If you have never used a multimeter, see this fellow Canadian 5 minute video

My 2 seconds to black guide also has a section on multimeters and how to measure.

ok thanks. still need a battery ill have to pick one up tommorow.

when testing resitors am i suposed to use the 200 setting or the 2000 setting? and does anyone know what readout i should get it just flash's for sec then goes blank.

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

k i think its the 2000 setting i seem to be geting a reading above 500 how do i know if ones bad?

Check your fuses first. Use the continuity setting on the meter

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

allready checked the fuse. seemed to be good.

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

At this point, I would just use the continuity setting and check the diodes and capacitors for shorts. Check the diodes in both directions

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

wait i think what i was testing were the 4 diodes for the rectifier. what setting do i use to check the caps

[Cosmo66]

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

You really cant test caps in circuit. But you can check real quick to see if they are shorted

[Cosmo66]

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

Did you test the diodes using the diode setting? You need to check for opens as well as shorts

[Phaihn]

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

whats the diode setting? this multimeter has alot of settings sorryits the first time ive used one.

edit

if you were refering to the setting with the arrow symbol that was what i was useing.

how do i check if there shorted? i can remove them if i need to.

The diode setting is at 6 oclock on your meter. It has the arrow symbol with the line on it.

Re: Philips 22PFL3505D/F7 no power

ok so from what i saw in the video i think there good.

I don't see a continuity setting on your meter, so just check resistance across the pins of the capacitors. They should all read very high or out of range
