Product details
The Scout Recon is a professional-grade, portable trailer wire testing solution designed for mechanics, trailer manufacturers, fleet operators, and anyone who tows a trailer and demands accuracy, convenience, durability, and most importantly safety. This all-in-one diagnostic tool allows you to test any standard 7-pin trailer connection without needing a tow vehicle — saving time, effort, and guesswork.
Powered by your standard DeWalt or Milwaukee 20V or 18V tool battery, the unit delivers reliable circuit testing for turn signals, marker lights, electric brakes, back-up lights, and 12V circuit. The integrated 6-button wireless remote puts full control in your hands, allowing you to walk around the trailer while activating each function independently for quick visual inspection.
Built inside a rugged, impact-resistant enclosure, the test box is engineered for shop, roadside, and field use. Its intuitive layout and color-coded indicators make operation simple and efficient, even for first-time users.
