How to maintain J1939 9-pin cable in daily life? We need to do these things well

If the J1939 9-pin cable is not maintained regularly, it is prone to malfunctions and increases maintenance costs. In fact, simple maintenance can extend its lifespan. These maintenance points should be noted carefully.

Firstly, 'regularly inspect the appearance'. Take a few minutes every week or month to check the cables, focusing on whether the outer skin is damaged or cracked, whether the plug is loose or deformed, and whether the pins are rusted or oxidized. If any problems are found, they should be dealt with in a timely manner.

Secondly, 'avoid excessive pulling'. When repairing or moving equipment, do not pull the cable forcefully, otherwise it may cause the internal core to break or the pins to loosen. If you need to move the cable, first loosen the fixing screw, gently unplug the plug, and then reinstall it. The operation should be gentle.

Thirdly, 'do a good job in dust and water prevention'. If the cable is used outdoors or in a humid environment, regularly clean the dust and accumulated water at the interface. After rain or work, wipe the cable and interface dry in a timely manner. If possible, cover the interface with a waterproof sleeve to prevent moisture from entering the interior and causing a short circuit.

Fourth, pay attention to the ambient temperature. Try to avoid cables being exposed to extreme high or low temperatures for extended periods of time, such as keeping them away from high-temperature exhaust pipes in summer, and starting equipment regularly in cold areas during winter to maintain a certain temperature and prevent freezing damage.
