    Hello Fron Winchester

    Hello fellow UK vantage pro users. Just purchased a vantage pro
    and watching all the videos I can find on the net to try and get to grips
    with it. Also practising on working cars in my spare time just to get the
    feel for it. In the box I have two leads that I am not sure how to use first
    is a small blue lead which is a single flag COP adapter. the second is a
    plug lead clamp that plugs into the AUX socket. So be gentle with me for asking such a basic question, but training at the garage where I work
    is pretty much DIY!! Just code reading and the poking around with a
    DMM is quite frustrating. So I am trying to "improve" myself and I realise
    That scoping after scanning is the way forward.

    Looking Forward to hearing from you all

    Kind Regards
    Nigel.

            a thing i try to do if i get time is scope some sensors on a car thats a known good runner...sometimes capturing the waveforms or just making a mental note of them.
