To be honest, I'm just getting into electronics. I'm working for a lady and I found out a problem in her quarter machine, one of her leads was off on the positive side of the switch, so I bought a new one. Turns out it was counter clockwise.. So I had no option but to solder the old switch with a new lead. Am I able to test this with a multimeter? I put my multimeter to Ohms and tried to measure continuity and see if my soldering job worked. I see people glue their base of solder to help keep the solder stable and not go anywhere so I did that. What is I surrounded the solder with hot glue, is that why I am not getting any reading on my multimeter on Ohms? I feel my solder job was a huge fail. Is there a way I can test my switch and see if it works before I go out there?
