Test Light Bulbs
And if you want to get them from Digi-Key: www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/jkl-co.../289-1224-ND/1552938 I love Digi-Key they have taken extremely good care of my electronic component needs for a long time. Recently they (a salesperson stayed on the line with the tech support specialist) spent about 20 minutes with me cross-referencing miniature relays. I need one to fix a microwave for which the OEM had obsoleted the original part, the relay cost $2.50 - you can hardly find that kind of help anymore. btw, the microwave is still doing fine!
I am going to order some GF780s from Digi-Key and I will report back if they fit my new Craftsman light or not. I don't really like the red bulb it came with.

I also have sources for the terminals (Yazaki, Sumitomo) such as the 2.3II that Toyota uses if anyone is interested in building testing connectors or harness repairs. Toyota also sell the connector housings online with seals and all, I ordered some and repaired my Solara's A/F sensor harness side connector. Also some of the GM Metri Pack terminals, I bought some 150s, the little ones that are in the 5-wire EGR and mass airflow connectors, etc.

YES. I've actually been browsing Amazon for kits like this, with all the rodent damage repairs I've been doing recently. Little bastards love to chew the wire off right at the weatherpack The shop has a selection of wiring harnesses to cannibalize, but I can never seem to find the pins I need...

If it ever comes down to it, I can UPS you any specific connector or pigtail I may have at the junkyard. Assuming times isn't of the essence of course.

I bought this one: www.craftsman.com/products/craftsman-coil-cord-circuit-tester but I also want one of the minis: www.craftsman.com/products/craftsman-min...-cord-circuit-tester

That link is for the Yazaki 2.3II terminals, I went all the way back to the Home page and it looks like you can get Delphi too.

This is where I got the GM Metri Pack terminals and I think Delphi makes them or at least they probably designed them for GM but I'm guessing.
And from Toyota... they sell it as a pigtail complete with seal: www.toyotaonlineparts.com/oe-toyota/8299812440

Yep, same ones I have! They're rebranded OTC lights, so if they fit yours then I'm good

And, I also realized that if we want to we can swap in a fuse and have a fused jumper. I am pretty sure you can get the AGC (I think that's right) fuses in 250 and 500 mA. You could put like a band of red electrical tape around it or something to identify that it's your jumper and not the test light.

Dude that's brilliant! That 500mA could be nice in certain situations, especially because fuses that low aren't commonly available in ATO or ATC.

You are using my favorite test light!!!! I can only imagine why?????????:silly: :silly: :silly: :silly:
It is highly customizable, as you can see in my photo.
All my test stuff is 4mm Banana Jack now, so this makes it scope-friendly and DVOM-friendly!!!
