Innova 5568 Pro Digital Timing Light — LED Display, Digital Advance, 2/4‑Cycle Compatible

The Innova 5568 Pro Digital Timing Light is a heavy-duty, shop-grade timing and ignition diagnostic tool with digital advance, tachometer, dwell and voltage readouts for 2- and 4-cycle engines.

Designed for mechanics and advanced DIYers, the Innova 5568 combines a rugged, shock-resistant housing with a clear backlit display and a slim rotating barrel to help you aim precisely at timing marks even in tight engine bays. Its multi-function digital readout and patented skip circuitry allow you to measure engine RPM, ignition advance, dwell angle and system voltage across most ignition systems—conventional, DIS, electronic and computer-controlled—on domestic and import vehicles.

How does this timing light make setting ignition timing faster and more accurate?

The Innova 5568 gives immediate numerical feedback so you can see RPM, advance degrees and dwell in real time rather than estimating from a strobe alone. The rotating barrel and bright LED screen improve visibility and aim, reducing guesswork when aligning the timing mark.

• Digital advance readout for precise degree measurements (0–90°).
• Tachometer range covers 249–9,990 RPM for wide engine compatibility.
• Slim rotating barrel for better access and targeting of timing marks.
• Backlit display for clear viewing in low-light engine compartments.

What ignition systems and engines are supported by the Innova 5568?

This tool works across a broad range of ignition types including conventional points, electronic ignition, DIS and modern computer-controlled systems. It supports both 2-cycle and 4-cycle engine timing without requiring adapter changes, making it suitable for cars, light trucks and many small engines.

• Switchable 2-cycle and 4-cycle timing modes.
• Compatible with DIS, electronic, conventional and computer-controlled ignitions.
• Useful for domestic and import vehicles and many small engines.
• Inductive pickup avoids direct spark plug contact, simplifying hookup.

What durability and convenience features help in a busy shop environment?

The 5568 Pro is built to withstand daily workshop conditions with a reinforced ABS housing and a molded boot that shields the tool from fan blades and knocks. Detachable leads and a compact storage case keep your work area organized and protect the unit between jobs.

• Heavy-duty, shock-proof ABS housing with molded protective boot.
• Detachable 6-foot leads with an inductive pickup for flexible positioning.
• Includes a molded plastic storage case for safe transport and storage.
• Patented skip circuitry supports testing at high RPMs up to 9,990 RPM.

How do the instrument's readings help diagnose ignition and charging issues?

By showing RPM, advance degrees, dwell angle and voltage on a single display, the timing light helps you pinpoint ignition timing errors, irregular firing and charging faults quickly. These numerical values make comparisons to manufacturer specs straightforward, improving troubleshooting speed.

• Tachometer helps verify engine speed during adjustments and tests.
• Dwell measurement (0–180°) assists with distributor and contact point checks.
• Voltage readout (10–16 VDC) reveals charging or battery supply problems.
• Numerical outputs reduce ambiguity when following service manuals.

Who this is for: The Innova 5568 Pro is ideal for professional mechanics, service technicians and experienced car enthusiasts who need a rugged, multi-function timing and ignition diagnostic tool for regular shop use. If you require precise advance and dwell readings, broad ignition compatibility and a product built to endure workshop conditions, this timing light delivers the measurements and durability to get the job done reliably.
