Its integrated flashlight and auto signal-locking make diagnostics faster and more precise, all housed in a rugged blow-molded case for on-the-go reliability.

## Description

The Power Probe ECT3000, a 2-pc circuit tracer, transmits a signal into an isolated circuit (shorted or open) and traces the direction to the problem. The receiver allows users to see the distance from the wire being traced and the direction to the short. The auto-signal locking feature eases first-time use and eliminates the need to remove interior trims and carpets. The integrated flashlight will illuminate the workspace and the automatic 10-minute shut off helps users save battery life.

*by A***E on 30 August 2026*

I’ve used a tone generator with automotive harnesses for years. Never thought to get one of these, but it’s so convenient. Tap a wire, trace along until the signal fades. There’s your break. Never fails to find a break.
