Little help. I am multimeter challenged. If I am checking for a bad ground (fuse B2) Do I set the MM on ohm's, put the red probe on the positive side of the fuse in question and the black to a good ground, then begin unplugging components till I find the one that creates a drop in reading on the MM? Im looking for 0 or 1-2 reading on the MM, right?:confused:
Thanks for the help. :stupid:

More then likely if I recall correctly that is you are look for a short that is causing B2 to blow.... in which case you have two choices in my opinion...

Option 1 not the best choice. Put a very large fuse in and see what burns up.

Option 2, Perform a continuity test on the wire/wires in question here is some good reading on MM http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=63647
