With the proper wiring and
appropriate engine parameter settings, the body builder can remotely control preset,
variable, and remote pedal engine speed. The feature also includes interface wires for
Transfer Case Feedback, Engine Warning Light (EWL), Tachometer, Vehicle Speed
Pulse, Oil in Water LIGHT (OWL) and a PTO operational status datalink message for
proper remote engine speed control operation.
Note: For proper remote engine speed control when in PTO or equivalent modes of
vehicle operation, it is imperative that a body equipment source an appropriate ground
signal at the 12VGA interface, failure to do so will result in an OBD fault condition. If
features 12WPU Rear Engine PTO for N13/A26 or 12851 Front Engine PTO effects for
N13/A26 are part of the vehicle’s configuration and 12VGA is not present, the PTO
feedback circuit will have to be added to the vehicle for proper engine operation during
the PTO mode of operation.

6. Appendix - General Electrical Section:
Description - International vehicle electrical systems are becoming increasingly complex
with the addition of a BC, electronic engine and transmission controls, electronically
driven instrument gauges, and Antilock Brake Systems (ABS) to name a few. While
most systems still operate on battery voltage (12 volts), some systems operate at as
high as 107 volts (electronic fuel injection) and as low as five (5) volts (electronic engine
controls).
International publishes Electrical Circuit Diagram Manuals for all its models. Body
builders and installers should refer to these manuals before connecting body lights and
accessories to the vehicle electrical system to assure that circuits chosen are both
appropriate and not overloaded. Modifications not defined in the circuit diagram book
are not to be made to the vehicle electrical/electronic control systems without first
contacting International for assistance at its Tech Central Department, telephone 1-800-
336-4500.

J1939 HIGH SPEED DATA LINK CABLE (SAE J1939/15):

The information in this section applies to all severe and medium vocational series
models.
Performing the proper repairs or modifications of the cable is critical to the integrity and
performance of the vehicle systems. (For repair procedure see Electrical
Troubleshooting Guide - S08250 or Data Link Repair in this manual.) This information
based on SAE J1939/15 and TMC RP 142.
These instructions are intended for modifications that meet the SAE spec; i.e., no
internal resistor. When extending the backbone, the proper materials must be used. The
data link cable consists of a twisted pair of insulated wires and are covered by an
insulating jacket. The data link cable must meet the SAE - specified characteristic
impedance of 120-ohms. Never splice regular automotive type wire such as GXL, SXL,
TXL into the data link cable. Use data link cable furnished by Raychem, part number
2021D0309.

The backbone is the main part of the cable. This is terminated at each end with a 120-
ohm resistor. When adding a device, the backbone must be extended. This is done by
removing the resistor, inserting the backbone extension, then plugging the resistor and
the device into the extension.
J1939:
J1939 is a high-speed serial communications data link. The system requires two resistor
caps. The first resistor cap for Body Builder J1939 currently starts in the engine
compartment. The second resistor cap ends where the last module is placed. The wire
between these two resistors is called the backbone. The backbone cannot be longer
than 131.2 feet (40m). A module can tap into the backbone. This point is called the
Node. The distance between two nodes cannot be less than 3.9 inches (0.1m). The
cable length from the node to the module cannot be longer than 9.8 feet (3m).
6.5. HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUITS (GREATER THAN 50 VOLTS) ON INTERNATIONAL
TRUCKS AND BUSES:
WARNING - To avoid property damage, personal injury, or death, refer to the

manufacturer's service information before working on any high voltage
equipment. High voltage circuits and components contain voltage levels that may
cause equipment damage, electrical shock, and/or electrocution if handled
incorrectly.
Only a trained technician may perform service inside high voltage components.
When working around or maintaining high voltage circuits, please seek high
voltage training.
NOTE - The intent of this section is to provide some basic guidelines when working on
or around International vehicles that are equipped with high voltage electrical equipment
and circuits. For specific instructions, maintenance, or service information on specific
equipment or options, refer to the service manuals for the specified truck models and
component(s). It IS NOT the intent of this section to provide detailed service instructions
for high voltage equipment and circuits.
High voltage systems require the maintainer to be familiar with two types of electrical
systems.
DC (Direct Current)
Most DC systems on today's trucks use 12volt negative GND. Some systems can store
DC electricity in batteries with operating voltages as high as 600 DC volts.
· AC (Alternating Current)

The main difference between AC and DC systems is that the voltage levels in DC
systems remain constant while the voltage levels in AC systems are constantly
changing. When measuring an AC system, it is important to know that the average
voltage is zero, and that is why A VOLTMETER SET TO DC WILL NOT INDICATE
THE PRESENCE OF AN AC VOLTAGE WHEN CONNECTED TO AN AC CIRCUIT!
High voltage can be lethal. Always refer to the manufacturer of the high voltage
component when maintenance or repairs are needed. In most cases, diagnostics and
repair are performed after the high voltage circuits are disabled. If working around or
maintaining high voltage circuits, please seek high voltage training.
WARNING - To avoid property damage, personal injury, or death, circuits must be
checked using a voltmeter for the presence of both DC and AC voltages. A
voltmeter set to DC will not indicate the presence of an AC voltage when
connected to an AC circuit! Contacting an unknown AC or DC voltage may cause
equipment damage, electrical shock, and/or electrocution.
Only a trained technician may perform service inside high voltage components. If
working around or maintaining high voltage circuits, please seek high voltage
training.
Understanding High Voltage Equipment and Circuits on International Products:
Some examples of high voltage equipment that can be encountered on products are as
follows:
— Auxiliary Power Units (APUs)
APUs are basically small diesel-powered generator units that are integrated into the
vehicle electrical system. APUs are utilized in combination with inverters and battery
chargers. APUs are often set up to automatically start when the electrical management
system deems it necessary to maintain battery charge or electrical demand requires it.
NOTE - APU high voltage wiring may NOT be marked for easy identification as high
voltage.
— Shore Power
Shore power is a connection from a vehicle to an external 120Volt AC power source.
The vehicle is equipped with an exterior receptacle that allows connection to an external
“shore” power source.
NOTE - High voltage shore power wiring may NOT be marked for easy identification as
high voltage.
— Inverters
Inverters are electronic devices used to change DC (Direct Current) into AC (Alternating
Current). Some inverters contain converters that also convert AC to DC for battery
charging or running 12V equipment.
NOTE - High voltage wiring for inverters may NOT be marked for easy identification as
high voltage.
— Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs)
HEVs combine internal combustion engines with high voltage batteries, electric motors,
and inverters to offer higher fuel efficiency and lower emissions without compromising
power, range, and convenient fueling of conventional vehicles. Regardless of the HEV
design, high electrical voltages and currents are present.
NOTE - The industry standard for high voltage cables is for the cables to be covered in
ORANGE CONDUIT.
If orange conduit is observed on a vehicle, please review the safety precautions for that
system.
How to Identify High Voltage Circuits:
High voltage circuits are not always connected with large wires. The best way to identify
high voltage equipment or circuits is to be familiar with the equipment and circuit
diagrams as well as to look for high voltage warning labels and orange conduit. Inspect
the vehicle for any equipment or circuits added after the truck was built
(owner/operators may add high voltage components such as inverters or APUs).
All electrical circuits associated with APUs, shore power, inverters, and HEVs should be
considered high voltage. The standard for high voltage cabling on HEVs is orange.
APUs, inverters, shore power, and cabin 110/120V outlet wiring may not indicate high
voltage by visual inspection (they may not be marked and are NOT orange in color).
Servicing International Products:
The following steps outline the appropriate method to follow to identify and address any
maintenance or service on International products with factory-installed high voltage
equipment.
1. Complete related training prior to attempting to identify and service any high voltage
system.
2. Review the line-set ticket provided with the vehicle or from ISIS and identify all high
voltage components. Inspect the vehicle for any equipment or circuits added after the
truck was built (owner/operators may add high voltage components such as inverters or
APUs that could be live and powering circuits in the vehicle EVEN WITH THE IGN OFF
AND THE BATTERIES DISCONNECTED).
3. Refer to manufacturer’s service publications for identified high voltage components.

4. Physically locate high voltage components on the vehicle and disable them according
to manufacturer’s instructions (some components may require a waiting period or
special procedures to discharge the voltage completely).
5. Use Best Work Practices (see below) when performing work on electrical systems.
Best Work Practices:
WARNING - To avoid personal injury or death, permit only trained responsible
and capable persons to operate or maintain the equipment. Carelessly operating
or neglecting maintenance despite the safe design of any vehicle and its high
voltage equipment may result in personal injury or death.
The danger of injury through electrical shock is possible whenever electrical

power is present. Most fatal injuries result from high-voltage exposure; however,
people can sustain severe injuries from low voltage power if it has a high current
flow.
· Be aware of ALL high voltage equipment on the vehicle; review line-set/build ticket
and the owner and service manuals of high voltage equipment BEFORE starting any
work.
· When working on this equipment, remain alert at all times. Never work on the
equipment when physically or mentally fatigued, and never work alone near high
voltage equipment.
· Always stand on an insulated, dry surface when working on any electrical circuit. Do
not handle any kind of electrical device while standing in water, while barefoot, or
while hands or feet are wet.
· Always work in an adequately illuminated area.
· Always use appropriate protective equipment: insulated gloves, rubber gloves,
goggles/face shield, safety shoes, protective clothing, and insulated tools when
working on electrical components/circuits of the vehicle.
· Never wear jewelry when working on this equipment. Jewelry can conduct electricity
resulting in electric shock or burns and may get caught in moving components
causing injury.
· When working on vehicles that have high voltage devices or equipment, use
appropriate alerting techniques in plain view to warn people that may be in the
general area and to prevent inadvertent activation of any disabled high voltage
circuit(s) during service: safety signs, safety symbols, tags, barricades, cones, etc.
· Keep a fire extinguisher close by at all times. Extinguishers rated “ABC” by the
National Fire Protection Association are appropriate for use on the electrical system.
Make sure the extinguisher is properly charged and be familiar with its use. Consult
the local fire department with any question pertaining to fire extinguishers.
· Ensure that the high voltage power, high voltage power generating equipment, and
high voltage storage devices are disconnected, locked out, or otherwise disabled
BEFORE working on or around the vehicle, its electrical circuits, or components.
Unless disabled, Auxiliary Power Units (APUs) may start at any time without
warning; when this occurs, the circuits associated with the APU become energized
with potentially lethal high voltage. Some components may require a waiting period
or special procedures to discharge the voltage completely.
· Use an appropriate electrical tester and procedures to confirm that the power is
disconnected BEFORE performing any work on or near any high voltage
components/circuits.
· Exercise caution around output circuits even when the input power is off. Parallel
power sources and energy storage devices can still be dangerous. Be familiar with
the high voltage equipment installed on the vehicle. Some systems contain high
voltage condensers that may require time to discharge after power is removed.
· After disconnecting or exposing a high-voltage connector or terminal, insulate it
immediately using insulation tape.
· After completion of any electrical work, BEFORE restoring the power, verify that
parts and/ or tools are removed from the work area and that the fasteners are
firmly tightened to the specified torque and the connectors are correctly
connected.
· Voltage can be fatal at levels greater than 60 volts. High voltage can jump a
larger air gap than low voltage. If contact is made with high voltage, it may not
be possible to simply “let go”.
· Towing a HEV with its drive wheels on the ground may cause the motor to
generate electricity. Consult the operator’s/owner’s manual for proper towing
procedures.
· If a high voltage fuse or circuit protection device trips, do not re-energize the
circuit until it has been determined that the circuit is safe. See manufacturer’s
troubleshooting procedures before servicing a high voltage system.
· Reference OSHA Regulations as necessary and applicable.
Suppression:
International® strongly recommends these electromagnetic devices be electrically
suppressed, when adding electromagnetic devices such as relays, magnetic switches,
and solenoids.
Unsuppressed electromagnetic devices can generate large voltage spikes which are
conducted into the vehicle electrical system. These voltage spikes may adversely affect
customer added electronic devices and in some instances may affect International
installed electronic components.
When installing electromagnetic devices, specify suppressed units. If suppressed units
are not available, diode suppression may be added as shown below:
The following suppressed relays and magnetic switches are available from International.
Suppressed Relays and Magnetic Switches:
1691520C91 MAGNETIC SWITCH - CONTINUOUS DUTY (SUPPRESSED) 100 AMP
1693479C91 MAGNETIC SWITCH - INTERMITTENT DUTY (SUPPRESSED) 100 AMP
3519350C1 MICRO RELAY – SPDT (SUPPRESSED), NO – 20 AMP, NC – 10 AMP
Welding Information:
Whenever electric welding is done on any part of the vehicle, it is not necessary to
disconnect the International electronic modules in the cab such as the BC, RPM, and
the instrument cluster. The welder's GND must be connected as close to the weld as
possible. If the vehicle is equipped with an International engine, disconnect both the
positive (+) and the negative (-) battery cables including the electronic power feeds prior
to electric welding. If it is necessary to weld close to an electronic component, it is
recommended that the component be temporarily removed.
Consult manufacturer’s instructions for all other electronic modules such as Allison
Transmission, Eaton Auto Shift Transmission, Bendix ABS, Wabco ABS, Cummins
Engine, Caterpillar Engine, and Detroit Diesel Engine.
Routing Guidelines:
Any hosing, tubing, battery cable, wiring or electrical harness must not rub on a sharp
edge. However, due to the high abrasion resistance of synflex tubing, it is permissible
for synflex tubing to contact the lower edge of the frame rail flange when the tubing is
making the transition from the outside to down and under the rail. This does not mean
that proper clearance or the need for protective wrap is not needed when synflex line
contacts sharp edges or threaded fasteners.
Any hosing, tubing, battery cable, wiring or electrical harness must not rub or contact a
hot surface. There should be 5" minimum clearance from the exhaust depending on the
situation. The further back from the turbo, the less clearance required.
Nothing should rub or contact the copper compressor discharge tubing other than the
clamp(s) that support it.
All hosing, tubing, battery cables or electrical harnesses should be supported at least
every 18" to 20".
Strap locks used to directly clamp, or support battery cables or main engine wiring
harnesses must be no less than 7/16" in width.
Strap locks are not to be used on any bulk hose materials (heater hoses, make-up lines,
etc.).
