Do U-Scope? (Episode 6) 5 volt reference – Why not 12v

Uscope - https://www.aeswave.com/uScope-Master-Kit-p9622.html 5V reference circuits cause some of the most confusing “multiple sensor failure” diagnostics in modern vehicles. In this video I break down what 5V reference is, why it’s 5 volts, how the ECM/PCM uses it to...

Delorean calipers have never been so fun

Delorean calipers have never been so fun

Today we’re rebuilding the rear brake calipers on a DeLorean — a job that solves common issues such as dragging brakes, uneven pad wear, sticking pistons, and handbrake imbalance. The DeLorean’s rear calipers have some unique design quirks, including the integrated...

Automotive Lab Scope Basics | Understanding the uScope In this video, we walk through the fundamentals of using a lab scope (automotive oscilloscope) — what it does, how it works, and why it’s one of the most powerful diagnostic tools you can own. Using a signal...

Do U-Scope? (Episode 4) Real-World Scope Tests: Relative Compression Test



In this video, I break down how to perform a Relative Compression Test using an oscilloscope. This fast, non-invasive diagnostic method lets you check engine health without removing spark plugs. You’ll learn how to set up the test, connect a current clamp, record the waveform, and interpret compression peaks to identify low or dead cylinders.

This test is extremely useful for misfires, hard-start conditions, and high-mileage engines. We cover good vs bad waveforms, timing issues, sync channel setup, and real shop examples.

If you’re learning automotive oscilloscope diagnostics, fuel trim, waveform analysis, or Subaru mechanical failures—this is for you.
