Quickly locate faulty inductors on PC and phone motherboards without removing components. This handheld tester uses electromagnetic induction to check coil integrity in seconds, saving hours of troubleshooting time.
Repairing electronics often means guessing which component is bad. This inductance tester removes the guesswork. It works by detecting the electromagnetic field around an inductor. When the probe senses a healthy coil, a green LED lights up. No light means the inductor is damaged or open. You get a clear pass or fail result instantly.
The tool is designed for technicians who work on laptops, desktops, and mobile devices. It is powered by a CR2032 battery or USB-C, so you can use it on the bench or in the field. The compact plastic body fits in a pocket or tool pouch. A single button controls the test, making operation simple even for beginners.
By pinpointing faulty inductors fast, you reduce repair time and avoid replacing good parts. This tester is a practical addition to any electronics repair kit, especially for motherboard diagnostics.
Key Features and Benefits
- Electromagnetic induction detection that tests inductors without desoldering, saving time and preventing board damage
Who Is This For
- Laptop and desktop repair technicians who need to check motherboard inductors quickly
Usage Scenario
Mark, a laptop repair technician, had a motherboard with no power output. Instead of desoldering each inductor to test it, he used the M093 tester. He pressed the button and swept the probe over the coils. The green light stayed off when he reached one inductor near the CPU. He replaced that single component, and the board powered up. The whole diagnosis took under two minutes.
Micro Comparison
Multimeters can test inductance, but they require you to remove the component from the circuit. This tester works in-circuit, so you do not have to desolder anything. It gives a simple pass or fail result instead of a numerical reading, which is faster for quick checks. If you need exact inductance values, a multimeter is better. For rapid fault finding, this tool is more efficient.

Questions and Answers
Question: How does this tester detect a faulty inductor?
Answer: It uses electromagnetic induction. When the probe is near a working inductor, the green LED lights up. If the inductor is open or damaged, the light stays off.
Question: Do I need to remove the inductor from the board to test it?
Answer: No. The tester works in-circuit, so you can check inductors without desoldering them.
Question: What type of batteries does it use?
Answer: It uses a CR2032 button cell battery. There is also a USB-C port for powered operation.
Question: Can this tester check capacitors or resistors?
Answer: No. It is designed specifically for testing inductors and coils on motherboards.
Question: Is the tool suitable for beginners?
Answer: Yes. The single-button operation and simple green light indicator make it easy for anyone to use.
