Electrical Measurement
This is a brief description on how to performa voltage or current test with the information provided in the terminal chart for the ECM.
This information covers the basic functions and operation of the digital multimeter. Although an analog multimeter and test light may be used by a service technician,
the digital multimeter performs the more complex measurements on the newer electronic systems. Digital multimeters use the metric system, in order to make it
easier to work with large numbers.

The digital multimeter is highly accurate. The digital multimeter is used to find the precise value of any type of voltage, current or resistance. The meter is powered
by a 9 volt alkaline battery. The meter is sealed against dirt, dust, and moisture.
The meter has four main areas: the liquid-crystal-display, push buttons, rotary dial function switch, and inputs for the meter leads.
Liquid Crystal Display
The meter's liquid crystal display, or LCD, uses display segments and indicators. Digital readings are displayed on a 4000 count display with polarity () indication
and automatic decimal point placement. When the meter is turned ON, all display segments and annunciators appear briefly during a self test. The digital display
updates four times per second. When frequency readings are taken, the display updates three times per second.
The analog display is a 32 segment pointer that updates at 40 times per second. The display segments have a pointer that rolls across the segments indicating a
measurement change. The display also uses indicators to abbreviate various display modes and meter functions.
Push Buttons



The buttons on the meter are used to performadditional functions. The additional buttons are discussed later as they apply to the type of measurement taken.
When the meter is first switched on and a measurement is taken, the meter automatically selects a range. The meter will display the word "AUTO" in the upper left
corner. Pressing the range button will put the meter in manual range mode. The range scale will be displayed in the lower right corner of the meter. With each
additional press of the range button, the next increment will be displayed. Press and hold the range button in order to return to the auto range mode. The yellow button
can be used to backlight the meter display.
Rotary Switch
Various meter functions are selected by turning the meter's rotary switch. Each time the rotary switch is moved fromOFF to a function setting, all display segments
and indicators turn on as part of a self test routine. Moving clockwise fromthe OFF switch, the first three positions on the rotary switch are used for measuring AC
voltage, DC voltage, and DC millivolts. The top position is used for measuring resistance. The next position will allow the meter to check diodes. The last two
positions are used for measuring AC and DC current in amperes, milliamperes, and microamperes.
Meter Lead Inputs



Depending on the measurement that you wish to take, the meter leads must be placed in the correct terminals. The insides of theinput terminals are color coded, red
or black. The positive lead can go in any of the red inputs.
The "Com" or common terminal is used for most measurements. The black lead will always remain in the "Com" terminal.
The first input terminal that is on the left side of the meter is for measuring amps. This input is fused at 10 amps continuous (20A for 30 seconds).
The next position to the right is for measuring milliamperes or microamps (mA/A). No more than 400 mA can be measured when the rotary switch is in this
position. If you are unsure of a circuit's amperage, start out with the red meter lead in the 10 amp input jack (highest range).
The input terminal on the right side of the meter is for measuring voltage, for resistance, and for the diode test.
Overload Display Indicator
While you take some measurements, you may see "OL" displayed. "OL" indicates that the value being measured is outside of the limits for the range selected. The
following conditions can lead to an overload display:
In autorange, a high resistance reading indicates an open circuit.
In manual range, a high resistance reading indicates an open circuit or an incorrect scale that has been selected.
In manual range, a voltage reading that exceeds the range selected.
When you performa diode check, voltage readings are greater that 3 volts or the test leads are open.
Measuring AC/DC Voltage
When you use the multimeter to take voltage measurements, remember that the voltmeter must always be connected in parallel with the load or with the circuit under
test.
To measure voltage, performthe following tasks:
1. Make sure that the circuit is turned ON.
2. Place the black meter lead in the "Com" input port on the meter and the red lead in the VOLT/OHM input port.
3. Place the rotary switch in the desired position for AC or for DC.
4. Place the black meter lead on the low side or on the ground side of the component or circuit that is being measured.
5. Place the red meter lead on the high side or the positive side of the component or circuit that is being measured.


Observe the circuit in Illustration 7. The tests leads are connected in parallel across the circuit load. With a 12 volt power source connected to the load, the meter
should read a voltage drop equal to the source voltage or to 12 volts.
If the meter reads a voltage drop less than 12 volts, it would indicate that an unwanted resistance was present in the circuit. A logical process would be to measure the
voltage drop across the closed switch contacts. If a voltage reading was present, it would indicate that the switch contacts were corroded. This will require the switch
to be replaced.
Note: In actual measurements, the meter reading will not exactly equal the power source voltage because the individual wires will offer some small resistance. In
most practical applications, a voltage drop of 0.1 volts is acceptable for normal circuit wiring conditions.
The digital multimeter is a high impedance meter. This means the meter will not significantly increase the current flow in the circuit that is being measured. Always
take voltage measurements with the circuit under power. The digital multimeter is ideal for use in circuits controlled by solid state devices such as electronic
components, computers, and microprocessors.
Measuring AC/DC Current


When you use the multimeter to take current measurements, it is necessary for the meter probes to be connected in series with the load or circuit under test. To toggle
between alternating and direct current measurements, use the blue push button.
When you measure current, the meter's internal shunt resistors develop a voltage across the meter's terminals. This is called burden voltage. The burden voltage is
very low, but the voltage could possibly affect precision measurements.
When you measure current flow, the digital multimeter is designed with low resistance to not affect the current flow in the circuit. When you measure current in a
circuit, always start with the red lead of the multimeter in the Amp input (10 A fused) of the meter. Only move the red lead into the mA/A input after you have
determined the current is below the mA/A input maximumcurrent rating (400 mA).
The meter has a buffer which allows it to momentarily measure current flows higher than 10 A. This buffer is designed to handlethe surge current when a circuit is
first turned on. The meter is capable of reading 20 amps for a period not to exceed 30 seconds.
To measure current, performthe following tasks:
1. Place the black multimeter input lead in the "Com" port and the red input lead in the "A" (amp) port.
2. Create an open in the circuit by pulling the fuse, or by opening the switch.
3. Place the leads in series with the circuit so that the circuit amperage is flowing through the meter.
Note: If the current flow exceeds the rating of the fuse in the meter, the fuse will open.
4. Apply power to the circuit.
Measuring Resistance
When you use the multimeter to take resistance measurements, it is necessary to turn off the circuit power and discharge all capacitors before attempting circuit
measurements. If an external voltage is present across the component being tested, it will be impossible to record an accurate measurement.
The digital multimeter measures resistance by passing a known current through the external circuit or the component. The digital multimeter measures the respective
voltage drop. The meter then internally calculates the resistance using the Ohm's Law equation R =E/I. It is important to remember that the resistance displayed by
the meter is the total resistance through all possible paths between the two meter probes. To accurately measure most circuits or most components, it is necessary to
isolate the circuit or the component fromother paths.
The resistance of the test leads can affect the accuracy when the meter is in the lowest (400 Ohm) range. The expected error is approximately 0.1 to 0.2 Ohms for a
standard pair of test leads. To determine the actual error, short the test leads together and read the value displayed on the meter. Use the "REL" mode on the
multimeter to automatically subtract the lead resistance fromthe actual measurements.
To accurately measure resistance, performthe following tasks:
1. Make sure that the circuit or the component power is turned OFF.
2. Place the red lead in the jack marked Volt/Ohms and the black lead in the jack marked "Com".
3. Place the rotary selector in the &ohm; position.
4. Place the meter leads across the component or the circuit that is being measured.
Note: It is important that your fingers are not touching the tips of the meter leads when you are performing resistance measurements. Internal body resistance can
affect the measurement.

Note: In the circuit under test in Illustration 10, the power source is isolated fromthe circuit by opening the switch. The switch isolates the resistor fromany other
path that may affect the accuracy of the measurement. The open circuit causes the "O.L" reading as shown in Illustration 10.
