TOOLS
Test Light
The test light, as shown in the figure, uses a 12V bulb. The
two lead wires should
be connected
to probes.
The test light is used for simple voltage checks and for check-
ing for short circuits.
Caution

and ground
connections.
Caution

Do not connect
a jumper
wire from the power source
line to a body
ground;
this
may cause
burning
or
other
damage
to harnesses
or electronic
com-
ponents.
Voltmeter
The DC voltmeter
is used to measure
of circuit voltage.
A volt-
meter with a range of 15V or more is used by connecting

is used to measure the resistance
between two
points in a circuit and also to check for continuity
and diagno-
sis of short circuits.
Caution
