Electronic Specialties introduces a new product, the #180 LOADpro Dynamic Test Leads. These test leads allow you to instantly load the circuit to see if current can flow. LOADpro leads were designed specifically for finding wiring faults in automotive and heavy-duty vehicles and equipment. LOADpro test leads work with almost any Digtial Multimeter.
This is the only OEM/manufacturer approved tool that can locate corrosion in wiring with a digital voltmeter. By loading the circuit, LOADpro makes a voltage drop test “on the fly”. Just press the switch – the test results can not lie.
This simple test finds problems in corroded wires/connections and shorts to ground. Using LOADpro with your multimeter and following our test method will find wiring faults quicker and will save time and effort. This product improves diagnostic efficiency.
LOADpro finds these problems quicker:
High Corrosive Resistance;
Shorts to Ground; and
Open Circuits.
The process is very simple – just read voltage. It’s that easy, really. If a vehicle component is inoperable, just unplug the connector. Read voltage at the connector. Do you see 12 volts? If yes, press the LOADpro switch if the voltage remains, the wiring is good go on to something else. If the voltage drops the circuit has high resistance… i.e.- corroded wiring or connections. If you see no voltage initially, you have an open or short to ground.
LOADpro Test Leads also feature SteadyPin Probe Tips. Instead of a pointed probe, SteadyPin tips have a small recess at the tip that allows the probe to sit firmly on a male ECM or connector pin. Traditional pointed probes fail to give an effective connection and creates difficulties in completing manufacturer spedific voltmeter tests.
The test procedure is posted at www.esitest.com and Youtube, for everyone’s full access.
