2. Idle air control actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idle_air_control_actuator

   The IAC allows the ECU to maintain minimum RPM irrespective of changes in engine load, sometimes referred to as anti-stall feature. Thus the driver can more easily move the car from stand-still by merely releasing the clutch (manual transmission) or the brake (automatic transmission) without having to simultaneously press the accelerator.

3. Electronic test equipment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_test_equipment

   The following items are used for basic measurement of voltages, currents, and components in the circuit under test. Voltmeter (Measures voltage) Ohmmeter (Measures resistance) Ammeter, e.g. Galvanometer or Milliammeter (Measures current) Multimeter e.g., VOM (Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter) or DMM (Digital Multimeter) (Measures all of the above)

4. Multimeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

   Any meter will load the circuit under test to some extent. For example, a multimeter using a moving coil movement with full-scale deflection current of 50 microamps (μA), the highest sensitivity commonly available, must draw at least 50 μA from the circuit under test for the meter to reach the top end of its scale. This may load a high ...

5. Solenoid voltmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_voltmeter

   Some manufacturers include a continuity test lamp function in a solenoid meter; these use the same probes as the voltage test function. This feature is useful when testing the status of contacts in energized circuits. The continuity light displays if the contact is closed, and the solenoid voltmeter shows voltage presence if open (and energized).

6. Continuity tester - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_tester

   Entry-level cable testers are essentially continuity testers. A continuity tester is an item of electrical test equipment used to determine if an electrical path can be established between two points; [1] that is if an electrical circuit can be made. The circuit under test is completely de-energized prior to connecting the apparatus. [1]

7. Electrical isolation test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_isolation_test

   In electrical engineering, an electrical isolation test is a direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) resistance test that is performed on sub-systems of an electronic system to verify that a specified level of isolation resistance is met. Isolation testing may also be conducted between one or more electrical circuits of the same ...

8. Tube tester - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_tester

   A "Sylvania Electric" multimeter tester for vacuum tubes. A tube tester is an electronic instrument designed to test certain characteristics of vacuum tubes (thermionic valves). Tube testers evolved along with the vacuum tube to satisfy the demands of the time, and their evolution ended with the tube era.

9. Continuity test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_test

   In electronics, a continuity test is the checking of an electric circuit to see if current flows (that it is in fact a complete circuit). A continuity test is performed by placing a small voltage (wired in series with an LED or noise-producing component such as a piezoelectric speaker ) across the chosen path.
