Electrical Circuit Testing System

An electrical circuit testing system being configured to place a load on a selected circuit thereby diagnosing problems in the circuit, said system comprising:

• an automotive diagnostic unit being configured to be electrically coupled to an electrical circuit in a vehicle;
• a housing being configured to be gripped;
• a pair of inputs, each of said inputs being coupled to said housing, each of said inputs being configured to be placed in electrical communication with an electrical circuit in a vehicle, said pair of inputs including a negative input and a positive input, said negative input being configured to be electrically coupled to a ground in the electrical circuit, said positive input being configured to be electrically coupled to a voltage source in the electrical circuit wherein said pair of inputs is configured to replace a selected electrical component in the electrical circuit in the vehicle;
• a processor being positioned within said housing, each of said inputs being electrically coupled to said processor;
• a voltmeter being coupled to said housing, said voltmeter being electrically coupled to said processor wherein said voltmeter is configured to detect voltage in the electrical circuit in the vehicle;
• a display being coupled to said housing wherein said display is configured to be visible to a user, said display being electrically coupled to said processor, said display displaying indicia, said indicia comprising numbers indicating the voltage in the electrical circuit in the vehicle;
• a load circuit being positioned in said housing, said load circuit being electrically coupled to said processor wherein said load circuit is configured to selectively place an electrical load on the electrical circuit in the vehicle, said automotive diagnostic unit selectively commanding the electrical circuit to activate wherein said load circuit is configured to simulate normal operation of the selected electrical component in the electrical circuit in the vehicle, said display displaying voltage corresponding to current in the electrical circuit in the vehicle,
• a knob being rotatably coupled to said housing wherein said knob is configured to be manipulated, said knob being electrically coupled to said load circuit is such that said knob adjusts an operational range of said load circuit with respect to resistance placed on the electrical circuit in the vehicle;
• a switch being coupled to said housing wherein said switch is configured to be manipulated, said switch being electrically coupled to said processor such that said switch turns said processor on and off;
• and
• a power supply being removably positioned in said housing, said power supply being electrically coupled to said processor, said power supply comprising at least one battery.
