- QUICK DETECT: This ignition coil tester tool instantly detects ignition and spark plug problems. It can also test generators, fans, electric relays, emission gas control valves, fuel injectors, hall sensors, and more, making it ideal for detecting issues without removing components from the vehicle
- WIDE COMPATIBILITY: OBDEMOTO 101 automotive coil tester is suitable for most 12V gasoline vehicles, including cars, SUVs, RVs, trucks, motorcycles, and ATVs. Ideal for DIY testing or professional use
- LED DISPLAY & AUDIBLE CUEING: The spark tester automotive feature clear LED indicators and a buzzer, providing both visual and audible feedback on device status and electromagnetic field strength, helping you quickly detect equipment faults
- PORTABLE & ILLUMINATED DESIGN: This compact and lightweight pen-style spark plug tester and coil tester easily fits in your hand or tool bag, making it convenient to carry and use in confined engine compartments. The bright LED light is energy-efficient and highly visible in dark environments
- REPLACEABLE BATTERY & INDUSTRIAL GRADE MATERIALS: The simple and easy-to-use snap-on design allows for secure replacement of 2 AAA batteries in seconds. Replace and use immediately without interruption. Industrial-grade materials ensure a long lifespan for our spark checker
- 【Main Function】The OBDEMOTO 101 detector is using advanced technology from Germany, it can collect and analyze signals under non-dismantle automotive electrical parts. Testing results are showed by LED indicator and beeper.
- 【Easily Diagnose】Easy to know if there is faults of the automotive electronic parts. The beeping of the OBDEMOTO 101 is an indication that the component being tested is normal and not damaged or shorted or disconnected, conversely, no beeping during testing is an indication that the component is bad.
- 【Test Range】 Lgnition Coil(traditional coil,double spark coil,single spark coil) generator, fan,electric-magnetic valves,emission gas controlling value, fuel injectors,relay.etc.
- 【How to Use OBDEMOTO 101】1. Press the button to push it out and it will come out; 2. Find the correct position of the positive and negative battery terminals; 3. After the battery is installed,cover well and then push the button up to open; 4. Turn on and press the blue button to find the fault point. If you can't understand it,you can see the A+page.
- 【Car Manufacturer Warnings】1. To make Pen power signal detector test components, there will be a clignote LED and corresponding spoken language if park run very well; 2. With 2 different detectors on high sensitivity test can be power lines; 3. About a detector Pen line antenna to specific test results; 4. There are about detector Pen model overturned.Used for normal test, are being used to strong magnetic field test.
- Durable Material: This car ignition tester is made of plastic. Plastic materials have good impact resistance. Ignition testers made of these materials are more resistant to external shocks and vibrations, thus ensuring that they will work properly under daily use. Plastic material has a lower density and lighter mass, which makes the car ignition tester easy to carry and operate.
- Size Information: The dimensions of this car ignition tester are 8.27 x 4.33 x 1.18 inches, thus ensuring that it is both portable and flexible enough to maneuver in a variety of tight engine compartments. With the help of this tester, you will be able to easily understand whether there is any malfunction in your car's electronic components, it quickly provides you with clear and unambiguous feedback through precise testing and diagnosis.
- Wide Applicability: This automotive ignition tester is versatile and suitable for ignition coils (conventional coils, dual spark coils, single spark coils), generators, blowers, combination solenoids, exhaust gas control valves, injectors, relays, etc. The beeping sound of the MST-101 indicates that the component under test is normal and not damaged, shorted or disconnected. Conversely, no beeps during the test indicate a bad component.
- Practical Function: This automotive MST-101 tester uses advanced technology to capture and analyze signals under non-disassembled automotive electrical components. Without disassembling the car components, the test pen will collect and analyze the signals and display the test results through the LED indicator and buzzer, which can easily detect whether there is any fault in the car's electronic components.
- Convenient to Use: This car ignition tester is simple and easy to use. First of all, you should find the correct position of the positive and negative battery terminals and push the button to push it out. Next, you need to install the battery and cover it, and then press the button to open it. Finally, you just need to turn on the power and press the blue button to find the trouble spot.
- Connect the tool between the spark plug and the plug wire
- The short wire is double ended to offer a straight boot and a 90-degree boot on one tool.
- With the engine running, the tool flashes a mirror image of the ignition spark.
- Quickly diagnose problems with all ignition systems
- The Coil On Plug (COP) Quick Ignition tester is a battery-operated, hand-held quick tester and it is designed to easily and quickly determine if a COP is producing a proper spark for the plug
- The quick tester works by receiving a signal from the secondary ignition coil; Once the signal is received, the tester determines if the COP is producing the correct amount of voltage and the duration of the arc; If the voltage is correct, the tester beeps and the red LED light flashes; and if the duration of the arc is correct, the green LED will also flash
- Package Dimensions: 9.37 inch L x 3.86 inch W x 1.42 inch H
