    I have watched so many videos on testing fuses with multimeter (another methods). This is the first one I have found that truly explains what to do for beginners! A lot of these people assume that we know what the hell they're talking about. On the other hand, you have explained things very well. Thank you for all of your help!

      Thank you! Haha, awesome to hear! Multimeters don't always get used a lot, but when you need them, you need them.

    Not to be a 5VZ-FE snob, but i mean…it lends credibility. 👏👏
    Trying to chase down turn signal fuse issues on my 99 unicorn 4runner, and so…nice to see similar to what I’m working on. 😎👍

    Excellent video. So question. If you have a fuse that is bolted to the positive battery. For instance on my Kia Sedona I have a 60 AMP Cooling Fan Fuse. There is also a 150 AMP Fuse for the Alternator that is bolted down there as well. The rest of the fuses are in the fuse box. Would I just put my Digital Test Meter Positive Side on the Metal Side that gets bolted and take the black terminal & put on a piece of metal to see if it has a reading? I am using a Digitial Multimeter

    Is it best to hold the metal stem of the tester while testing, or the handle? ))

    Hi, can i test continuity without removing the fuse if the ignition is not on? (car key removed) or maybe disconecting the car battery ?

    Hey why didn't the starter the 7.5 fuse lights up when u test it

    • @4DIYers
      @4DIYers  10 месяцев назад +1

      The circuit wasn't activated which is why it didn't illuminate.

    You mean I shouldn't use the fuses I bought from Princess Auto? They must be good, I paid $20.00 for 500 of them!

    Why there is no power on both sides of the fuse although the switch is on and the fuse is not blown????

    • @4DIYers
      @4DIYers  Год назад

      Could be a faulty relay. You'll need to check the circuit on a wiring diagram to determine what exactly the whole circuit consists of.

    Can’t you just test for continuity?
