Mine doesn't have the feature with a speaker or a switch on the side; it has a button. Is mine an older version? I wish they had also installed an internal relay so you wouldn't have to pull the tool out to run the car normally.
Hi yes I would like to see how to use the U ACTIVATE on a late model Toyota tundra fuel pump control module located in the frame rail near the rear shock
Can you provide a YMM? This vehicle is likely equipped with a brushless DC pump. However, the EFI Main relay is the primary power supply for the FPCM. The FCPM receives a control signal from the ECM to tell it how much pump activity is desired. The pump may operate without a command from the ECM and I'm willing to find out. One of my technicians has a Tacoma with this set up on it so I'll see what I can discover.
Nice video. I would like more information about how that switch on the side works. I bought the new version uActivate in March of 2023 and mine has a button on the side where yours is a switch. I'm wondering what the difference in using this tool with the switch vs the button. This is the first time I have seen this version with the switch.
@@Mr2004MCSS The switch is the latest version. I had asked about a speaker and they indicated that they would be working on a solution. I recommend reaching out to them and let them know where you learned about the new built-in speaker to see what they might be able to do for you.
@@TechScottBrown I did reach out to AESwave and they explained to me how the switch works. The middle position is off. The up position is to activate the LED lights for 87 and 87a. The down position to use the speaker function. I also asked them if it would be possible to just buy the new control portion with the switch for those of us who have the version with just the button but have not heard back yet.
@@Mr2004MCSS Fyi, i have been working with them in discussions on how to get these units upgraded and I believe that there will be an offering soon. I’ll update you as soon as I get the green light.
I just received my uActivate yesterday. Is it normal to hear something inside the tester rattle a bit when it's shaken? Like a loose piece of plastic (or perhaps metal)? Thanks.
@@rrmech11 I just checked with one of the primary chiefs over there and they say that they have plenty in stock: www.aeswave.com/uTest-Advanced-Terminal-Test-Kit-p9748.html
@@jgeorges3061 Ok but that’s going to be mostly outside of the purview of what the uActivate has to offer. However, I do have some HSCAN topics I’ve been meaning to record. Stay tuned
@@philh9238 this topic would likely be outside of the scope of what the uActivate has to offer but I suspect that there are applications on the 12v side of a hybrid that the uActivate could be used. I’ll keep this in mind for future vids.
Great Video and Demo on this time saving tool. The guys at AES ALWAYS know exactly what we need 👏
I love my u-activate for any relay control circuit. Makes life easy!
Hi Scott, appreciate the video. I modify mine so I can test the relay as well with the set up. Use this tool all the time
@@djmobileautoservices I’d love to see a demo of your set up
Thanks Scott! Still have my original one. ASE Wave is great.
@@bartscave the new unit has a few cool features you might find value in. This tool (both old and new) are timesavers!

Yes, you have the original version of the new Uactivate. This is the version that I also own.

@@ronc4146 I would assume that’s not normal. Contact their support team for a resolution. They will take care of you.
For those who don't know every function available on a good DMM.

Everytime I want to purchase the aes terminal master kit, there on back order. Can you help me out.
@@rrmech11 I’ll see what I can do or find out
I bought mine in December from AESWave.

Ordered mine at the website last Fri & it arrived 2 days ago (Tuesday).
