when you are upside down under dash, what is easier, tryiing to read a MM or just see the light in the test light light?

+1. Most of the time 2 test lights will do the job. Continuity light (built in battery) and a test light.
Don't ever use ohm (resistance) settings on a live circuit. Be very careful measuring current. For current measurements, meter goes in-line (in the circuit) unless you have a clamp-on meter(which I recommend)
