AUTOOL AS502 Digital Brake Fluid Tester
Brake Fluid Water-Content Tester for DOT3, DOT4 & DOT5.1
Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point and reduces braking performance under heavy use. The AUTOOL AS502 checks the water content of brake fluid in seconds and shows a clear pass, warning or replace result, so you know when a brake fluid flush is due.
Dip the flexible probe into the master cylinder reservoir, select the fluid type and read the water content on the 2.8-inch backlit screen. Expert mode adds settings for 12 popular DOT4 brake fluid brands.

Main Features
- Water content reading: shows moisture as a percentage, not just a colour or light.
- Three-level result: 0–2% pass, 2–3% warning, above 3% replacement suggested.
- DOT3, DOT4 and DOT5.1: normal mode covers the common glycol-based brake fluids.
- Expert mode: settings for 12 DOT4 brands including MOTUL, ATE, BOSCH, CASTROL, TRW and BREMBO.
- Flexible 260 mm probe: gooseneck probe with a 304 stainless steel outer hose reaches into the reservoir.
- Result in 10 seconds: quick enough to check on every service.
- 2.8-inch backlit screen: easy to read in the engine bay.
- No test strips: reusable, with no ongoing consumables.
- Auto power-off: after 5 minutes of inactivity.
Important Notes
- This is a water-content screening test, not a wet boiling-point measurement.
- For brake fluid only. Not for engine oil, transmission fluid or power steering fluid.
- Select the correct fluid mode, and clean the probe before and after each test.
- Runs on 4 × AAA batteries.
Package Includes
- 1 × AUTOOL AS502 brake fluid tester with flexible probe
