thats how i did it and everyone that i worked with did it when i did auto electric work for a living.

the MM is fused. if you blow the fuse, it will not work. another reason we used test lights. MM were too expensive to use all the time, not to mention combersome.

make sure the scale you have selected is not too hi for the current draw. if you have it set to "A" and not "mA", you will likely read "0".
