3.6 Test Leads and Accessories
Some of the leads, probes and adapters supplied with or that may be available, are
explained in the following section.
NOTE
Not all test leads and/or accessories may be available in all markets. Contact
your sales representative for information, or to find out more about these and
other available accessories.
IMPORTANT
Avoid damaging test leads, do not pull on the wire when removing the
leads from their jacks. Pull only on the lead terminal end.
3.6.1 Channel 1 Lead
The shielded yellow lead is used with channel 1, and is color matched with the
channel 1 jack on the diagnostic tool.
Figure 3-1
Yellow Channel 1 Lead
This lead also includes two black, right-angle common ground plugs. One plug is
standard and the other is stackable. The standard ground plug should always be
connected to the ground (GND) jack on the diagnostic tool.
The stackable ground plug is used for connecting additional ground leads, such as
the Channel 2 or the Secondary Coil Adapter lead grounds. The stackable ground
lead is internally connected to the standard ground lead, therefore it does not need
to be connected to the diagnostic tool ground jack.
3.6.2 Channel 2 Lead
The shielded green lead is used with channel 2, and is color matched with the
channel 2 jack on the diagnostic tool. This lead also includes a black, right-angle
stackable ground plug.
