MATCO truck got me today while at work. Sometimes he has goodies, and sometimes not. Today, he surprised me. I had to have it especially with the electrical diagnostics I have to do sometimes. Especially with miles of ABS wires.





PP319FTCRED - Power Probe III w/Case

Very nice- never saw a electrical tool like that before. why the cigarette lighter adapter, power source?

Yes, it requires a power source. Either straight from the battery or from the cig lighter. This is setup for a reason. If you notice the rocker switch on the device, if you push the switch to +, the main probe will turn into 12+. If you switch it to - the probe will now become 12-. This is so you can poke into devices such as fan relays or light sockets and provide power as you need it to test the device.

A few videos lurk on Youtube...

Another tech. here has an older Snap-on version. Really nice to have, tests complete circuits in minutes. My next tool for sure.
