1. Disconnect the batteries by disconnecting the negative battery cable first, then the
positive cable.
2. Access the V-MAC III Vehicle Electronic Control Unit (VECU). (On all models
excluding DM and DMM, the VECU is located below the dashboard, behind the rider's
side kick panel. On DM and DMM models, the VECU is located on the left-hand side of
the vehicle, mounted by the engine cover inside the cab.)
3. Remove the dashboard panels as required to access the main cab wiring harness.
4. Disconnect the J3 connector from the VECU.
5. Use the appropriate terminal end removal tool included in the V-MAC Terminal
Removal/Installation Kit, tool No. J 44786, to remove the J1939 yellow wire (VJ3-1-0.8,
or VJ3-1-0.5 if the original J1939 line is a three-wire harness) from cavity 1, green wire
(VJ3-2-0.8, or VJ3-2-0.5 if the original J1939 line is a three-wire harness) from cavity 2
and the bare wire (VJ3-3-0.5 if utilized) from cavity 3 of the connector body.

6. Disconnect the power supply harness from the ABS ECU (18-pin on Meritor WABCO
D-Full Versions and Eaton systems, and 15-pin on Meritor WABCO D-Basic and E
versions). Use the appropriate terminal end removal tool included in the V-MAC
Terminal Removal/Installation Kit, tool No. J 44786, to remove the J1939 green wire
(VJ3-2A-0.8, or VJ3-2A-0.5 if the original J1939 line is a three-wire harness) from
cavity 1, yellow wire (VJ3-1A-0.8, or VJ3-1A-0.5 if the original J1939 line is a three-wire
harness) from cavity 3 and the bare wire (VJ3-3-0.5 if utilized) from cavity 2 of the
connector body.

Insert yellow wire (VJ3-1-0.8, or VJ3-1-0.5 if the original J1939 line was a threewire harness) into connector cavity A.
Insert green wire (VJ3-2-0.8, or VJ3-2-0.5 if the original J1939 line was a threewire harness) into connector cavity B.
Insert the bare wire (VJ3-3-0.5) into connector cavity C, only if a bare wire had
been used with the original harness.

If a bare wire was NOT USED with the original J1939 harness,
DO NOT USE THE BARE WIRE of the overlay harness. Either
fold the wire back and secure it to the harness with tie wraps, or
cut it off.
13. Slide the heat shrink tubing over the connector body and use a suitable heat source to
shrink the tube in place.
14. Install the blue wedge lock into the connector body, then connect the overlay harness
connector to the engine harness connector.
15. Insert the wires into the VECU J3 connector body as follows:
4
Insert the yellow wire (VJ3-1-0.8, or VJ3-1-0.5 if the original J1939 line was a
three-wire harness) into J3 connector cavity 1.
Insert the green wire (VJ3-2-0.8, or VJ3-1-0.5 if the original J1939 line was a
three-wire harness) into J3 connector cavity 2.
Insert the bare wire (VJ3-3-0.5) into J3 connector cavity 3, only if a bare wire had
been used with the original J1939 harness.
If a bare wire was NOT USED with the original J1939 harness,
DO NOT USE THE BARE WIRE of the overlay harness. Either
fold the wire back and secure it to the harness with a tie wrap, or
cut it off.

16. Insert the overlay harness terminal ends into the ABS ECU power supply harness
connector as follows:
Insert green wire (VJ3-2A-0.8, or VJ3-2A-0.5 if the original J1939 line was a threewire harness) into cavity 1 of the ABS power supply connector.
Insert yellow wire (VJ3-1A-0.8, or VJ3-1A-0.5 if the original J1939 line was a
three-wire harness) into cavity 3 of the ABS power supply connector.
Insert bare wire (VJ3-3A-0.5) into cavity 2 of the ABS power supply connector only
if a bare wire had been used with the original J1939 harness.
If a bare wire was NOT USED with the original J1939 harness,
DO NOT USE THE BARE WIRE of the overlay harness. Either
fold the wire back and secure it to the harness with a tie wrap, or
cut it off.
17. If equipped with an electronic transmission, connect the J1939 electronic transmission
harness connector to the transmission ECU pigtail harness. If not equipped with an
electronic transmission, insulate the harness connector with electrical tape and use a
tie wrap to secure the connector to the main cab harness.
