How an automotive oscilloscope diagnostic tool can help

Using an automotive diagnostic scope assists in troubleshooting problems throughout the vehicle's electrical network, allowing you to inspect individual components, communication networks, and ECMs.

Using a Picoscope helps you:

• Make informed decisions by testing individual components before considering replacements, therefore eliminating guesswork.
• Tackle troublesome intermittent faults with ease.
• Effectively investigate vehicle problems, even in cases with no fault codes, multiple fault codes, or misleading fault codes.
• Accurately diagnose charging and starting faults.
• Trace issues with actuators not monitored by the ECM, including motors and injectors, simplifying the diagnostic process.
• Identify mechanical problems like compression and slipped/incorrectly fitted timing belts with precision.
• Pinpoint the source of NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) problems, providing valuable insights for resolution.
• Deliver objective findings to both managers and customers, keeping all stakeholders informed throughout the diagnostic journey.

Pico Automotive Diagnostics Software

A PicoScope is designed to be used with our automotive diagnostics software (PicoScope 7 Automotive and PicoDiagnostics) which features guided tests and tools to help capture and analyze waveforms. The diagnostic program is designed to be used in a variety of workplaces and situations.
We’re regularly working on updating our software, not only quickly tackling bugs but always striving to add new functionality. We provide our diagnostics software free of charge for PicoScope users.

Oscilloscope storage

Workshops can benefit from oscilloscope foam inserts that sit neatly in a tool tray for easy organization and increased efficiency. If you’re on the move, an oscilloscope carry case makes the best use of space by packing in our diagnostic scopes and their accessories together, ready to go on-site at a moment's notice.

Channels

Multiple input channels on an oscilloscope enable it to plot various signals simultaneously. For educational and home use, our 2-channel starter kits are ideal. Our most popular automotive scope has 4 input channels.

For those working on complex R&D and engineering projects, we offer an 8-channel automotive lab scope for the most versatility.
