JPRO is one of the most advanced and trusted all-in-one diagnostic tools in the commercial vehicle industry. Designed by Noregon, JPRO provides complete diagnostic coverage for heavy-duty trucks, buses, and equipment powered by multiple engine and vehicle manufacturers. Unlike OEM-specific tools, JPRO offers a unified platform that reads and analyzes data from all major systems—making it a top choice for workshops, fleet maintenance teams, and mobile diesel technicians.
What Is JPRO?
JPRO is a PC-based diagnostic software that connects to commercial vehicles using a compatible adapter such as Nexiq USB-Link or Noregon’s DLA+ 2.0. Once connected, the software scans the entire vehicle, retrieves fault codes, monitors real-time data, and provides detailed repair guidance.
It covers:
- Heavy-duty trucks (Class 7–8)
- Medium-duty trucks
- Buses and transit vehicles
- Construction and vocational equipment (with the add-on)
- Trailers and ABS systems
JPRO is valued because it consolidates multiple OEM diagnostic capabilities into a single, user-friendly platform—reducing the need for multiple tools and saving time.
