Thanks Scotty
Great video Scotty I need one of those
Scotty Kilmer i need one but i live in germany plllleas i need one
Scotty Kilmer always going advice Scotty
who won?!?
Meh. I just put my tongue on the battery terminals to check for voltage.
Those lead terminals just taste too good!
Can i French kiss you?
yes make sure car is running at 6k rpm
Lol. Yeah, that works
You’ll find the hybrid revolution quite shocking👌
3:53 lol The strip club pic LOL, oh Scotty you're so slick 😂😉😉
3:54
Lead Poyzinun Have to give a second or two to buffer
Keye. Good excuse.
Lead Poyzinun 😉
Demonitized.
Rev up your multimeters
Nate wu 😂😂😁
Nate wu Best comment!
This is ridiculously funny 🤣🤣🤣
I have a Fluke 189. Its 18 years old and still as accurate as the first day I got it. A high end multimeter is a must when working on expensive high end electronics.
You can also use the multi-meter to measure the resistance of various solenoids and injectors for troubleshooting.
Shocking! I get a real charge out of watching Scotty's videos. ;-)
I think his "shorts" are better (ouch)
I've got the Fluke and the Innova ... Now I need the Blue Driver! You'll have to explain this to my wife!
If Apple made a car, would it use Windows?
EMOCOME Nah, they'd have like cameras outside of the car and displays inside that show what's outside
EMOCOME LOL
EMOCOME If Apple made a car, make sure to have rice during rainy days.
No.. But it would run on Lightning & proprietary gasoline. And you know the gas would be at least ten times the real cost. 😝
Anyone wearing a turtle neck sweater would tell you they're the best, even though they wouldn't be compatible with any public road.
My journeyman told me, when it comes multimeters, you never wanna buy cheap. Either fluke or snapon are the most recommended ones.
Im a union electrician and that's not true......if u think something is hot....piss on it.....
I have a high dollar mac multimeter (made by fluke) I bought back in 1998. it was so fancy it came with its own 3 1/2" floppy disk.
I use the fluke multimeter in the Air Force and needs to get sent out to get calibrated every so often!! It’s an awesome device
"Needs" is used loosely here. You can build your own precision voltage supplies, buy a few precision resistors, and that gets you volts and ohms. Next you can put the precision voltage ON the precision resistor to calculate and calibrate current. They're just little pots inside that you turn with a plastic screwdriver blade or equivalent.
What's your AFSC?
eldom72 2AX1B (C-17 Comm/Nav/EW)
Your A/C was 53 degrees while it was just sitting idling?
It must get pretty cold after you get going down the highway.
That's a pretty good A/C
It's a Toyota thing I think my Toyota is 16 years old now and the AC has to stay on low cuz it's too cold... And it's never been serviced
O ya i had a 1996 Camry Ac was so cold had to turn it off lol
My Corolla is 16 years old and the vent temp is 39 degrees.
Johannes Brahms ; Nice
Virgil. How did you get so lucky? My Sienna is 10 years old, and has had 2 repair bills in the past 3 years totaling nearly $3K. In fact, I've never had AC last on any car for more than 10 years old. You are lucky indeed!
Very handy to have a multimeter, can test battery n alternators along with sensors to see if their getting 12v
Actually most sensors are well below 12 v, many in the 4.5v range , part of what the computer does
It always used to crack me up many years ago driving past the Fluke factory. On the outside of their building was a sign. It said "IF IT'S A GOOD ONE, IT'S A FLUKE".
My free Harbor Freight meter died and have been looking at several and your video made up my mind about getting auto sensing. So just send that one to me I could live with my having to spend the $49. Great video by the way.
Send that thing to me Scotty!
Congratulations, you have won! Email me at: scotty.mechanic@gmail.com with your full name and address, so I can mail you this Multimeter! And thanks to all entrants, don't worry, there will be another giveaway this Monday!
Scotty Kilmer Thanks Scotty!
@@BigDog50001 Congrats! Saw your follow up video, very amusing 😊
@@bluffmasterhara I had fun making it, thanks!
The advantage of the cheap multimeters is that, when your kids borrow them and lose them, you're not out too much money. 😂
I would like to have another multi meter but seeing as I have three on my work bench it would seem counter productive.
The multimeter is a tool can be applied in so many different situations.
The sky is the limit.
That said I would recommend getting one.
Just learned all I need to know about multimeters
I still blow through the harbor freight 1:99 ones. Smoke pouring out🔥
Me to
Does all kind of stuffs for $49- Strip Club pic lol.
So the modern day Scotty is still living life healthy ey? Good keep it up
Scotty we used those yellow multi meters in the Marine Corps on our Aircraft for avionics toubleshooting.
I actually just blew up my 25 year old radio shack (fluke copy cat) meter a few weeks back. Nice review might have to check this one out and drop the $50.
I could use the tachometer feature on that multimeter because my car doesn’t have one.
obd bluetooth and any app on your phone :)
Ig Ja Yep! I actually splurged and got myself a Scangauge. Tells rpm, mph, coolant and intake air temp, timing, mpg, and a bunch of other stuff 👌
Hei Scotty ! When you will start doing shout-outs for small car repair channels ? You really inspire me ( at least ) to start my own youtube channel 😁
Hello and soon, I'm still going through the dozens of channels that have contacted me and launching 2 videos per day, thanks
Great ! Thanks for your great work :)
..... don't laugh. You can over volt any meter. Dead cylinder on an '86 Grand Am and was running resistance check on the coil pack with a Fluke meter. Forgot the meter was still hooked up and went to start the engine and blew a fuse on the meter. If you buy any meter get one that has changeable fuses.... just another reason to hate Delco-Remy.
teton tom was that a 2.5 or 3.0 v6?
teton tom never measure resistance in a live circuit
3.0 v6...... #5 was constantly going out even with new plugs and wires. Went thru 3 coil packs ....... engineered to fail......
..... pretty dead before I started it.
Was there a spare fuse inside? There was in mine. I was impressed.
im addicted to your vids scotty! That meter will come in handy trying to get my car to run ;)
Great video, I did not know multimeters perform so many tasks.
damn. that $550 is the type of multimeter I've used in my physics class
At least the money went to a good use and not to their pockets. Our schools and colleges never had expensive gear. Only some State Universities have that kind of cash around me.
Lol the picture of Donald Trump
I did not know that, that if your exhaust was running hot your catalytic converters having a problem.
Thanks again Scott in for your great wealth of knowledge.
As usual, I always get a kick out of you being so upbeat.
I have been needing a multimeter for a while now for certain things I was fixing.
Good stuff. Your videos have helped give me the confidence to fix a lot of things I never would have touched in the past.
I really need a multimeter. So i can repair my motorcycle, the only transportation i have.
Bilal Hussain I hope you win it 👍🏻
harborfreight sometimes have their basic multimeter for free with any purchase if you sign up for their coupons, and also it would really help if you have the wiring diagram for your motorcycle otherwise its gonna be a PITA trying to figure out which wire goes to where. I bought a honda from a guy who messed up the wiring, he kept wondering why the bike blew its starter relay fuse every time the ignition switch was on. Took me the whole day to figure out that he messed up the wires in the connector for the starter relay even with the help of a multimeter and wiring diagram.
I took a shower before I posted Scotty !
Got mine for free at harbor freight
Obviously high quality!
Harbor Freight ftw
I break the leads way before I lose it. Never blew one up.
Boxing hey I saved a bunch I use it once in a blue moon
They're OK, but my experience with them is that they can occasionally flake out and be really inaccurate.. seemingly at random.
Boxing the problem is the leads that they give you are so cheap that any bit of flexing will break the copper wire inside the insulation. But even good leads will wear out over time. Just not as quickly as those
The temperature probe feature is very nice. For $49 that meter seems like a pretty good deal!
I’ve got a volt meter that was around $6,000. (AEMC 8335) Not bragging, it was what I could afford at the time. They make even more expensive ones than that!
Hey its everybody's favorite uncle
Love your videos, your the best, love old timers with with experience.
Great video as usual scotty!
That sure is a useful meter, thanks for showing it.
great value for money multimeter
Both the multimeter and the load pro are excellent devices to have especially if you own a German vehicle with all the electrical problems that comes standard with them! Lol😅🤣😂👍🏽🇺🇸🇯🇲🌴☀️🌴
"German vehicle with all the electrical problems"? Looks like you there in the US don't import french cars, because let me tell you, compared to Renault, the VW electronics are epitomy of reliability :D
Pavel Tobiáš Lmao😂🤣😅...talk about a new low!
French made cars are deplorable for sure, They are like eggs you never know when they are going to crack under pressure!👍🏽🇺🇸🇯🇲🌴☀️🌴
Master Chief nah, althrough germans call Fiat "Fehler In Alle Teilen" (fault in every part), there are still less reliable cars overall.
As far as the Renault goes, they still have (or had, before the EU went nuts and decided 0,9l i3 is ideal engine size for family car) decent engines, just the electronics isn't to be relied upon. And as far as overall reliability is concerned, the older Lancias (before they became basically Fiat with weird design) were pretty unreliable, but at least they were really good cars otherwise.
Or there was the Yugo, terrible little thing from all perspectives and i believe you actually had those in the US ;)
Scotty is the highlight of my day
I feel bad for you. Things well get better soon.
Yet another reason not to buy a hybrid or electric car at least not until they get a lot more popular
dave houston idk man i see teslas everywhere now.
Not
Hey Scotty , Really appreciate your automotive experience and knowledge.
I love your videos. I learn things I didn't even know I needed to know. Thank you. Take care.
Not just professional electricians, but Electrical Engineers as well :P [1:03]
Choose me Computer 😎
Thanks for the tips Scotty
I will take one of those meters scotty, and this is a clean message
Your videos are very helpful Scotty
Great video Scotty! Thanks for the info
Very informative video, Scotty!
Good info Scotty - really enjoy your channel.
here in the Philippines... Fluke 88V costs about $620.59...
That multimeter would have a multitude of uses in my garage.
I could have rev'd up my lab when I worked at Tesla on the original Roadster with that meter!
I can sure use one!
The bluedriver is amazing and I never knew about it!
Would you recommend the Bluedriver over the Fluke 87V? If yes, why? I'm considering buying the Fluke 87V but I'm also interested in hearing opinions about why other meters might be better for automotive work. Although the Fluke is more expensive, I am intentionally not considering cost as a factor since I'm most interested in having a quality, reliable, accurate and highly capable multi meter. If you think the Bluedriver is better for automotive applications, please explain specifically why you think it's better. For example, if you know the Bluedriver is able to perform certain functions that the Fluke 87V cannot, please let me know. Thanks in advance for your reply.
Thank for the video and show us a great product with a good price.
I have Extech meters. But Flukes are probably the best
Looks like a pretty awesome tool
nothing like a blue Monday giveaway. Could really use a good multimeter.
I have the Blue Driver OBD2 scan tool. If their multimeter is the same quality, it'll be a great tool to have. Thanks for the info, Scotty.
Seems like the multimeter does an excellent job.
I've been looking for a good multimeter! I might have to check that one out. Thanks Scotty!
Hi Scotty love to Try one of these! Keep up making the good, plan and simple videos!
Do they still make these things in 2021? I’m not even seeing it mentioned on the BlueDriver website. Not a good sign.
Nice job on the multimeter video,keep up the good work
I have an OTC 100 multimeter and a kal equip
Handy little unit for a very good price!
With the right meter you can check anything going on in the car.
Keep up the good work! Thanks!
If you buy one from harbor freight, test it immediately so you know you don't find out you got a dud much later on when you actually need it..ask me how I know
A nice machine ! Good discovery !
Scotty, Thanks for taking my question on the weekend. We're going to trade in the Accord for a Camry. No more CVT's for us.
Spot on about the fluke Scotty! As an electrician, it’s generally true that we know how to use cheap $10 testers and know whether to trust the result, but a fluke is generally what we use and trust.
Great vid, Scotty.
Good luck to me! Thanks Scotty!
Great , informative video!
Thanks for the DVM update... that was a quick run through on the meter use... hope I win... Bob
Multimeters are great.
I've watched every "Mechanic Monday" and I'm still waiting for you to give away a mechanic 🤣
I FIND THESE MULTIMETER AND ALL YOUR AUTOMOTIVE VIDEOS EDUCATIONAL AND EXCELLENT ENTERTAINING TO HELP ME WITH 2015 CHRYSLER 200, 86 DODGE B150 RAM VAN, AND MY 1931 FORD MODEL A TUDOR, 36 & 37 DODGE BROTHERS AND OUR 1956 PLYMOUTH SAVOY. PLEASE SEND ME THE THE MULTIMETER. I'M WITH THE AACA AND MODEL A CLUBS NATIONAL AND LOCAL. I BEEN STUDYING ALL YOUR AUTOMOTIVE VIDEOS. THANKS MILAN
I could really do with one of those
Awesome, Scotty!
Looks like a cool mutimeter. I've gotten the cheap AutoZone ones in the past, and I agree that they break down too easily
thanks for the informative content scotty !!, great as usual ))
I just ordered a meter with DC amp clamp.
Love the channel, keep up the great work!
I have a Fluke but need more!
Another excellent video.
nice explain. thanks!
thanks for the info
Hey Scotty where can I get the Blue driver multimeter or do you recommend a good one? Thanks
I use Fluke. I’m an electronic repair guy. The cheap Chi-Comm meters can’t take an electrical hit like the Fluke. I used to go with the cheap meters, until an electrician showed me how the Fluke dealt with a short vs. the Chinese stuff.
