Open circuit (car)
Slide the switch on the transmitter to the "TONE" position.
Switch on the receiver by turning the rotary switch to the middle position.
Place the sensor near the connection cables of the transmitter. As the sensor approaches the
connection cable of the transmitter, the volume of the signal at the receiver will increase.
If the ambient noise level exceeds the signal, connect headphones or earphones to the bottom of
the transmitter.
Connect the black terminal to a ground point or to the positive pole of the battery and the red
terminal to the conductor to be tested.
Press and hold the measurement key on the receiver and follow the signal and thus the cable
with the sensor. At the point where the signal stops, you will find the open circuit.

Cable detection (car)
Slide the switch on the transmitter to the "TONE" position.
Switch on the receiver by turning the rotary switch to the middle position.
Place the sensor near the connection cables of the transmitter. As the sensor approaches the
connection cable of the transmitter, the volume of the signal at the receiver will increase.
If the ambient noise level exceeds the signal, connect headphones or earphones to the bottom of
the transmitter.
Connect the black terminal to the positive pole of the battery and the red terminal to the conductor
to be found.
While holding down the measurement key, search for the wire in demand with the receiver at the
assumed locations. If the signal indicates a wire bundle, expand the bundle so that you can check
the individual wires with the sensor. It may be necessary to reduce the sensitivity at the receiver
to a minimum in order to enable accurate wire detection.
