Operating principle of a modern automotive circuit tester
Direct power supply via the vehicle battery
The ANCEL PB100 automotive circuit tester connects directly to the vehicle battery and uses it as a power source for its diagnostic functions. This allows the technician not only to measure voltages but also to actively inject voltage into a circuit. This function is particularly useful when individual components need to be selectively activated or tested.
Unlike simple test lamps, this tester allows for a differentiated analysis of electrical systems. The integrated measuring system displays voltage, resistance, and current flow, enabling significantly more precise fault localization.
Analysis of electrical circuits in the vehicle
Modern vehicles have complex electrical networks with numerous control units, sensors, and actuators. A professional automotive circuit tester allows these systems to be systematically tested. The ANCEL PB100 automotive circuit tester, for example, can detect whether a wire is broken, a short circuit exists, or a ground connection is faulty.
Direct voltage injection allows electrical components to be tested independently of the control unit. This makes diagnostics significantly faster and more targeted.
Four operating modes
The ANCEL PB100 offers four operating modes that allow you to perform a precise analysis of your electrical systems:
- DC voltage: Measure DC voltages and check the polarity of the circuit.
- AC Voltage: Analyze alternating voltages for comprehensive system testing.
- Resistance: Test the resistance of various components and connections.
- Diode: Check the condition of diodes and other semiconductors.
DC measurements in vehicle diagnostics
Measuring DC voltage is one of the most important diagnostic functions in vehicles. Many electrical systems, such as sensors, control units, and actuators, operate with stable voltage values between 5V and 12V. Deviations can indicate damaged wiring, faulty control units, or defective ground points.
Testing of electronic components
Diode mode allows testing of electronic components such as rectifiers or protection diodes. These components are frequently found in modern control units and charging systems. A defective component can lead to voltage problems or malfunctions in the vehicle's electrical system.
Practical applications in the workshop
Troubleshooting defective electrical appliances
When an electrical component such as a radiator fan, fuel pump, or electric window stops working, the cause is often within the electrical circuit itself. The ANCEL PB100 automotive circuit tester allows a technician to check whether the component is receiving power or if there is a break in the wiring harness.
By applying a targeted voltage, it is quickly possible to determine whether the component itself or the control unit is responsible.
Locating short circuits
Short circuits are among the most difficult faults in vehicle electrical systems. They can blow fuses or damage electronic control units. The ANCEL PB100 automotive circuit tester allows for systematic tracing of wires and helps pinpoint the exact fault location.
Checking ground connections
Faulty ground connections are among the most common causes of electrical problems in vehicles. Corrosion, loose screw connections, or damaged cables can lead to unstable voltage readings. A circuit tester can quickly identify such problems.

Advanced diagnostic functions of the ANCEL PB100
Transit test
Continuity testing is one of the fundamental diagnostic functions in vehicle electrical systems. The ANCEL PB100 automotive circuit tester allows you to quickly determine whether a wire is electrically connected or if there is a break in the cable.
- Continuity test: Check the condition of wires and components by connecting the probe tip to the electrical system. If the probe tip makes good contact with a ground, the LCD will display "0.0Ω" and the green LED will light up.
Component activation
The activation function is particularly useful for workshop diagnostics. The tester allows electrical components to be controlled directly without requiring the control unit to be active.
- Component activation: The PB100 allows the activation of electrical components such as relays or cooling fans directly via the probe tip. When the green LED goes out or the circuit breaker trips, the device has detected an overload.
Signal test
Many sensors in a vehicle generate electrical signals in the form of voltage fluctuations or frequencies. The ANCEL PB100 automotive circuit tester can analyze these signals.
- Signal testing: Test signal circuits such as the MAP sensor and monitor the sine wave display on the LCD screen to detect faults in the system.
Component activation warning
Please note that applying voltage to certain circuits without taking appropriate precautions can damage the vehicle's electronic components. It is recommended that you always refer to the vehicle manufacturer's wiring diagram and diagnostic procedures when testing.
Correct application in the diagnostic process
Before directly supplying power to a component, always check whether this function is intended by the manufacturer. Some control units are sensitive to direct power supply and could be damaged.
Professional technicians therefore always use the technical documentation of the respective vehicle and carry out the diagnosis step by step.

How OBD diagnostic devices work
How OBD diagnostic devices work
OBD (On-Board Diagnostic) systems are standardized diagnostic tools used in almost all modern vehicles. These systems monitor the vehicle's performance and emissions and store error codes when a problem occurs. OBD diagnostic devices can read these error codes and provide detailed information about the condition of the vehicle. This includes monitoring engine parameters, exhaust emissions and other critical systems. By using OBD diagnostic devices regularly, potential problems can be identified and resolved early before they lead to larger and more costly damage. An OBD diagnostic device should therefore be in every vehicle to make car diagnostics efficient and comprehensive.
