Twisted
Distorted from the routed commodities’ original shape about it’s cross-sectional center line
TouchItems that contact each other but do not have relative movement
Routing and Clipping Guidelines
1 Brackets used in routing and clipping should be Material Grade 50 or better to ensure sufficient clamp load when sharing
joint connections with cross members or other structural members. This applies only to joint connections using a low nut.
Brackets of Material Grade 30 are acceptable provided the shared joint is using a high nut. The area of the clip bracket
under the bolt head must be a least as large as the bolt head itself.
2 Clips that scratch exterior mounting surfaces shall not be used (i.e., barbed/spring type) unless the material is non-corrod-
ing (i.e., plastic). Clips must have rust protection.
3 Clip sizes should adequately secure the bundle without restricting flow, causing collapse, or preventing relative
movement.
4 Bundles shall be supported at 24 inches (600 mm) maximum intervals, a cable tie should be used between clip points on
bundles with the exception of electrical wiring harness which shall have a maximum support distance of 18 inches (450
mm) and a cable tie on bundles between clip points. When air and electrical lines are bundled together, the commodity
with the greater cross sectional area may determine the support spacing. A minimum of two cable ties shall be used between clip points to bundle electrical lines when the larger interval is used.

Support Distances, Continued
1 Support cables near connectors every 4 inches (100 mm)
W3104144
1 Electrical cables and wiring harnesses are to be secured 4 inches (100 mm) from the wire insertion end of the connector
or clipped to the body.
2 Routing and clipping on purchased components (i.e., engine/transmission) should not include removing or replacing a
bolt(s), nut(s) or screw(s) installed by the manufacturer. In such cases where this is unavoidable, the bolt(s), nut(s) or
screw(s) shall be re-installed to the manufacturer’s specifications.
3 Bundles should not contact sharp edges of cross members. Contact may occur if it is against a smooth surface, a smooth
radiused edge or a coined edge and the bundle is secured to prevent independent movement.
4 Hoses, tubing, pipes and electrical conduits shall not rub each other but may touch.
5 The fabric braided portion of the compressor discharge hose is compatible to be bundled with all routed air lines.
6 The compressor discharge pipe shall be routed independent of all other routing.
7 Electric cables/harnesses must not be bundled with fuel or hydraulic lines. The electrical cables/harnesses may be routed
parallel with fuel or hydraulic lines, however must remain separated by approved clipping materials. When design control
is possible, electrical cables/harnesses will be routed above fuel or hydraulic lines. If fuel or hydraulic lines must route
above circuit protected electrical cables /harnesses, the fuel or hydraulic lines will have no fittings or potential leak points
above electrical cables/harnesses and shall be minimized to the shortest distance possible over low current electrical cables/harnesses.
8 All associated markings on air and electrical harnesses should have a corresponding clipping apparatus.
9 Critical clipping locations shall be designated on the component to insure proper placement in the vehicle (i.e., tape).
10 Maximum support distance for compressor discharge rigid pipe, 30 inches (762 mm). Pipe to be isolated from support
brackets (i.e. rubber isolator).
11 Maximum support distance for compressor discharge flex hose, 24 inches (600 mm).
12 Compressor discharge line should have a constant fall from compressor to air dryer. A dual fall is allowable provided it oc-
curs on the engine and within 24 inches (600 mm) of the compressor.
13 Maximum allowable dip in compressor discharge pipe/hose is one half the outer diameter of the pipe/hose. Preferred rout-
ing should have no dips in any of the routing. This is to avoid line blockage due to water collecting and freezing in the line.

Clipping Guidelines
Clipping brackets should be designed and mounted to adequately support the bundle. Clips should be mounted in a hanging
position or supported along three-quarters of the horizontal mounting surface. Orientations that do not conform to the illustrations shall be tested.
1 When hoses, wires, and cables cross one another, secure them with a clamp. This prevents the sawing motion that could
abrade them.
2 When routing flex hoses that are bent in two planes, clip them to prevent twisting. Clamp the hose at the point where the
hose changes planes. The clamp has the effect of dividing the hose into two assemblies. If the section of the hose is bent
in the same plane as the movement, the bend will absorb the movement and the hose will not twist.

Battery Cable Guidelines
The battery cable guidelines prevent electrical interference that can occur from improperly routed cables. In addition, the
guidelines prevent cable damage through abrasion.
1 Battery cables with standard SAE stranding shall be supported at 16 inches (400 mm) maximum intervals. A separator
type cable tie or an independent separator with cable tie may be used between clip points. No relative movement may occur between cables. If two (2) cable separators are used, they are to be installed equidistant from each other and arranged on a straight line, a maximum span between clip points of 24 inches (600 mm) may be used.
2 Strain relief clipping shall be provided for the battery and starter motor terminals. The strain relief clip shall be located with
no relative motion to the terminals. The strain relief clip should be located close to these terminals and shall be within 20
inch (500 mm) cable length to the starter terminals.
3 Grommets shall be installed at points where cables pass through sheet metal or frames.
4 Routing shall avoid exposed edges of frame members, abrasive surfaces, and all sharp edges. When routing inside the
frame, ensure that no contact with the frame is made with uncovered cables. Uncovered battery cables, external of the
battery box, shall be routed independent of all other conduits. Covered cables may be bundled with other similarly covered
conduits and air piping with a secured separator. Do not route with/under fuel lines.
5 Cables should be clipped as close as possible to all cable bends.
6 Battery cables shall not be located within 5 inches (130 mm) of engine exhaust related components or other heat sources
without heat coverings or heat shielding. Testing shall be performed to determine effects of closer allowances and the use
of heat shields. Battery cables should not be installed in any area directly above engine exhaust related components.
7 Where cables flex between moving parts, the last supporting clip shall be securely mounted such that relative movement
does not promote chaffing.
8 Battery cables shall not support any mechanical loads other than their own mass.
9 Minimum bend radii of battery cables should be 3 times the cable diameter for standard SAE strand cable.

Battery Guidelines, Continued
1 Star washers shall not be used on current path connections including grounds.
2 Asphalt type loom shall not be used for battery cable protection applications.
3 Battery cables shall not rub each other or surrounding items, but may touch when all items have no independent move-
ment. Uncovered battery cables may not touch each other outside the battery box.
4 All exposed exterior to cab circuit ends shall be coated with a dielectric protective coating. Thickness to be 0.13 – 0.3 in-
ches (3.5 – 7 mm) wet, full coverage, 3 inches (76.2 mm) diameter, or shall be completely covered with required inhibitor.
5 Clip orientations should be per illustration or installation drawings utilizing compression or heavy duty clip.
6 Plastic conduit may be bundled and cable tied with covered battery cables when all items have no independent movement
with each other. Battery cables may touch each other, plastic conduit or the battery, inside the battery box.
7 Covered battery cables may be securely tied or clamped to each other if no independent movement exists. Cables at-
tached to the same terminal stud may be tied or clamped to each other.
8 Battery cable ends at the starter motor posts should be installed and positioned first with the engine harness terminals as-
sembled after. Starter terminals that come with the starter may be first on the starter studs. Terminals shall not be re-configured or bent.
9 Frame bolt placement, adjacent to the battery box, should have the bolt or screw threaded end facing away from the bat-
tery box and any related cables. Wrench grip type bolts should not be used in the frame at the battery box area. Nonwrench grip type bolt or screw threaded ends may face toward the battery box only if clip bracketing or shielding shall be
provided to prevent any possible cable contact with frame mounted hardware. Bolts that mount the battery box to the
frame may be oriented toward the battery box.
10 Added abrasion protection should be used where the cable contacts other routed commodities or surfaces with no inde-
pendent movement such as frame rail surfaces or transmission and engine castings. Polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon
conduit and thick wall heat shrink tubing may be used for added abrasion protection.
11 Cables should be located to afford protection from road splash, stones, abrasion, grease, oil and fuel. Cables exposed to
such conditions should be further protected by either, or a combination of, the use of heavy wall thermoplastic insulated
cable, additional tape application, plastic sleeve or conduit.
12 Anytime an existing fastener is used to secure a clipping bracket (or any similar device), the fastener shall be re-torqued
to the value specified in the original documentation given for the fastener.
13 Each exposed exterior circuit end must be coated with a dielectric protective coating. Thickness to be 0.13 – 0.3 inches
14 Do not use box clamps to secure battery cables.
15 In addition to berringer clamps, use double-head tie clamps.
W3077595
Berringer clamps are recommended for securing battery cables to each other.

Body Builder Connectors, Schematic Examples
Third party devices are often installed on MACK trucks. These devices need information (vehicle speed, gear, etc.) to operate safely and efficiently. However these devices are not quality controlled as far as MACK is concerned, and are not part of
the main control databus. Therefore, MACK provides an external connector to supply a body device with the necessary information it needs to function properly.
MACK trucks do not use an external body builder module (BBM). In MACK trucks, the functions of the BBM are managed by
the Vehicle Electrical Control Unit (VECU) and are transmitted to the body device via an SAE J1939 connector. SAE J1939
is a communications link between standalone vehicle modules. This data link is commonly referred to as the “Control Data
link”. It is used primarily to transmit control signals that are shared between other standalone modules. The information on
the SAE J1939 control link is used for control functions. Fault messages or diagnostic information also transmits across this
link. These control signals may be for engine, transmission, brakes or a number of other vehicle control needs. The J1939
operates at 250,000 bits per second, which is approximately 26 times faster than the J1708/1587 data link. This higher speed
allows the system to operate at a faster sampling rate and higher resolution, thus enabling better control of vehicle functions.
Terminating Resistors
Terminating resistors are wired to each end of the SAE J1939 data link to prevent signal reflections. They must remain connected for the data link to function properly. The resistance value of each termination resistor is 110–130 Ω. When properly
installed in the data link, their combined resistance is 50–70 Ω since they are connected in parallel.
The termination resistor at one end of the SAE J1939 data link is located in the fuse/relay center (FRC) near the vehicle electronic control unit (VECU) and the other near the engine control module (ECM). On vehicles equipped with MACK engines,
the termination resistor at the engine end is located inside the ECM. On vehicles equipped with Cummins engine, the termination resistor is located in the harness area just outside of the ECM.
A SAE J1939 data link connection is located at the transmission area in the chassis harness. On vehicles equipped with an
electronically controlled transmission (Allison/Autoshift II/Meritor Freedom Line), the connection to the transmission is located at the chassis harness. On vehicles equipped with a manual non-electronically controlled transmission - the connector
stub will have an un-terminated blanking plug installed.
Only two termination resistors are used in each data link. Never install more than two terminator resistors in one data link. If
more than two resistors exist in the SAE J1939 data link circuit, incorrect or absent signals may occur. You can easily check
to see if you have two resistors by measuring the resistance between pin C and D for the 9-pin diagnostic connector, or pin 3
and 11 for the 16-pin diagnostic connector, with the ignition key in OFF position. The correct resistance is 50 – 70 Ω. The termination resistors should each have a resistance of 110 – 130 Ω when tested individually.

Electrical Wiring and Connections
Main Power and Starting Circuits
Figure 1 shows the starter circuits. Note that the EMS and VECU directly control the starter relay. The EMS inhibits starter
for engine running, starter overheat and PTO. The VECU inhibits the starter mainly for transmission in gear.
Figure 2 shows the main power circuits. Ignition and “EMS” power are controlled by the VECU through relays. “EMS” power
is connected after the key is turned on and remains on during crank and for some seconds after key off, mainly to service the
Engine Management System. Ignition power is similar, but is disconnected during crank and supplies items not necessary
for engine start. MACK conventional trucks actually have a second set of ignition circuits for items not normally needed for
driving (e.g. Sleeper) which also supplies one of the Granite BodyLink III power pins indicated in Figure 7. The first and second power relays are also shut off at low voltage. The first relay powers off at a lower threshold than the second.

Remote Engine Stop
If a chassis was ordered with “Remote Engine Stop”, a relay is pre-installed in the harness. Installation of the push button
switch is all that is required.
If installing “Remote Engine Stop” to a chassis (MRU / LR and Conventional Chassis’), relay P/N 25082390 must be installed
in addition to installing the push button switch. Only MRU and LR models are pre-wired for the Remote Engine Stop.
Note: For Remote Engine Stop to work you must run an accessory kit and P/N 85137397 reprogram the VECU (Can only be
done by a Dealer) and parameters need to be programmed. See “Remote Engine Stop” in the Body Builder, Parameter Programming service bulletin.
Note: The input to the VECU pin A27 (Green 30-way connector on VECU) is an active low digital input that must be attached
to an isolated signal ground.
DO NOT switch chassis/cab ground to pin A27 of the VECU. Interference from other components on the chassis/cab
ground could cause an engine shutdown when not requested by the body builder.
Note: The switching of ground to an input that carries a very low current requires special switching equipment. It is recommended using a switch with gold contacts, or a relay to switch the signal ground to Pin A27 of the VECU.
Gold resists corrosion on the contacts and relays have enough ‘swiping’ motion on the contacts to help keep them clean.

Adding Auxiliary Accelerator Pedal
Below is a suggestion for adding an auxiliary accelerator pedal, based on the Mack LR dual steering solution.
The pedal is wired in parallel using a multi-pin selector switch. If the signal is not switched between the two accelerator pedals, a fault code may be generated due to high current at the throttle pedal signal input line (VECU B-8).
Note: See data link system before using such a device.
Note: An identical pedal is needed for the auxiliary sensor accelerator pedal because it requires an IVS signal. A substitute
type pedal may cause a fault code and is not recommended.

BodyLink III
BodyLink III is the standard Mack Granite straight truck body builder electrical interface. It consists of a 29-pin electrical
quick-connector and grounding stud mounted just under the rear of the cab (near BOC). BodyLink III includes an electrical
pin-out label. Also available with BodyLink III is a cab pass-thru between the seats. Note that the carpeting or floor mate is
not cut at the factory to avoid unnecessary noise if not used. Also available is a ‘BodyLamp’ dash light to indicate typically
when the dump body is elevated. This lamp is activated via pin #17 when grounded. Also available with BodyLink III are assignable (can be labeled) dash switches. These switches output via pins 8 to 14 on the BodyLink III connector. A female connector and pins are included with BodyLink III, typically supplied in the cab with the sales and service literature packets.
Note: The BodyLink III BOC connector is supplied with the mating connector housing and terminal pins from the factory. If
additional pins or connectors are required they can be purchased from your local Mack Dealer. The connector housing is
25177195 and the terminal kit is 21750652.
