Many thanks. One question; How to measure valve overlap?

Very useful information but unfortunately you're bringing some kind of bright light on the screen that makes the video vision unable to follow. If you kept the video away, it would've been a great one

Jesus Christ. That was a terrible video. Ran through it way too fast. Hard to understand.

What was the point of looking at the MAF while determining max bar output of the cylinder at WOT?

Cool

So this is telling me that combustion creates no pressure? That's dumb AF. I just missed this on an ASE test question.

thank for video

Why no new videos?

How does the software derives the charging percentage? Thanks for sharing this awesome info.👍🏾

thanks for video

how does the pico software/hardware determine what a good battery spec vs all the different types, sizes, and conditions/state batteries on the markets today? Is there an article I can read about the technical background of pico software-hardware under this circumstance of this pre battery test event(s), before the relative compression test(s).

Is it measuring the voltage drop?

I don't understand how to test and install them. Can you do a detailed video tutorial on how to test using it?

Hello, is there a way I can get a copy of the samples for this test? Thank you so much.

sorry- I commented before I watched video!!!!

great study,now demonstrate running compression sync to ignition timing to confirm ecm timing advance.

Picoautomotive, great video!!!!

But you program suggest to connect the wire to the alternator, and use the battery only of it's close to the alternator. I could not understand how"close" is, as for me- connecting to the battery caused an error message (turning on heavy battery consumers did not helped), and I don't have an easy access to my alternator terminals. BTW, what is the difference between this test and the relative compression test in terms of the received data? Why to do both is the Cylinder data seems to give the same data live?

Hey please make new videos Look how pretty are those of ScannerDanner

Great, concise video showing the fundamentals of in cylinder pressure diagnosis. 6 yrs old and as useful in 2018 as it was in 2012

So if this came in of the street which component is the prob because both are reading low ?

I'm presuming this is a multiplexed system. but what a complicated and impenetrable way of presenting it. I lost interest almost immediately. technology for the sake of it.. what IS the high frequency of the system ?. more RF radiation to kill people. what with WIFI and Bluetooth in cars at 2.4 GHZ (microwave ) in a metal box and what are you not supposed to put in a microwave? metal..! bouncing around in your metal car.. brings a whole new meaning the the term cooking model. AVOID AT ALL COSTS

I like doing a relative compression test using the amp clamp around battery positive or negative, you get a much better indication and along with a sync probe on cyl number one especially for 6 and 8 cyl engines

At what point does it call the ripple voltage too high? I find usually that a reading over 200mV is almost always a bad diode discharging the battery.

ahhh...what?

TBH, I didn't know what shit did you just talked about.

Is it just the test within pico diagnostic software that requires only voltage probes. Scanner dancers demo of Picoscope shows a current clamp being used. Is that just because he is using the pico automotive 6 software, and does it matter which method we use?

Does this also work on diesel engines ?

I'm a gearhead, old and relatively modern vehicles, mechanical and electrical are not a problem for me. Give me a diagram and i'll assemble a wire harness for a fuel injected engine without much grief.. But when it comes to this can-bus shit, I can't even begin to comprehend what it is, what its for, what it does, or how there could even be anything wrong with it. I just plain don't get it.

Wht good is this infor unless it's mechanic to mechanic tht hve all the gadgets u all have. How would a lay person with minimal tools (multimeter etc) test parts on a vehicle?

This is interesting, even to me, and I am just learning of the existence of CANbus technology today. But, you need to fill the video with the screen of your scope, and seriously increase the quality of the video, before this would be a useful video, in my opinion.

TO DAY IT IS NOT EASY TO CHECK A TWC CATALIZER

I HOPE TO SEE A CATALIZER TESTING WITH A PICOSCOPE

VERY NICE.......

You could get exactly the same battery and charging info from a cheap multimeter.

2000 Amp Clamp can not be selected anymore with the new software. Is there a solution ? Please Help.

where can i get that valve overlay tool for my pico ???

Where can I find more information about this? Also would like to download that waveform demo you posted.

need a closer up view of screen

The one fundamental problem with any bus based network is traffic. That is to say, the bus works well with small amounts of traffic, but as traffic levels increase, the performance of the network drops off rather dramatically. What's needed here is a can 'switch', which would intelligently direct the flow of traffic.

Nice

Can't wait to get this scope absolutely amazing capabilities

Well done video. Like the graphic on valve opening and closing. Do you have it as a downloadable graphic? Would like to show it to some of my helpers.

Great video, thank you.

Nice vid

hello pico; what kind of probe are you using? the one on 200ms thank you

IT IS TOO BAD, IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL! This is what it sold me I just got my pico and very frustrated called the company and they just told me that this function does not work anymore, and there was no solution for that. VERY BAD.

I miss a bad MAF signal in this video due to an faulty MAF Sensor...here I just see what happens if the are fouts in the subsystems. But great info with 4.5 Volts

Great video thank you!

Thanks, in your video, for channel A you are connecting to battery + and will you get alternator ripple from channel A, or you have to use different channel in pico let say B to connect to alternator + wire to get RPM. pls advise.
