Intro to the Snap-On Lab Scope

[@albertsautodiagnosticsllc2130]

Man I wish this video was around when I was teaching myself to use my scope..great content

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

Thank you sir!

[@iam1smiley1]

I've been watching all kinds of videos but you're the first one to show me how too actually hook the leads to the Modis scope we recently got :) Thanks from a lady viewer and I sure dig the multi ground setup....more things needing to buy 😄

[@OutdoorTech79]

This is such an awesome video for us first time scope guys I can’t wait to see more videos that you make!!! This makes it simple to understand and learn. Also can’t wait for your meter leads to be back in stock I want 4 channel shielded.

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

Hello sir, we usually keep them in stock. Also thank you for the kind words. www.jarheaddiag.com/shop/p/warwick-test-supplies-snapn-on-scope-leads

[@judgedead7182]

for somone who picked up a 2nd hand verus pro (very cheap!) mainly for the scope to start learning this video was brilliant i do agree only fault on this scope is the zooming feature.

[@jerrodwristen2782]

I'm going to have to watch this more than once and I hope he's got more videos

[@edwincolar7646]

thank you i just purchased my versus and I'm a little green for use i will keep following you to help me on my way to understanding the tool

[@geraldhenke]

thank you, im a pico user, but the shop down the road wants to learn but has a snaop on zeus, so i sent him the link so he can learn to use his tool, so i can help him on setup

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

That’s what it’s all about. Helping the other person, this raises our industry more than anything else. And don’t worry, I’ll be doing one on the pico as well.

[@bernardocisneros4402]

Great video! It answered a lot of the questions I had. Thanks!

[@jgeorges3061]

Brandon, thanks for information i think a lot of techs could learn a lot from ur channel one thing i want to add the AC coupling when we used the system take the DC out of the picture and show us only AC signal as u now when we do relative compression or checking the fuel pump and so on and keep it up . cheeeeers

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

Thanks for the input! There are tons of different uses for the ac coupling. Relative compression being the biggest, or ac ripple testing an alternator.

[@markjohnson8162]

Credit to you, there’s so much helpful information in this video

[@trublue2319]

Great video finally watched it all the way threw learned something since the scope belongs to the shop can play with the scope like if it was mine , diag every day ese

[@ronnorthern]

Interesting video, just started a 2109 F350 flood vehicle, someone else has already messed with it and swapped a uswd Body Control Module in which activated the anti theft mode and locked everything down. we are finding modules with corrosion and nor need to figure ouit which modules are stopping the gateway communications and preventing reflashing with 'as built' data. this is a start to what may be a long journey.

That one is from Snap-On. But they can sometimes be hard to get. We offer the one from ATS, if you want to reach out to us on our site, we can get you a quote.

[@patrioticimmigrant8817]

I have a Tritan D10. This was very helpful. Thanks

[@DependableAutoTruck]

thanks been needing this helps a lot. i use the vantage legend i can see looks mostly the same small differences.

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

Vantage legend is a great scope, very similar to the vantage ultra I had at the beginning of the video. The locations of each feature might be different between the Verus edge and the Vantage Legend, but they should still all be there.

[@DD-gd3fr]

Thanks you for your Training Vid , I am new to Oscilloscopes and I just purchased a (USED)Modis Edge. Please tell me or link me to where I can buy that automotive training board that you used in this Vid.

[@acalendrillo]

Great video . I just bought a verus edge and I have never used a scope before . I was wondering before I play around with it if anyone can tell me if you are supposed to just lay the alligator clips over the wire or are you supposed to actually squeeze the alligator clips so they Pierce into the wire

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

You only use the alligator clips to connect to metal surfaces. If you need to probe in to a specific wire, you will need piercing probes and back probes. www.jarheaddiag.com/shop/p/flexprobes www.jarheaddiag.com/shop/p/w3nkgxn4390jnsjbb0bbnq32cs8c9d

[@timothydenette6735]

Great video! Which pressure transducer do you recommend for in cylinder pressure testing with the Verus Edge?

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

The ATS 500 psi transducer works well with the Snap-On scopes and even calibrated with the software. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKK3lmOrpLt2aKs

Hi, I have a Modis Ultra with 50 V AC and 75 V DC with a 2-chanel-scope. I have heard, that I can still measure the ignition primary voltage without an attenuator....is that right? Thank you for your answer. Great video!

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

Per the Snap-on website, that scope has a 400v input range. www.snapon.com/EN/US/Diagnostics/Products/MODIS-Ultra

[@rqvillanueva74]

What do you think about compatibility of other after market probes?I have a versus and a snap in amp clamp. I recently purchased a otc and a hanger capacitive pick up probe/wand and having a hard time getting a good secondary wave. What are your experiences with aftermarket probes? Great video by the way, I have learned more about my snap on from your video than from the official snap on training videos... thank you

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

For a secondary wand, some coils will show up and some will not. Depends on if they’re shielded or not. Try on different vehicles. Also play with time base and voltage. You should be reading in the mv amount.

[@toyonima]

Thanks for this video

[@davidbauld5800]

Thanks Brandon! There are a lot of mechanics that are getting left in the dust. They need to become techs. Things like this are very helpful. BTW, where did you get the shielded leads? Davie

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

Thank you sir! In today’s age, technicians now more than ever need to step their game up. With the advancement in vehicle technology, we need to raise to the occasion. As far as the leads, we have some on our website. Click any of the links above, and you can find them.

[@nathanquinn1959]

Instablaster.

[@renefuller9241]

On your table in the bottom right-hand corner, closest to the camera, there is a Snap-On signal generator. That is probably the most useful tool to learn about how to use a scope and what the signal should look like. Where can I find one? Hopefully it doesn't fall into the Snap-On price range. Or does it come with the purchase of one of the Snap-On scopes only?

[@myles6026]

Brandon, What training board are you using & which ones to you suggest? Thx.

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

The one we have is the Snap-On one. But that one is sometimes difficult to get a hold of. We offer the ATS training board. If you want some info on that, shoot us an email [e-mail].

I do have a verus pro however I don’t have idea on how to use this scope

[@josaksupport5138]

Hello Jarhead, please what is the best snap on lab scope to buy

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

All of the Snap-On scopes in their current line up are the same. The only difference is two channels and 4 channels.

[@stevennahulak6696]

Have a question. On my Snap-On scope Verus Edge, the yellow lead has two leads on one end and three on the other. What's that for and how do you hook them up? Also, when do you use the shielded leads verus the non-shielded leads? Thanks

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

The yellow and black is the channel one lead and scope ground. The channel 2 lead hooks to the ground on the scope to shield the lead.

[@lameckarika1949]

Thank you!

[@jaxxhaggard2306]

What leads do you have? Just purchased the vantage legend. Also does snap on sell amp clamps for parasitic draw.

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

The leads we use are from Warwick TS which we have on our site. As far as amp clamps, Snap-On does offer them. But for the price of one from them, you can buy a high and low amp from us. www.jarheaddiag.com

[@Eddiemac8343]

[@colemanbonner]

The snap-on factory yellow and green leads come with shielding and dedicated grounds. The red and blue do not. Honestly they’re not bad, especially for the level of precision required in automotive. When they get worn and the resistance grows, I’ll definitely replace them with something from ES.

[@JarheadDiagnostics]

True, unless your checking for injectors and channels 3&4 bleed over to the other channels since they’re not shielded.

[@colemanbonner]

@@JarheadDiagnostics you’re 100% correct, but so far I haven’t run into a situation where I can’t find an injector fault by simply comparing two. Plus, your snap-on rep will happily sell you some additional overpriced shielded yellow and green leads. Lol.
