accessories. The various leads, probes, clips, and adapters that are supplied with or available for
the Diagnostic Tool explained in this section.

Channel 1 Lead
Figure 8-1 Yellow Channel 1 Lead
The shielded yellow lead is used for Channel 1 (Figure 8-1) and other channel connections that
need additional grounding. The lead color matches the color of socket 1 on the diagnostic tool and
the color of trace 1 on the test screens.
This yellow lead includes a black, right-angle, common ground plug and a black, stackable,
right-angle, common ground plug. The non-stackable ground plug always connects to the ground
(GND) jack on top of the diagnostic tool. The stackable ground plug is used for connecting
additional leads, such as the Channel 2 Lead or the Secondary Coil Adapter Lead, that require
grounding. The stackable lead does not need to be connected to the GND jack on the diagnostic
tool, it grounds through the non-stackable lead.
Channel 2 Lead
Figure 8-2 Green Channel 2 lead
The shielded green lead (Figure 8-2) is used for Channel 2. The lead color matches the color of
socket 2 on the diagnostic tool and the color of trace 2 on the test screens. This green lead
includes a stackable, black, right-angle, ground plug.
