The way mine work: 1. Press power button to turn on. Press to turn off. There is no "auto-on" where you move the scale and it powers on by itself. My guess is that this is why the battery actually lasts a long time. 2. Press the 0[]ABS button anywhere to go into "INC" mode. Where ever you enter INC mode become the new zero. Press it again to set a new zero. 3. Press and hold 0[]ABS for 5 sec to leave INC mode and return to absolute mode, where the zero is at the closed jaws. 4. Press ORIGIN for 5 sec to reset the absolute origin of the tool. This comes preset and I've never had to adjust any of mine. This button is recessed so it doesn't get pressed by accident. Mine has a rubber flap at the top covering a USB port. Never used that.

Try a dose of MiraLax daily for a few days. If that doesn't make it do #2, give me a call.

It's been a very long time since I bought any tools... used to buy everything at Sears in Landmark. Real craftsman tools. Made in America.
My big battery charger 2-wheeled cart from Sears has finally crapped out after 30+ years. It has selectors for maintenance, 6amp, 10amp, 40amp and 200amp. Also has a timer dial... I sometimes need big power for the diesel pickups. Where do I get a high quality new one? What brand? Do I need Amazon or can I go get it locally? Thanks

^ lowes has a Schumacher Electric 200-Amp 12-Volt Car Battery Charger for ~$160, sounds like what you are replacing. Similar on amazon for maybe a little less.

My search skills are lacking tonight. I need a decent oscilloscope to read sensor output or ecu output to an alternator. Nothing complex, more is the output, there, in the expected range and consistent. Found a Fluke 123 but $$$, other option is a ds0201 nano. Seems pretty common but I've they can be hit or miss. Then I see the uscope, https://www.aeswave.com/uScope-Basic-Kit-p9621.html . Seems about as basic as it can get but comes with probes and some docs.
Recommendations on a basic scope for automotive applications? Thanks

Probably overkill for your application, but I have been buying test equipment such as oscilloscopes from Rigol, Hantek, and Siglent lately.
