OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BATTERY TEST
1. Before you test a battery in a vehicle, turn off the
ignition, all accessories and loads. Close all the
vehicle doors and the trunk lid.
2. Determine which post of the battery is grounded
(connected) to the chassis. Connect NEGATIVE
(black) clip to vehicle chassis or engine block away
from the battery. Connect POSITIVE (red) clip from
battery tester to POSITIVE (POS, P, +) ungrounded
post of battery. Do not connect clip to carburetor,
fuel lines, or sheet metal body parts. Connect to
a heavy gauge metal part of the frame or engine
block.
NOTE: When disconnecting, remove clip from
vehicle chassis FIRST, then remove the clip from
the battery terminal.

to the next step.
NOTE: the Tester will judge the battery status &
decide whether to show this Step or not, it doesn’t
appear every time.
9. When the test is completed, the display shows the
actual available CCA. Press the “◀ ◀” button to see
the SOH (STATE OF HEALTH) as a percentage. The
test results are as following:
a. “GOOD PASS”
The battery is good and capable of holding a
charge.
b. “GOOD RECHARGE”
The battery is good but needs to be recharged.
c. “RECHARGE RETEST”
Battery is discharged, the battery condition cannot
be determined until it is fully charged. Recharge
and retest the battery.
d. “BAD REPLACE”
The battery will not hold a charge. It should be
replaced immediately.
e. “TEST ERROR”
The tested battery is bigger than 1200CCA. Or
the clamps are not connected properly. Please
fully charge the battery and retest after excluding
both previous reasons. If reading is the same, the
battery should be replaced immediately.
10. Press “ENTER” return to step 4 to continue
testing or remove the test clamps from the battery
terminal to end test.
STARTING SYSTEM TEST
1. Connect the tester to a vehicle battery; the tester
will be in default “BATTERY TEST” mode. Press
the “◀ ” button once to enter “SYSTEM TEST “.
The voltage, “XX.XX V” will appear on the screen.
Press the “Enter” button to go to next step. The
screen will show “TURN OFF LOADS START
ENGINE”.
2. Turn off all vehicle accessory loads such as lights,
air conditioning, radio, etc. and then start the
engine. Wait for the tester to detect the cranking
voltage.
3. When the engine is started and test complete, one
of the three results will be displayed along with the
actual voltage reading measured.
WARNING

5
Operating Instructions and Parts Manual 24359
DIGITAL BATTERY ANALYZER
4/18
2018 OEMTOOLS™
a. “CRANKING VOLTS NORMAL”
The system cranking voltage is in a good range.
b. “CRANKING VOLTS LOW”
The cranking voltage is below normal limits;
troubleshoot the starter with manufacturers
recommended procedure.
c. “CRANKING VOLTS NOT DETECTED”
The cranking voltage is not detected, retest.
Press the “Enter” button to go to next step.
CHARGING SYSTEM TEST
1. The screen will show “PRESS ENTER FOR
CHARGING TEST” Press the “Enter” button to
begin charging test. The screen will show “MAKE
SURE ALL LOADS ARE OFF”. This is for testing
alternate idle voltage. Press the “Enter” button to
go to next step. The screen will show results. One
of the three results will be displayed along with the
actual voltage reading measured.
a. “ALT. IDLE VOLTS NORMAL”
The system is showing normal output from the
alternator. No problem is detected.
b. “ALT. IDLE VOLTS LOW”
The alternator is not providing sufficient current
to the battery. Check the belts to ensure the
alternator is rotating with engine running. If the
belts are slipping or broken, replace the belts and
retest. Check the connections from the alternator
to the battery. If the connection is loose or heavily
corroded, clean or replace the cable and retest. If
the belts and connections are in good condition,
troubleshoot the alternator with the manufacturers
recommended procedure.
c. “ALT. IDLE VOLTS HIGH”
The voltage output from the alternator exceeds
the normal limits of a functioning regulator. Check
to ensure there are no loose connections and
the ground connection is normal. If there is no
connection issue troubleshoot the alternator/
regulator with the manufacturers recommended
procedure. The normal high limit of a typical
automotive regulator is 14.7 volts +/- 0.05. Check
manufacturer specifications for the correct limit, as
it will vary by vehicle type and manufacturer.
2. With the engine at idle, press “ENTER” for the
charging system with accessory loads test. The
screen will show “TURN ON LOADS AND PRESS
ENTER”. Turn on the blower to high (heat), high
beam headlights, and rear defogger. Do not
use cyclical loads such as air conditioning or
windshield wipers. Note: When testing older model
diesel engines, you may need to run up the engine
to 2500 rpm for 15 seconds.
3. Press the “ENTER” key to test the charging system
with accessory loads. One of the three results
will be displayed along with the actual testing
measured.
a. “ALT. LOAD VOLTS NORMAL”
The system is showing normal output from the
alternator. No problem detected.
b. “ALT. LOAD VOLTS LOW”
The alternator is not providing sufficient current
for the systems electrical loads and the charging
current for the battery. Check the belts to ensure
the alternator is rotating with the engine running.
If the belts are slipping or broken, replace the
belts and retest. Check the connections from the
alternator to the battery. If the connection is loose
or heavily corroded, clean or replace the cable and
retest. If the belts and connections are in good
working condition, troubleshoot the alternator with
the manufacturers recommended procedure.
c. “ALT. LOAD VOLTS HIGH”
The voltage output from the alternator to the
battery exceeds the normal limits of a functioning
regulator. Check to ensure there are no loose
connections and that the ground connection
is normal. If there are no connection issues,
troubleshoot the alternator/regulator with the
manufacturers recommended procedure.
4. Press “ENTER” when charging system test is
complete. Turn all accessory loads and engine
off. Press “ENTER” to return to step 1 or remove
the test clamps from the battery posts after
completion of testing to end test.
ADJUST DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS
