Type-C Inductance Tester – Motherboard Coil Fault Detector Tool
Type-C Inductance Tester – Motherboard Coil & Circuit Fault Detector
Diagnose faulty inductors on mobile phone motherboards, circuit boards, and automotive electronics in seconds. This compact Type-C Inductance Tester uses high-sensitivity detection to instantly indicate whether a coil or inductor is functioning normally — no complex setup required. Simply plug in via the Type-C interface, press the button, bring the sensing tip close to the target component, and read the LED indicator. Green means good; no light means the inductor needs attention.
Made in Mainland China.
Key Features
- Instant LED Readout: One-button operation with a clear indicator light — lights up for a healthy inductor, stays off when a fault is detected. No guesswork, no meters to read.
- Type-C Powered: Powered via the universal Type-C interface for a reliable, modern connection compatible with most USB chargers and power banks.
- Ultra-Compact & Lightweight: Measures just 7.5 × 2.7 cm and weighs only 4 g — slips easily into a toolkit, pocket, or parts tray for bench use or on-site diagnostics.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of components can the Type-C Inductance Tester check?
A: The tester is designed to detect the operational status of inductors and coils found on mobile phone motherboards, computer circuit boards, automotive electronics, and general PCBs. It is ideal for any scenario where a quick, non-invasive coil integrity check is needed.
Q: Does the inductance tester require batteries?
A: No batteries are required. The tester is powered entirely through a standard Type-C USB cable (not included), making it easy to power from a USB wall adapter, laptop, or power bank while working at a bench or on-site.
Q: How do I know if a coil or inductor has failed?
A: When you bring the sensing tip close to a functioning inductor and press the button, the LED indicator will light up. If the indicator remains off, this signals that the inductor is malfunctioning and likely needs to be replaced. The one-button, single-LED design makes interpretation instant and straightforward.
Q: Is this tester suitable for beginners and DIY repairs?
A: Absolutely. The user-friendly single-button interface and clear LED feedback make this inductance tester accessible for hobbyists and first-time repair enthusiasts, while its accuracy and durability also make it a reliable tool for professional technicians.
