LAUNCH KES-200 Cylinder Analysis
G-12
Cylinder Efficiency
Compared with the power balance test, cylinder
efficiency test doesn’t need cylinder cutoff, so
the exhaust temperature won’t exceed
specifications, and the catalyst poisoning won’t
happen. It is an ideal tool for the vehicles with
electronic fuel injection system.
Note:
Cylinder efficiency test is only applicable to
engines with 6 cylinders or less.
Units and Parts Required
To perform the cylinder efficiency test, the
following units are required:
z
KES-200 main unit (1pcs)
z
Engine analysis cartridge(1pcs)
z
Main cable(1pcs)
z
Cigarette lighter cable or battery
cable(1pcs)
z
Cylinder 1 signal cable(1pcs)
z
Cylinder disabling cable(1pcs)
Connection
Refer to Fig.7-25 for connection of the test
cables.

Distributor
1.
Insert the Engine analysis cartridge into
the cartridge slot of KES-200 main unit.
2.
Power the main unit from the battery or
the cigarette lighter.
3.
Connect one end of the cylinder 1 signal
cable to channel 3 of KES-200, and the
other end (with cylinder 1 signal clamp) to
the high-tension cable of cylinder 1 on
vehicle (
Note: Let the side printed “plug
side” towards the spark plug
).
4.
Connect the end with clamp of the cylinder
disabling cable to the primary ignition coil
(
Note: red to positive pole and black to
negative pole),
and the end with 15PIN
male connector to the main cable.
Connect the other end of the main cable to
the “main cable” interface of KES-200
main unit.
Note:
♦
Make sure to start the engine after cable
connection.
♦
Do not touch the probe during testing,
for it has very high voltage.
♦
Cylinder test cannot be performed if the
connection is wrong.
Operation Procedures
On the start interface, press any key (except
[Reset], [Power] and [Exit]), the screen will
display the main menu as shown in Fig.7-26.
