Need to find a ground in my truck. Will this unit do it.

Your question is really short on detail, but unless your truck is from Mars the entire truck is ground! Typically, if you are attaching a 'ground' wire, make sure to scrape away any paint and it is suggested you use a toothed lockwasher to keep good contact. Any 'ohms' setting on any meter can be used to check but you must first remove the power (battery) or the readings are useless. Connect one lead to negative battery lead and touch almost anywhere on the truck chassis and you should ideally read '0' ohms, though, even with the two leads shorted you may never get that low.

Probably will but you don't really need a clamp on ammeter to do that. A basic multi meter will work fine for chasing grounds. This unit does have multi meter functions incorporated as well as the clamp on current capability.

Agree with John Schanben's answer, You can trouble shoot a circuit for breaks or shorts with a less expensive meter. If you like the advanced features, its a great deal. If you are doing basic continuity and readings, shop a little. I've got a few ten dollar to twenty dollar meters that are good for basic stuff.

It needs the burried wire, this just doesn't have it. The unit would hook up to wire if you already had wire installed. It won't work at all if you don't have the wire.

It depends on how high your truck is now. You might want to carry some blocks to put on the ground under the jack.

Yes if you connect only the line and neutral to the unit and unit is not grounded in through its mounting. I mounted this unit in a car, which is obviously not connected to the earth ground because of the tires. During a power outage, I plug a 10AWG extension cord into the unit. The line and neutral of the extension cord are wired to a power transfer switch (not the ground wire as mentioned earlier). I have powered the house this way without tripping the CFCI outlet on the unit.

Yes it will, as long as you identify the ground wire and turn signal lead wire.

You still need to run a ground. This product just taps into an existing hot (positive +) fuse location on your fuse block. Your red positive hot wire will connect to this product.

Will work as long as proper ground. Instructions state the item will not function if not properly grounded.

Yes it will. I bought to use on an off-road rig and the trailer that carries it. I have accidentally exceeded 80Psi and the unit had no issues.

It is a common ground system. The only issue, I was installing in a used RV I bought and was unfamiliar with the wiring system the connectors did not match. I was also surprised at the quality. It is a poor design that has not improved in the ten years between my old one and the new one. Once I got the wiring figured out the unit functioned so I really can't give it a poor review.

Most likely it will short out and try to burn your truck to the ground like it did mine. Stop. Run away and forget you ever heard of this brand.

Yes it will. Unfortunately I discovered a dangerous level coming from my fuse box.

There is a way to ground it, but you must do it through a separate amp. Hope this helps!

Yes. It has no ground post. All your circuits for this fuse block must be grounded elsewhere.
