OBDResource CP40

Advanced Automotive Circuit Probe & Electrical Diagnostic Tool

Product Overview

The OBDResource CP40 is an advanced automotive circuit probe designed for professional electrical diagnostics. It combines power circuit probing, continuity verification, polarity identification, and controlled component activation into a single, high-performance diagnostic tool.

Built for technicians who require deeper electrical insight, CP40 delivers fast, confident diagnostics across complex automotive electrical systems while maintaining a practical, workshop-ready workflow.

Product Positioning

The CP40 represents the advanced tier of the OBDResource circuit probe lineup. It is designed for technicians who need more diagnostic depth and control than traditional circuit probes, while still prioritizing speed and usability in real repair environments.

CP40 bridges the gap between basic circuit probes and complex laboratory instruments, making advanced electrical diagnostics accessible in daily shop work.

Why Choose the OBDResource CP40

Electrical faults are often misunderstood when diagnostics rely only on voltage presence. The OBDResource CP40 allows technicians to evaluate circuit behavior more confidently, helping distinguish between functional power delivery and misleading voltage readings.

This results in faster fault isolation, fewer unnecessary part replacements, and higher diagnostic accuracy.

Core Diagnostic Capabilities

Power Circuit Probing

The CP40 functions as a professional-grade power circuit probe, enabling technicians to verify power and ground conditions, identify circuit polarity, and evaluate whether a circuit can reliably deliver current.

It supports safe and controlled power application for functional testing of electrical components without relying on ECU commands.

Continuity and Circuit Integrity Testing

The CP40 enables rapid continuity testing to identify open circuits, damaged wiring, and poor connections within complex harnesses. This helps confirm circuit integrity before further disassembly or component replacement.

Polarity Identification and Ground Verification

Accurate polarity identification and ground verification are essential for diagnosing modern electrical systems. CP40 allows technicians to quickly determine circuit polarity and identify unstable or high-resistance ground paths that cause intermittent faults.

Controlled Component Activation

The CP40 supports direct activation of electrical components such as motors, relays, solenoids, and lighting circuits. This capability allows technicians to separate wiring issues from component failures, improving diagnostic confidence and reducing guesswork.

Designed for Professional Diagnostics

Broad Vehicle Compatibility

The CP40 is compatible with automotive electrical systems commonly found in passenger vehicles, trucks, diesel vehicles, and commercial fleets. It is suitable for both 12V and 24V diagnostic environments.

Built-In Electrical Protection

Internal protection mechanisms help safeguard vehicle electronics and the tool itself during diagnostic procedures. This reduces the risk of accidental short circuits or excessive current draw when testing live circuits.

Workshop-Ready Ergonomics

The CP40 features a balanced handheld design suitable for extended diagnostic sessions. Clear visual feedback allows rapid interpretation of test results, and the durable construction supports consistent daily use in professional repair shops.

Tool Comparison

Compared to basic circuit probes, the CP40 provides deeper diagnostic insight, continuity verification, controlled component activation, and improved circuit evaluation under load.

Compared to a traditional multimeter, the CP40 offers faster workflow, safer live-circuit testing, and greater efficiency for real-world automotive electrical troubleshooting.

Typical Diagnostic Applications

The CP40 is commonly used to diagnose intermittent electrical faults, power delivery issues, ground problems, non-responsive motors or relays, lighting and accessory failures, and complex wiring harness issues.
