POWER LEAD fEATURE (SEE fIG.6).
WARNING!
Haphazardly applying voltage to certain circuits can cause damage to
a vehicles electronic components. Therefore it is strongly advised to use the correct
wiring diagram and diagnosing procedure whilst performing tests.
3.8.1.
The black clamp and the auxiliary ground lead are connected through the unit. By
leaving the red clip disconnected from the vehicles battery, the unit can be used as a
long power lead.
3.8.2.
Be careful to avoid short circuits and overloading when using this power lead
function. In this configuration the leads are not protected by the units circuit breaker.
3.9.
ACTIVATING COMPONENTS WITH A PO) VOLTAGE WITHIN THE
VEHICLE’S ELECTRICAL SySTEM (See fig.7).
3.9.1.
Contact the probe tip to the positive terminal of the component, the led indicator
should light GReen. Whilst keeping an eye on the green indicator, quickly rock the
power switch forwards to the single bar position and release it. If the green indicator
changes instantly from GReen to Red, you may proceed with further activation.
3.9.2.
If the green indicator went off at that instant or if the unit sounds, the unit has been overloaded. This could happen for the following
reasons.
a) Where the tip of the tester has contacted is a direct ground or a negative voltage.
b) The component is short circuited.
c) The component requires a high amperage (e.g. a starter motor).
3.10.
ACTIVATING COMPONENTS WITH A NEGATIVE(-) VOLTAGE WITHIN THE VEHICLE’S ELECTRICAL SySTEM (See fig.8).
3.10.1. Contact the probe tip to the negative terminal of the component, the led indicator should light Red. Whilst keeping an eye on the red
indicator, quickly rock the power switch backwards to the double bar position and release it. If the red indicator changes instantly from
Red to GReen, you may proceed with further activation.
3.10.2. I
f the red indicator went off at that instant or if the unit sounds, the unit has been overloaded. This could happen for the following
reasons.
a) Where the tip of the tester has contacted is a direct positive voltage.
b) The component is short circuited.
c) The component requires a high amperage (e.g. a starter motor).
WARNING!
With this function a vehicle’s fuse can be blown or tripped if grounding the contact is in series with it.
3.11.
TESTING TRAILER LAMPS AND CONNECTIONS
3.11.1. Connect the unit to a battery of the correct voltage.
3.11.2. Attach the auxiliary ground lead to the trailer ground.
3.11.3. Probe the contacts of the towing electrical connector whilst rocking the power switch to the forward single bar position. This lets you
check the function and orientation of the trailer lights. (See Fig.9).
