tecMate IgnitionMate Analyser

The TecMate IgnitionMate Analyser helps you diagnose ignition performance by measuring peak primary and secondary voltages from a single cylinder. You use its dual LED bargraph displays, high-voltage pick-ups and primary test leads to read ignition pulses, spark current and triggering signals without removing or disturbing any components.Discover the key features of this analyser:Dual LED Bargraph Displays: Two independent 40-LED high-brightness bargraphs use fast-sampling electronics to capture and display peak voltages in real time, giving you a clear view of how primary and secondary signals behave under load, allowing you to compare both signals simultaneously and helping you identify patterns such as weak coil saturation or inconsistent spark output.Secondary High-Tension Measurement (10, 20, 40 kV Scales): The caliper pick-up measures peak kV between the coil and spark plug using insulated silicon cabling and a high-voltage sensing circuit designed for short-duration pulses, giving you accurate readings of coil output strength and allowing you to detect issues such as insulation breakdown or reduced spark intensity.Spark Current Monitoring: The analyser measures spark current consistency using circuitry that tracks the high-voltage waveform as the spark crosses the plug gap, allowing you to see variations in current flow and helping you locate misfires, intermittent breakdowns and weak sparks that affect combustion reliability.Primary Low-Tension Voltage Measurement (10, 40, 400 Vpk Scales): The silicon test leads and insulated crocodile clips connect to the ICU, power feed, timing pick-up, coil primary terminals and interlock switches, allowing the analyser to detect primary triggering signals and voltage peaks so you can assess timing accuracy, switching behaviour and the integrity of low-tension wiring.Signal Selection and Sensitivity Controls: Selector switches give you access to SPARK mode, 20 kV mode and a range of primary voltage scales, while the SPARK sensitivity adjustment fine-tunes the analyser s response to weak or irregular pulses, giving you better clarity when working on different ignition types such as AC-CDI, DC-CDI, transistor systems, magnetos or points-based setups.Polarity Detection for kV Signals: The analyser identifies negative and positive polarity signals generated by different coil designs, allowing you to confirm correct coil operation and helping you verify wiring arrangements on both single-output and dual-output coils.Rechargeable Power System: The 7.2V NiMH battery provides about six hours of use and accepts a 12V DC supply from external equipment through the supplied 200cm lead, allowing you to work indoors or outdoors for extended periods and ensuring you have continuous power during longer diagnostic sessions.Comprehensive Kit and Protective Holster: The rubberised holster shields the analyser from everyday workshop handling while the kit s silicon leads, stick-coil adaptor, back probes, spark cable caliper pick-up and carry case give you a complete set of accessories to test different ignition layouts and keep the equipment organised for routine use.You use this analyser to study ignition performance in detail because it shows high- and low-voltage behaviour together, helping you trace irregularities such as weak sparks, unstable triggering and misfires. Its ability to capture peak voltages without disconnecting components supports faster checks when you are working on built-up engines, compact motorcycle layouts or small power-sports vehicles. This makes the analyser a valuable addition to your workshop setup, providing a smart choice for thorough ignition diagnostics and giving you dependable support during everyday maintenance and troubleshooting.
