I have the same problem...here's my 2=A2 solution: =46irst, to read amps (what you need to do to look for a current drain) your multimeter must be in the circuit, not accross it --i.e.--> The ammete

Another way: First disconnect anything that you know is a constant drain (clock, radio, alarm, etc.) Put the meter in series with the battery and pull one fuse at a time, then read the meter and repl

Dumb question from the unenlightened, electrically: Does a standard multimeter have a setting for 'ammeter' on it, or is this a separate entity? Thanks... -- Michael S. Lishego St. Andrews Presbyteri

Mike, it does but it's in milliamps which might stress the meter a bit much. Try to get a working ammeter somewhere. The easist way is to whip down to the neighborhood wrecking yard and pull one from

'Multimeter' usually refers to a multi-function or 'multi-range' meter i.e. one that includes Amps Volts and Ohms (Hence 'AVO', BTW). A simple check for current flow where you don't have to worry abo
