7.5 Continuity Check
Warning: To avoid electric shock, never measurecontinuity on circuits or wires that have
voltage on them.
• Set the function switch to the Ω CAP
• Insert the black lead banana plug into the negative COM jack.
Insert the red test lead banana plug into the positive jack.
• Press the MODE button to indicate "
" and "Ω" on the display.
• Touch the test probe tips to the circuit or wire you wish to check.
• If the resistance is less than approximately 30Ω , the audible signal will sound. If the
circuit is open, the display will indicate "OL"

• Touch the test probes to the diode under test. Forward voltage will typically indicate
0.400 to 0.700V. Reverse voltage will indicate "OL". Shorted devices will indicate near
0V and an open device will indicate "OL" in both polarities.
