    Don't search by the tone. Use the light and tune the sensitivity until it just comes on when you touch the red probe. It will be much easier to find the correct wire in a crowded box.

    Make sure you turn off the power 1st or you'll blow up the machine and possibly give yourself a electric sock. Pro tip from an electrician 😌

    Bell and battery to check de-energized conductors for continuity. Very easy to make with 9v and piezo.

    Wait so why did you connect the black hot wire to the negative on the tool? I would assume the neutral wire would go to negative and the black hot wire would go to positive 🤔

    Couldnt u just use multimeter on ohm setting to check continuity

    • @colegill6368
      @colegill6368 Рік тому

      Yes technically but you’re goal is to find the other end of the wires, trace where they go whether it’s to the light, breaker or another switch or receptacle the only problem w that is having you’re meter be able to reach from one end of your wires to the other which likely won’t happen when the other end is across the room from you

      I think the machine detects the continuity by sound, he is saying it sounds rough and the last cables it sounds pitch sound..

      Pull all the wires apart in everything nearby then attach the tone maker and touch all the wires with the receiver.

    This Tip SUCKS!!!!!!! I’ve tried many techniques. Out of desperation I gave it a shot!!! If you happen to read the instructions, this tool is designed for up to 60Volts scenarios! I have no idea what goes up to 60Volts but I came across a tip that has flooooooooooree ME!!!!!! Simply use the tone maker from this kit. Not use your voltage tester wand!!! Do not use the one that comes with this kit. The results are FIRE!!!!! I’ve tried every gimmick in the book and u less you have schematics, color code, route…. Good Luck!!! This technique simply takes you to the general area! This new trick I learned from an other user on UA-cam, it’s a game changer!!!!! % accurate and exact to a
