For 0.1mA to 200mA:
- Insert black lead into COM, red lead into V/Ω.
- IMPORTANT: Turn off all power to the circuit and discharge any capacitors.
- Turn the dial to Ω (Ohms). Start with the highest range (2MΩ or 200kΩ) if unknown.
- Touch probes across the component (polarity doesn't matter for pure resistance).
- Read the value. "OL" (Overload) means the resistance is higher than the selected range.
