Review: So I bought this to trace a faulty lead back to my ECU, The product looks very robust in the picture but turned out to be regular flimsy plastic. Getting the battery in the probe was a particular nightmare as the fitting is too tight and the leads too short and not having the dexterity of a concert pianist or surgeon I was lucky not to brake the thing before even using it. I followed what little instructions there are but after an hours worth of trying could not get the thing to trace a cable, it just kept ringing wherever it happened to be pointing, you could point this thing at a bucket of blancmange an it would ring indicating a cable. What really annoyed me was that I thought I'd purchased one of the better quality ones but the lesson here is that, just because it's yellow does not mean Dewalt quality. I don't know if I can send it back as I've tried using it but it certainly didn't do what it said on the tin. Review: found two broken wires on a 2020 Western star within two minutes. in shop time, it would have been min 3 hours labor. ## Features - Non-contact probe audibly identifies selected wire or cable - Trace phone, computer network and coax cables - Tone generator is terminated with RJ11 and RJ45 connectors plus alligator clips - Selectable continuous or variable tone - Continuity and ring/tip identification test ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00023RVNO | | ASIN | B00023RVNO | | Batteries | 1 Product Specific batteries required.

Turn it on. Turn on the probe and check that the toner is working. Go go to NID, where all the house wiring starts. The tone can be hear is you are near the wire, louder on the outside of the cable, very loud when actually touch the correct pair of wires. **Q: Is it easy for a beginner to use? Does it easily hook up to the wire or do I need to cut into the plastic surrounding the wire?** A: It's easy to connect and you don't need to cut into the insulator, but the problem I had with the tool is: the signal is so sensitive that I wasn't able to tell if the wire was cut, because all the wires I was testing were in a harness **Q: How many feet will this work for?** A: i was using it very successfully at over 70 feet. The lines I was tracing were up and over in a building. So i really do not know the exact distance. but it worked great ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐ Review *by M***N on 8 August 2014* So I bought this to trace a faulty lead back to my ECU, The product looks very robust in the picture but turned out to be regular flimsy plastic.
