SISCO auto machanical stethoscope uses special headphones to adjust the volume and monitor the source of abnormal sound. It has four channels that simultaneously detect different sources of noise in different locations. This engine stethoscope This engine stethoscope with a rotary switch which is used to adjust the sensitivity of the abnormal sound indicator light.
The Mechanic's Stethoscope Features Multi-Channel Sound Indicator Panel
- Multi-channel selector knob with clear position indicator allows quick switching between different sensor channels (CH1–CH4) for precise sound source comparison.
- Intuitive rotary control design ensures smooth operation and easy adjustment even when wearing work gloves.
- High-contrast labeling and LED indicators provide clear visual feedback of the active channel and operating status.
- Optimized sensitivity control helps isolate subtle mechanical sounds from background engine noise for more accurate fault detection.
- Ergonomic knob shape offers better grip and precise control during fine-tuning of sound levels.
The Machanical Stethoscope Equipped with Comfortable, High-Quality Headphones
- High-Quality Headphones for Clear Sound Amplification: The stethoscope comes equipped with comfortable, high-quality headphones that deliver clear, amplified sound. The headphones help users hear subtle mechanical noises, such as bearing wear, engine misfires, or exhaust leaks, ensuring precise diagnostics.
- Enhanced Sound Detection: The stethoscope’s design is optimized for detecting faint sounds, such as mechanical vibrations or irregular noises, that are often undetectable with the naked ear.
- Comfortable and Adjustable Fit: The adjustable headphone ensures a comfortable fit for prolonged use, reducing strain during long periods of diagnostics.
- Compact, Ergonomic Design: Designed with ergonomics in mind, the device is lightweight and easy to handle, reducing operator fatigue during extended diagnostic sessions.

Tips: What types of faults can the automotive engine mechanical stethoscope detect?
An automotive engine mechanical stethoscope can detect a wide range of mechanical faults by amplifying abnormal sounds and vibrations from specific components. Common issues it helps identify include:
- Worn or damaged bearings: Produces grinding, rumbling, or whining noises.
- Valve train problems: Ticking or clicking sounds from faulty valves, lifters, or camshafts.
- Engine knocking and piston slap: Deep knocking noises indicating loose or worn internal parts.
- Faulty fuel injectors: Irregular clicking or inconsistent operation sounds.
- Gearbox and transmission wear: Whining or grinding during rotation.
- Water pump or alternator failure: High-pitched squealing or rough spinning noises.
- Loose or misaligned components: Rattling or vibrating sounds.
- Timing chain or belt issues: Slapping or repetitive rhythmic noise.
