Lab Scope diagnostics section

I think a lab scope is an under rated tool in automotive. Those who use it a lot really understand it's benefits and honestly it's necessity. A section dedicated to lab scope usage would help current users and new users get the most out of their scope.

Only to parts changers.

Hah! :lol:

I think we figured the Diagnostic Tools section covered all the lab scope stuff, but we're happy to look into creating a new section if you guys think it'd be an improvement.

Using a lab scope is kind of a world of it's own in automotive repair. Lots of people go without a scope and do just fine. But without a scope a mechanic is really missing out on a lot of opportunity to increase efficiency and accuracy. A section devoted to lab scope usage would help users see the benefits of a scope without having to wade through pages of general repair information.

Truthfully, as big as Danner is about using a scope, I'm surprised there isn't a section for it already.

I'll amend that and say that a scope is an absolute essential tool for techs. Has been for a very long time.

A scope and live data take the guess work out of diagnostics.

How do we feel about creating a dedicated Lab Scope and Accessories section within Diagnostic Tools?

Awesome.

Feel free to get posting!

Thanks! I'll be putting all of my lab scope activity there.

I consider scopes as an Xray for automotive diagnostics !!!

I use the same analogy. And, Scan Data is "Blood Work".
