Thexton Back Probe Kit (490)

The Thexton Back Probe Kit (490) is an essential tool for professional automotive technicians and serious DIY mechanics who perform electrical diagnostics. It is designed to test live circuits without damaging a vehicle's wiring or disconnecting connectors. By sliding a fine probe along the wire and into the back of the connector, it makes contact with the metal terminal, allowing accurate measurements with a multimeter. This non-intrusive method keeps the circuit intact and under load, which is crucial for diagnosing intermittent faults. Its simple, effective design saves time and prevents costly damage to wiring harnesses, preserving vehicle integrity and avoiding unnecessary repairs.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Provides a non-destructive way to test electrical circuits, maintaining the integrity of a vehicle's wiring harness.
• Pin-type probes slide into the back of connectors, making contact without damaging insulation.
• Allows accurate readings of voltage, current, or signal from a live circuit.
• Includes 20 pin-type probes in five different colors for organization and identification.
• Ideal for diagnosing complex electrical issues without cutting, splicing, or compromising wires.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Product type: Automotive electrical diagnostic tool
• Included in the box: 20 pin-type back probes (5 of each color)
• Design: Sharp, fine tips for easy insertion into connectors
• Application: Suitable for automotive sensors, control modules, and wiring harnesses

HOW TO USE:

1. Select the correct probe: Choose a probe suitable for the size of the wire and terminal.
2. Locate the test point: Identify the specific wire to be tested, typically connected to a sensor or ECU.
3. Insert the probe: Slide the fine probe along the wire into the back of the connector until it contacts the terminal pin.
4. Connect your meter: Attach the multimeter lead to the back probe.
5. Take the measurement: With the multimeter set correctly, record the reading while the circuit remains live and under load.
