Check the cause

  1. Inspect the cab fuse panel for any blown fuses related to the instrument cluster, cab controls, or the ADIC memory power.

  2. Disconnect the JA Keypad and use a multimeter to verify it is receiving proper 12V power and a solid ground.

  3. Check the wiring harness and connectors between the Keypad (JA) and the ADIC for corroded pins, backed-out terminals, or chafed wires that could interrupt the CAN High or CAN Low signals.

  4. Connect a diagnostic tool to check for active CAN bus activity and verify if the central controller can see the JA module.
