Sensor Simulator Tester (SST^TM)

No. OTC 3570 - Sensor Simulator Tester

Sensor Simulator Tester

On-board computer testers read trouble codes and pick up information from the car's engine computer. Sensors in the engine provide the information to the computer, and to pinpoint a service problem you need to read the sensor.

The SSTTM Sensor Simulator Tester picks up a service problem where the on-board computer's diagnosis ends. Sensors tell the on-board computer something is wrong. SST lets the technician decide if the faulty operation is actually the sensor itself or a wiring problem.

Determine if a sensor is working. Exercise the limits of a sensor circuit by simulation without having to achieve the real condition of the engine. Detect short circuits with built-in continuity test that beeps and lights an LED. Verify correct sensor operation the quick and simple way. Simulate these important sensors in all modern automobiles such as: Oxygen (rich and lean), Knock, Mass air flow, Manifold air pressure, Barometric pressure, Variable resistance type like coolant or manifold air temperature sensors (15 to 90,000 ohms), Three-wire type like a throttle position sensor (0 to 5 volts).

Completely portable, SST uses a self-contained standard 9-volt battery. Protected from accidental high voltage discharges. SST comes with a sensor connector probe, sensor cable clip, ground clip, durable carrying case, operator's manual, and a three-year warranty. Weight 2 lbs., 11 oz.
