Titan Connect™ Electrical System

Titan Connect is more than just a wire harness. It’s an electrical platform which enables the truck to become a connected system. J1939 CAN communication links the engine and transmission with a “smart” power distribution module, a keypad and the NexStar crane. Other accessories such as compressors and power units can also be added.

Auto Crane was the first in the work truck industry to start connecting components using J1939 communication. Creating this “connect” system has allowed Auto Crane to feed information to existing truck telematics, another industry first.
