Touch

 

the

 

test

 

probe

 

tips

 

across

 

the

 

circuit

 

or

 

part

 

under

 

test.

 

It

 

is

 

best

 

to

 

disconnect

 

one

 

side

 

of

 

the

 

part

 

under

 

test

 

so

 

the

 

rest

 

of

 

the

 

circuit

 

will

 

not

 

interfere

 

with

 

the

 

resistance

 

reading.

 

4.

 

Read

 

the

 

resistance

 

in

 

the

 

display

 

and

 

then

 

set

 

the

switch

 

to

 

the

 

lowest

   

position

 

that

 

is

 

greater

 

than

 

the

 

actual

 

or

 

any

 

anticipated

 

resistance.
