Thank you for this excellent video, Pete. I have watched a lot of scope usage and purchased a Micsig Automotive Scope a couple weeks ago. I've only played around with it a little but have time now to connect, adjust, and begin to truly understand the functionality.

I've never been that guy who screams about being the first to comment on a video but since the first comment was a spammer I'll just say that I'm the "FIRST REAL COMMENT!"

[@gora876]

You need to zoom in on the screen for viewers to understand what’s happening. No point point having the camera on you or the screen 10 feet away.

The X axis is the horizontal one and the Y axis the vertical one.....ooops

[@djwilson48625]

Also, the Hantek TO1112 is a nice cheap option.

Hello , I have Honda Accord 2008 I went to the dealer and they told me update the PCM , the code is P0339 Crankshaft Position Sensor "A" Circuit Intermittent , sometimes when you starter the vehicle check engine going on with VSA, nothing different after update , already replaced the crank shaft , the problem is still , I try to take off the cable from cam shaft sensor and I drive the car. It's nothing gonna be happen no a check engine going on , the pcm has been delay to see I take of the jack from the sensor so what do you think the problem? Thank you.😂

[@MotorAgeMagazine]

Sorry for the delay in replying to you. This code could indicate a problem in the wiring, a loose connection or bad pin fit at the sensor or the ECM. I would use a scope to monitor the signal as I twist the wiring around.

[@mohamadkilani2599]

@@MotorAgeMagazine thank you the problem is the ignition coil I fix it.

[@dynamiceq7215]

Do you need an automotive scope or can you use a conventional bench top oscilloscope? How do they differ? I would imagine that a specialized automotive scope is easier to work with, but I already have a electronics scope how can I use it to best advantage.

[@MotorAgeMagazine]

Sure, I don't see any reason why not. It just may not have all the bells and whistles that one dedicated to automotive testing may have. Watch those input voltages!

Thanks impressed explained

Just purchased my first scope. It's the snap on zeus scanner with the four channel lab scope. Thanks for providing these videos for us.

[@RobertBee-fs8hv]

The resolution of the oscilloscope is poor due to yhe camera view including your We only need to see the oscilloscope screen and your hand and finger . I need to see the control labeling on the scope screen but its all fuzzy due to the poor resulution Remove your person from the view to concentrate on the scope screen

[@louiscates6975]

Very helpful video. Thanks

[@mikechiodetti4482]

This is a really quick intro into what a scope can do, but believe me, once you really start using one, you might get to be like Bernie Thompson from ATS (Pete was showing the ATS scope that Bernie helped to build). The pocket scope Pete was showing will give you a great start. Once you use a 4 or 8 channel scope, you'll really like what it can do.

[@ItsJusHP]

Thank you 🔥

[@abdulali46]

Great job Pete

Благодарю вас!

[@theelectronicsdepot4600]

CAN YOU GIVE AN IDEA OF WHICH SCANNER TO START WITH XTOOL ,ALTELL ,SNAPON

[@MotorAgeMagazine]

That's a loaded question. It's a matter of how much tool do you need, your budget, and what your personal preferences may be. Do you need a tool that covers multiple makes? Are you working on just drivability issues or do you also get involved with body systems?

[@Fireneedsair]

@@MotorAgeMagazine ok. Can recommend one if I’m only using it on one car? Just a simple starter one that can measure injectors and fuel pumps etc..thx
