Electrical System

Measuring Voltage Drop

The following test determines the difference in voltage
potential between two points.

1. Set the rotary dial of the DMM to the V (DC) position.

2. Connect the (+) positive lead (1) of the DMM to one

point of the circuit to be tested.

3. Connect the (-) negative lead (2) of the DMM to the

other point of the circuit.

4. Operate the circuit.

5. The DMM displays the difference in voltage between

the two points.

Testing for Continuity

The following procedures verify good continuity in a
circuit.

With a DMM

1. Set the rotary dial of the DMM to the Ohm position.

2. Disconnect the power feed (i.e. fuse, control module)

from the suspect circuit.

3. Disconnect the load.

4. Press the MIN MAX button on the DMM.

5. Connect one lead of the DMM to one end of the

circuit to be tested.

6. Connect the other lead of the DMM to the other end

of the circuit.

7. If the DMM displays low or no resistance and a tone

is heard, the circuit has good continuity.

With a Test Lamp

Note: Only use the test lamp procedure on low
impedance power and ground circuits.

1. Remove the power feed (i.e. fuse, control module)

from the suspect circuit.

2. Disconnect the load.

3. Connect one lead of the test lamp to one end of the

circuit to be tested.

4. Connect the other lead of the test lamp to battery

positive voltage.

5. Connect the other end of the circuit to ground.

6. If the test lamp illuminates (full intensity), then the

circuit has good continuity.
