The Autool AS502 is a brake fluid tester. It measures the water content in brake fluid and displays it as a percentage on screen. Moisture is what renders brake fluid unusable: it seeps through the hoses and lowers the temperature at which the fluid begins to boil.
You immerse the probe in the reservoir and press the test button; after ten seconds the percentage appears. In addition to the standard setting for DOT3, DOT4 and DOT5.1, there is an expert mode with twelve manufacturer-specific DOT4 profiles, because not every DOT4 behaves the same way. The device runs on four AAA batteries and operates from −10 to +60 °C.
KEY BENEFITS
✔Measures in ten seconds and gives a percentage, not a vague assessment.
✔Expert mode with twelve manufacturer-specific DOT4 profiles, alongside standard DOT3, DOT4 and DOT5.1.
✔Probe with a 260 mm spiral cable with an outer layer of 304 stainless steel.
✔2.8-inch LCD with backlight, featuring an analogue bar and audible signal when the result is ready.
POINTS TO NOTE
✕Measures water content, not boiling point. The specification sheet provides no value for boiling point. That is a different measurement.
✕Clean the probe before each measurement. Residue from the previous vehicle will otherwise affect your result.
✕Runs on four AAA batteries and switches itself off after five minutes.
✕Brake fluid is corrosive. The manual specifies safety glasses and gloves.
Application and functionality
Brake fluid is hygroscopic: it attracts moisture through the rubber hoses, even when the system is sealed. This moisture lowers the temperature at which the fluid begins to boil, and a boiling brake line gives a pedal that feels spongy. The AS502 reveals how much moisture is present. If you want to know what the boiling point has actually become, that is a separate measurement, which the AS506 performs.
What you see on the display
- Water content: The percentage of moisture in the brake fluid.
- Assessment: Up to 2% is acceptable, between 2% and 3% replacement recommended, above 3% a warning.
- Selected fluid type: DOT3, DOT4, DOT5.1 or one of the twelve manufacturer profiles.
- Analogue bar: The measured value displayed graphically, so you can see your position at a glance.
How to perform the measurement
- Clean the probe: Dry and free of residue from the previous measurement.
- Switch the tester on: Hold the on/off button for longer than two seconds.
- Select the fluid type: Standard mode with DOT3, DOT4 or DOT5.1, or expert mode with the manufacturer profile fitted to the vehicle.
- Open the reservoir and immerse the probe: Fully submerged in the fluid itself.
- Press the test button and read the result: After ten seconds the percentage with assessment appears on screen.
Where to use it
- At the major service: Brake fluid ages through moisture, not distance; a measurement tells you more than the date on the bottle.
- Before a long descent or track day: Where brakes get hot and a reduced boiling point becomes immediately apparent.
- With a spongy brake pedal: To rule out moisture as the cause before you investigate further.
- On trade-in or purchase: A thirty-second measurement per vehicle shows whether maintenance has been kept up.

💡
Good to know: Always measure on the same spot in the reservoir for the same vehicle and record the date with the reading. A single percentage tells you little; the trend between two measurements shows how quickly this vehicle absorbs moisture.
