Warning:
When testing a system in a car/truck, the vehicle must be on a flat, dry surface. The
transmission must be in park and the emergency brake engaged.
Connect the Red Clamp (+) to the positive (+) terminal post on the battery. Connect the
Black Clamp (-) to the negative (-) terminal post on the battery.
Check the Battery Tester LED Window (See FIGURE 1) to determine effectiveness of
charge. If the Battery Tester does not register and no display is seen, double check that
the clamps are connected to the proper terminal posts. Make certain a clean connection
has been made between the clamps and terminal posts.
Start the engine and let it run. Without using the Load Switch, observe the voltage
readout when the engine speed reaches between 1200 to 1500 RPM.
Determine the condition of the loading system on the basis of the table:
STARTER CHECK-UP
1. For this check-up, the engine has to be in working temperature and the battery has to
be in perfect condition.
2. Connect the red clamp to the positive terminal and the black clamp with the negative
terminal.
3. Run a stress test.
4. Monitor the measured voltage during the test.
5. If the voltage keeps decreasing after approx. 10 sec., this check-up is not available.
6. Take notes of the measured voltage, if it levels at a particular reading after approx. 10
sec. Caution: Do not operate the load switch during the next step(step 7).
7. Start your vehicle (a second person is necessary) and compare the measured voltage
during the start with the measurement from step 6.
EXAMPLE
• If you read a stress test measurement of approx. 10.4V (step 6) and a
measurement of 8.2V while starting your vehicle, there is no problem with your
ignition system.
• In case of a lower reading than 8.2V, your ignition system is malfunctioning.
