Caterpillar Machine Power Shift Pressure Test by CAT ET 2024A
CAT ET 2024A Power Shift Pressure Test function checks whether that the proportional reducing valve is activating with a current signal from the controller.

Begin Sweep – Click this button to sweep pressure through the range automatically. The sweeping continues back and forth until the End Sweep button is clicked
End Sweep – Click this button to stop the sweeping of pressure and/or the engine speed.
