CONTINUITY CHECK
WARNING:
To avoid electric shock, never measure
continuity on circuits or wires that have voltage on them.
1. Set the function switch to the position.
2. Insert the black test lead into the negative COM terminal
and the red test lead into the positive

audible signal will sound. If the circuit is open, the display
will indicate “OL”.
DIODE TEST
