I'm often asked - what is the best diagnostic tool?! Most people expect a reply where I suggest some sort of OBD scan tool that does it all! Actually, I believe the multimeter is the best diagnostic tool, however, it's very important you know how to use it correctly!

In this full multimeter training video, we show you how to make the most of your tool for automotive diagnostics. We check each feature and looks at tests like: voltage drop measurement, ground testing, alternator ripple test, fuse volt drop testing, parasitic battery drain, frequency testing and even an air conditioning efficiency test.
