Video Transcript for 3-Piece Electrician Tool Set Review

Today we're going to be taking a look at the performance tool 3 piece electrician tool set. This is going to offer a great assortment for the garage, home, workshop use or on the job site. It's going to come with a digital multi meter that's going to measure AC and DC voltage. It's going to test DC current, as well as resistance. Features a diode test and it's going to feature a digital display, as well as data storage. This unit is going to feature a nice strong a durable casing to keep it protected. It's also got a kickstand here on the back that props the unit up for hands-free operation or freeing up your hands to do something else. Again, we have the LCD screen.

Right here is going to be a hold button. Then, we're going to have our range switch. Nice, clicking design that firmly stops in each location. You can see that large display. It's very easy to read and it's got the off position there.

We're going to have the HFE socket. Right here we're going to have 3 connecting jacks for the test leads. The unit's going to run off of a 9 volt battery. It does come with a 9 volt battery. The battery area is directly back here. You'd remove this screw on the bottom.

Remove the protective casing and then slide that bottom portion off. Then you can change the battery as needed. It is nice that it comes with that case. That's going to do a great job of keeping the unit protected, in case you accidentally drop it or bump it up against something. It's going to come with your test leads. Test leads are included. These are going to measure around 40 inches from end to end.

Then, they're going to have the protective covers over the tips there. We're going to have a pair of 7 inch diagonal wire-cutting pliers. They got the nice short jaws on there for easy cutting in tight areas. These are drop forged and induction, hardened for durability and they got the nice easy grip design on it, as well. These right here, these are going to be the 7 inch wire strippers for 10 to 20 gauge wires. It's got the nice little locking tab on there, so when they're not being used, close them. Push in that and then it keeps the unit compressed. It's also going to cut and thread popular bolt sizes. You can use these to loop wires and bend holes. It's got the serrated nose design right there. That's going to do it for today's look at the performance tool 3 piece electrician tool set.

  • How to Test HydraStar HBA-CAM Module with Multimeter
    Essentially the adapter part # HBA-CAM is designed to simulate amperage draw of a brake magnet by use of resistance. So you can use an multimeter like # PTW1714 set to read amperage to probe each wire of the adapter. As long as you are seeing over 7.5 amps the adapter would should allow a brake controller to think a trailer is connected.

  • Troubleshooting Heater Not Working on Thomas Payne Recliner but Massage and Lights Work
    I spoke with my contact at Lippert who said that either the heater is bad or the control box needs to be replaced on your Thomas Payne Momentum recliner. To test the heater unplug the red and black wires from the control box (located behind and under your recliner) and test for continuity using a multimeter like part # PTW1714. If you continuity then that means the control box is bad and you can replace it with part # 195-387596. If you don't have continuity then the heater is bad and...

  • Is a Brake Controller Required for Towing a Camper Trailer
    Not necessarily. It all depends on how big of a camper you are wanting to tow and sometimes what you are towing it with. The typical rule of thumb that vehicle manufacturers go by is if you are towing it with a smaller vehicle a brake controller is required for anything over 1,000 lbs but for bigger trucks that is sometimes moved to 2,000 lbs. Local and State laws sometimes affect this as well. In any case, if your camper trailer is over that 1,000 lb threshold it is a good idea to use...

  • The iRV63 RV Stereo Will Not Power-Up
    I suggest using a multimeter, such as the # PTW1714, to verify that a full 12V is live at the connection point for the iRV RV Stereo, # IRV64FR. If you do have proper voltage present and all connections are made per installation instructions with failure to illuminate the screen, please let us know that we may begin a returns claim.

  • How to Install 7-Way Plug Wiring Correctly on a 1975 Toyota Land Cruiser
    Thank you for the pictures! A common misconception is that there is a specific wire color for each specific function. Although there are "typical" wire colors, nothing is set in stone so your best bet is to test for function. Using a circuit tester like part # PTW2979 or a multimeter like part # PTW1714 test each of your wires on your 1975 Toyota Land Cruiser by running through your lighting functions. Once you know what circuit each wire is connected to, use the picture of the 7-Way...

  • Heater on Thomas Payne Theater Seating Not Working
    There could be 2 different issues here, so I'll give you a way to test out the control box which will help us figure out what the issue might be. To test the heater unplug the red and black wires from the control box (located behind and under your recliner) and test using a multimeter like part # PTW1714. Using the continuity setting on the meter, check and see if there is continuity on the wires of the control box- if you have continuity then that means the control box is bad and you...

  • What Faceplate And Rocker Switch Do You Recommend To Replace My Dimmer Switch
    The IP66/206 Single RV Switch Faceplate - Black, part # 37214045, will work with any IP66/206 series switches. We have a number of IP66 switches that will work with this faceplate. The switch you linked to this question, RV Switch - On/On - SPDT - Black, is not compatible with this faceplate. However, I do have some RV switches that are compatible with this faceplate, My recommendation is the Single Rocker Switch - On/Off/On - Water Resistant - SPDT - Black. part # 37213835.

    We've checked with Thomas Payne about this issue in the past and they said that either the heater is bad or the control box needs to be replaced on your Thomas Payne Momentum recliner.

  • Troubleshooting a Furrion Tankless Water Heater & Wall Mounted Controller
    I suggest you do a continuity check on all wires from your thermostat to the Furrion RV Tankless Water Heater, # FR93FR and ensure the ground wires are solid. Use a meter such as the # PTW1714 or something similar.

  • Wiring a Pollak 7-Way Connector on a Fleetwood RV
    I believe that your problem is the color of the wiring itself. Although there are standards out there, sometimes vehicle manufacturers use different color wiring for different functions which ends up throwing people off when they are trying to install a connector like what you are doing with the Pollak # PK12-707E. Try taking a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 or a multimeter like part # PTW1714 and test the functions of each wire on your Fleetwood. For example, use one of your turn...

  • How to Test Power Output for the Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160
    From what I could find in the linked instructions it looks like the display will keep reading n.c. even if you are using the override manual. You can still test the output voltage of the Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160 at the 5 o'clock pin of your 7-Way though. What you need to do is move the power wheel (rotate with upwards motion) to increase the power level to max and then use the override manual lever to send power back to your 7-Way. If you use a multimeter like part # PTW1714 you can...

  • How to Wire Headache Rack w/ LED Lights on 2019 Ford Super Duty
    The B&W Custom Headache Rack w/ LED Brake, Turn, Tail Lights # BWPUCP7500WA uses bonded 4 pole wire to make the connections, however most of the new Fords have a "smart" tow plug, which means that it is looking for voltage to see if the trailer is hooked up or not. That explains the messages on the dash. The best way to wire up the headache rack is to wire it directly to your Super Duty's electrical system, and bypass the trailer wiring. The factory harness is on the passenger side of...

  • How to Inspect/Test Electric Trailer Brake Magnets
    For starters, you'll want to give the magnets a good looking over. If you look at the front face of the magnet that rides against the armature surface of the brake drum, you should not see any of the copper wiring that's encased within the magnet. If you do, it's a sure sign that the magnets need replacing. Then, use a multimeter like # PTW1714 and check the wires feeding the magnet while a helper holds the manual brake lever down on your brake controller. You should be seeing at least...

  • Troubleshooting 7-Way Connector Not Working on a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500
    If your trailer is working properly with other vehicles then the problem is definitely on your 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500. The fuse that you referenced I believe is for the 12V power but I could be mistaken. I tried looking up the online owner's manual but it didn't really identify the various fuses with numbers. With that being said, the best place to start is right at the 7-Way connector on your Chevy. Using a circuit tester like part # PTW2991 or a multimeter like part # PTW1714 check...

    If you've already tried everything listed in the owner's manual for your iRV RV Stereo - Double DIN - HDMI, AUX, Bluetooth, App Control # IRV64FR, I recommend trying a factory reset. To do this, you're going to press and hold the power button for 5 seconds until the unit shuts off. After the unit is shut off, press the "ON" button to re-power on the unit. Additionally I also suggest checking your connections to the radio, as well as, checking for proper voltage with a multimeter # PTW1714....

  • Troubleshooting No Right Stop/Turn Lights on P.J. Trailer
    Trailer wiring can be a little frustrating to work with at times because there isn't a specific color wire that is "standard" for different circuits. Typically the right (passenger) side stop/turn will be on a green wire but that isn't always the case. To determine if the problem is on your tow vehicle or your trailer I recommend using a circuit tester # PTW2979 or a multimeter # PTW1714 to ensure that the connector on your tow vehicle is sending power to the right stop/turn circuit.

  • Troubleshooting Advent AC Fan Shutting Off Shortly After Startup
    I agree with you that the capacitor on the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner w/ Air Distribution Box, Start Capacitor, and Heat Strip # ACM135CH is bad and needs to be replaced. To test the capacitor you'll need a multimeter like part # PTW1714 and you'll use that to test the terminals on the capacitor to see if the ratings match what the capacitor is rated for. Be sure to shut off power to the AC unit and discharge the remaining voltage in the capacitor prior to touching the contacts. We...

  • What is Warranty Length of Thomas Payne Recliners with Heat Function
    The warranty on all of the now discontinued Thomas Payne RV Swivel Glider RV Recliner w/ Heated Seats like the 195-000029, is 1 year from the date of purchase. If the chair is OEM in the RV then the warranty is 1 year from the date of the original purchase.

If you have continuity then that means the control box is...

  • Cant Find Cold Side of Brake Light Switch on 2007 Freightliner Century Semi for Brake Controller
    I do have a possible brake controller that you can use but unfortuantely I can't really help you out with locating your stop light switch on a 2007 Freightliner Century Semi. The only advice I can really give is to use a circuit tester # PTW2992 or multimeter # PTW1714 to test which wire gets hot when you press the brake pedal. Other than that none of my resources have information on the location of the stop light wire for your 2007 Freightliner Century Semi. If you can't find the stop...

    When testing the control box you will not unplug it; you will use Multimeter # PTW1714 and unplug the red and black wires from the control box to test them for continuity. If you do have continuity the control box is simply bad and you can replace it with the Replacement Control Box for Thomas Payne Momentum Recliners and Sofas # 195-387596.

  • Troubleshooting Weak Braking with the Manual Override on the Reese/Tow Ready Pilot Brake Controller
    Were you driving with your trailer when you applied the brakes with the Pilot 2-6 Brake Electronic Brake Controller # 80550? According to the instructions you want to warm the trailer brakes before setting the power setting as warm brakes are more responsive. You can warm the trailer brakes by driving 45 mph for a short distance and then use the manual override lever to engage the brakes at a low level. You do not want to set the power high enough to lock up the brakes as this can cause...

  • How to Determine Wire Functions on Trailer to Install Furrion Vision S Side Cameras
    You can determine which black wire on your trailer is ground by hooking your trailer up to your tow vehicle and turning your running lights on. This will cause one of the wires to have power. You can determine which is which using a circuit tester like part # PTW2992 or a multimeter like part # PTW1714. Once you know which wire carries which function you can attach the wiring of the Furrion Vision S Side Cameras # FCE48TASL. The black is ground, the brown is running lights, and the red...

  • How to Test Trailer Brake Magnets for Power
    Since you have had the RV dealer look at the brakes, they have likely done this already, but in order to test the trailer brake magnets for power you will need a 12 volt battery and a multimeter like # PTW1714. To test individual brake magnets for proper function, sever the magnet wires and connect the ammeter between the positive terminal of a 12-volt battery and one of the magnet wires; it does not matter which one. Then connect the other magnet wire to the negative battery terminal....

  • What Parts do I Need to Install Wiring on My New Truck Bed?
    In order to use a new bed on your 2009 Chevy 3500, you need to rewire the truck. There are no current plug-and-play adapters to use for wiring the taillights, turn signals, and backup lights with the new bed. In order to be equipped with the parts you need, I recommend the 3-Piece Electrician Tool Set # PTW1714. This comes with wire cutters, a voltage reader, and a wire stripper. If you need just a voltage reader, I recommend the LCD Tester # PTW2992. If you need heat butt connectors,...
