how to find an open/short super easy and quick

[@JrSpitty]

great of direct opens. not so great for pinched wires or intermittent faults. always best to do resistance checks while wiggling the harness at various locations.

[@lcpd26]

True however you don't know the exact location of the problem in the wiring... Meaning that even if you wiggle wiring many times you don't know where, this helps allot getting a more precise location and wiggling same time.. You should check ohm resistance and wiggle it in general you might get lucky to break the circuit and same time use this Example you have harness that are behind dashboard... Can't wiggle them easily enough, mouse might have eaten it, you would need to take dashboard out, with this tool only cluster and radio out and you can find it precisely...

Check for voltage drop

awesome mechanic& job.

Looks like the wire was cut. But also demonstrates that the tool works. I'm skeptical on how accurate this is when there is a small break in the wire but the insulation is still intact. I've found several wiring problems after hours of looking that no tool would pin point.

[@ZoidZoidZoidberg]

It makes the wire into an antenna - the insulation doesn't help/hinder with radiation from the wire. I think partial breaks or breaks that only open up at certain angles will be a pain though :)

So far ive only seen tutorials in open area access. Never in the cabin , under dash.

How do u use it on short?😊

[@mzolisigotyi5832]

I'm in south africa, can I get one here too ?

Greetings: Ujunk so entertaining. In reading these comments; Of the many, it seems most most have little or no electronics / electrical knowledge, far less of the tool. Many of my repairs R that from most who think they know something, yet prove 2 have little respect and knowledge of the task. Those that have the overpriced toys, help my business.

[@nwmartinzz]

Great tool, but the problem that I have is the receiver too big if only the antenna be longer & flexible

Just got mines yesterday, so stoked

[@Jeezy11]

Dang now that’s a good tool

[@ricardomartinez-nm3ex]

I have it and I love it really great tool to have

[@Elcopaneco1005]

Me puedes dar la información donde lo puedo conseguir gracias

[@nitrous07me]

Faster then just doing an overlay the the sensor/part back to the module?🤔

[@jklcksmth1991bo]

Whats thr name of that tool?

[@coryjackson3993]

Did you unplug the computer to keep from shorting it out?

[@danthecarman8440]

You have to know the wiring and disconnect both ends because the tool inputs a voltage and can damage control units.

[@BatGS]

Greetings: The tool outputs insignificant current. Therefore it cannot "short" components. However, it is recommended 2 use it open-ended.

That tool doesn't work all that great unless you have a obvious break or short. For an open it's not all that great. Instructions don't even say if the power needs to be cut or not... Either way it is hit or miss...

[@kylen1922]

I thought the same thing untill I figured out how to lock the signal in. The instructions don't really explain this well.
