IPA’s Mobile Universal Trailer Tester (MUTT) has been unveiled to support one-man troubleshooting and inspections on all types of trailers, the company says.

Integrated into service trucks, MUTT identifies short, crossed and open circuits, and differentiates between poor wires and chassis grounds. It both displays amperage and offers audio feedback.

Available 12-button and three-button remote controls allow techs to apply air brakes from the rear of a trailer while performing visual and mechanical inspections. Antilock Braking System codes can be pulled from most systems using a blink code accessed through the control panel.

The locations of input and output connectors can be modified at the factory for customized service trucks, and come with a three-year warranty.
