Using the Midtronics EXP-1050 battery
tester
• Disconnect the battery ground cable at the battery negative (-) post. Note: if using this
battery tester on models where the ground cable
is not accessible, the battery does not have to
be removed from the vehicle and may be tested
using the vehicle's 'jump start post' if the battery
tester is set to the correct mode. In this case,
the battery must be disconnected at the positive
(+) post before testing.
• Connect the positive red clamp of the Midtronics
EXP-1050 battery tester to the battery positive
(+) post.
• Connect the negative black clamp of the Midtronics EXP-1050 battery tester to the
battery negative (-) post or jump start post as
appropriate.
A poor connection will prevent testing and the
battery tester will display the message CHECK
CONNECTION. If this message appears after you have correctly reconnected the clamps, clean the
terminals and reconnect.
It is recommended that batteries are always tested
using both battery posts. However, if used in 'jump
start post' mode, the Midtronics EXP-1050 battery
tester will compensate for the extra resistance of
the additional cable.
