Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit While the circuit probein this mode, contact the probe tip to a circuit, then the LCD display will read the DC voltage with a resolution of 0.1 volt. (Figure 2) 12.1V Figure 2 AC voltage While the circuit probe in this mode, contact the probe tip to a circuit, then the LCD display will read the Max.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit 1.2K Figure 4 Diode In this mode, the probe tip contact the positive terminal of the diode, connect the auxiliary ground lead to the negative terminal of the diode, the screen will display the forward voltage drop, indicates the forward bias.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit 3.2 Continuity Testing While the circuit probeis in Resistance mode, using the probe tip and the auxiliary ground lead, continuity can be tested on wires and components attached or disconnected from the vehide's electrical system. When the probe tip is contacting a good ground, the LCD will indicate “0.0Ω”...
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit If the resistance value is greater than 100KΩ, the LCD will show “0L”. There is also another way to prove continuity of connections to ground or battery.Power up the connection using the power switch. If the circuit breaker trips, you have a good solid low resistance connection.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit the green LED should light up, indicating continuity through the component. While keeping an eye on the green LED, quickly press and release the power switch forward. If the green LED went out and the red LED came on, you may proceed with further activation. Push the power switch forward and hold it down to provide power to your component.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit While the circuit probe in DC Voltage mode, contact the probe tip to the positive terminal of the component, the green LED should light up, indicating continuity to ground. While observing the green LED. Quickly press the power switch button forward and release, if the green LED went out and the red LED comes on, you may proceed with further activation.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit When the tool in DC Voltage mode, clip the auxiliary ground lead to the trailer ground, probe the contacts at the jack and then apply voltage to the probe tip. This allows you check the function and orientation of the connector and trailer lights.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit Figure 14 WARNING: With this function, if you are contacting a protected circuit, a vehicle’s fuse can be blown or tripped if you apply ground to it. 3.8 Red/Green Polarity LED The Red/Green Polarity LED lights up when the probe tip voltage matches the battery within ±0.4 volts.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit 3.9 Following & Locating Short Circuits In most cases a short circuit wil appear by a fuse or a fusible link blowing or an electrical protection device tripping (i.e., a circuit breaker). This is the best place to begin the search. Remove the blown fuse from the fuse box.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit 5. Circuit Breaker Finder Knowledge Is circuit breaker finder computer and air bag safe? The circuit breaker finder LED and LCD pull no more than 1 millamp of current, therefore when using it as a test light or multimeter it is computer and airbag safe. However, pressing the power switch is a different story.
Automotive Circuit Probe & Breaker Finder Kit 6.3 Breaker Finder Operation Guide With the probe kit connected to power, select Mode II on the tool kit working mode switch button. Switch on the breaker finder and set the rotary switch to the middle position. Press and hold the TEST button, and move the black probe tip along the wire you want to test.
