    Re: Digital Multimeter will not record resistance

    From Nov 1 to 7, the dmm you bought is now on sale for $23.99 (it is not as low as the $14.99 or $19.99 that I have seen)

    If you paid full retail price of $59.99, take the receipt/bill back to Canadian Tire and they should offer you the difference. I beleive they have a 30 day price protection.

    The $35 you get back may buy you a Fluke 77 IV in the future.

        Radio Shack Digital Multimeter Cat # 22-811
        by CapSnap123
        I'm trying to fix a digital multimeter. It was working until I blew the fuse (actually the "buzz" for continuity wasn't working). I've now replaced the fuse but it's acting strangely. When I turn the dial to V, nothing happens. But when I turn to anything else, it makes a continuous, very fast clicking sound - like the piezo buzzer is trying to do something. And at each position of the dial (other than V) there are brief flashes of life on the LCD. It doesn't seem to matter if the probes are connected. I wasn't sure where to start, so I've tested most of the diodes and cleaned the...

        GTX 1080 TI Gigabyte Aorus low resistance on vmem
        by cind12
        Hi guys, i was wondering, i've got 9Ohms on Vmem, one of the mosfet was shortet to ground, so i've desoldered hi and low mosfets nad still low res, then i removed all of the memory chips, and the resistance is still low, so did you had maybe a card with that low res on memories, and the card was working fine ?
        Removed the U1866Q and still without result, i dont have thermal cam so can't see where is hot spot when incjeting voltage.
        The resistance on core is ok 0.1Ohm ((Power 0.8V when on)
        Resistance on 12V 4K ohms (Power present when on)
        Resistance on 12V PEX 4K ohms...

        Beckman Industrial/(later Wavetek) Digital Multimeter DM27XT Repair
        by mholin
        Was testing to see if a bug zapper grid voltage (=< 2800VDC) had discharged yet. Set meter to highest range (1000 VDC) and probed across the grid. Heard an audible arc so voltage must have discharged into something in the front end of the meter. Now all functions that use the V-Ohm/Com input just reads "OL" (over range). Even the continuity test with the probes shorted reads OL with no beep. Opened it up and found input resistor R31 47 ohms, completely open. Replaced with new resistor but meter still reads "OL". The low battery icon on the display is visible even...

        Lowest possible resistance on laptop motherboard rail - Guide Table request
        by Nagy Daniel
        Hi, I'm Daniel, and I'm new to the world of repairing motherboards.

        I would like to create a table, or more likely a guideline about the voltage rails and their possible resistance rail.

        I know that the motherboard design has a very big depend on the rail's resistance, but I would like to know what is the smallest value for a rail that can be acceptable. For example, I heard that some new gaming motherboards can have 0,5 Ohm resistance on the GPU rail, but on an older type, it could be a sign of a shorted GPU rail.

        So, I generated a table with AI so I can...

        Help identify this motor
        by mikey5791
        Hi all forum members,
        Found this unknown motor discarded in a junk yard and took home for learning experience. By the look of it, I suspect it is taken out from a type of air blower probably running on ac power. I used digital multimeter on ohm/resistance scale and it doesn't read anything on those 2 black wires. So, this motor is not shorted and should be good to run.

        Correct me if i am wrong on the initial test.
        Can anyone kindly advice on how to test run this motor based on visible external two black wires. Fyi, i don't see any marking on the motor body nor smell anything...
