The test appears to use a nearby bottle of ionized electrolyte drinking water in an effort to decontaminate the tester's probes between measurements. When immersed in a mixture of one part tap water and 39 parts distilled water (2. Both vehicles had a brake fluid flush less than a year ago. 5 percent), the tester correctly extinguished the >4 percent LED, showing <3 percent contamination.

I've yet to determine the tester's consistency over its specified temperature range, or with other brake fluids. When immersed in a mixture of one part tap water and 19 parts distilled water (5 percent), the tester showed the expected result of greater than 4 percent. Microscopic amounts of the ionized water, shedding off the probe tips into the brake fluid samples, could be enough to alter the outcome of the conductance tests.

Before immersing the tester, I switched the tester ON and verified that its green battery check light illuminated. "After washing, rinsing it with water I dried it with a paper clothe, Kleenex and then let it air dry for approximately 1 - 2 minutes to ensure it was dry and I could not see any moisture on it. This is what I would do if the cover stayed loose in the future. The battery cover is not designed to be removed multiple times before it will not stay snuggly closed I suspect.

However, I'll add a few notes of caution: My testing showed only the contamination of fluid in the brake fluid reservoir. 5V to 5VDC applied on the test pins, measure the resistance to compare preset values, when the resistance about 190K or above two LEDs will be lit, when the resistance below 190K, 3 LEDs will be lit, it means 3%, more lower resistance about 170K will turn on 4 LEDs. Theoretically, the tester is accurate and stable, this is very simple tool, it firstly invert 1.
