As an irrigation technician, I use a multimeter everyday in the field when troubleshooting residential sprinkler systems. This is huge for the DIY home owner because it is not cheap for me to make a home visit. I test voltage to make sure each solenoid is getting at least 24V. This is the minimum required to open a valve. Measure the common against the zone that is currently running. Run through each zone and make sure they are all getting required voltage (only the zone currently running should be getting voltage). If a zone won't turn on but it is getting the required voltage you are looking at a problem with the solenoid. Take an Ohms measurement with the timer turned off this time going through each zone. Again, common against each zone wire. You want to see a range of about 23-60 Ohms. If you get an OL reading, you probably have a loose connection in the manifold (Valve box) or a broken line somewhere between your timer and manifold. If the Ohms reading is below the range, Your solenoid should be replaced. Sometimes the issue comes down to the timer malfunctioning and bugging, but with these steps you can get an idea of what to focus on. Hope this helps!

Great tip on fixing irrigation. Didn't even know this was something you could do yourself. Always thought you needed a professional.

[@akuunreach3260]

Clearly not an electrician If your (black) probe were hot (120v) if you went hot to ground, that would be a ground fault So clearly this is inaccurate, unless your meter is faulty or damaged, it's completely safe to touch the probe while the other is connected to hot Also due to the nature of AC (alternating current) it does not matter which probe color goes where when taking a measurement

[@MileyonDisney]

Two minutes into the video, and I already got some IMPORTANT information - don't have a probe in the hot side without a probe in ground or neutral. I did not know that. Thanks!

[@aliancemd]

My multimeter instructions(UNI-T manual) specifically warn to connect COM first(black/ground/neutral) and then the positive side(red).

[@BarryBollox.]

Just treat them like they are both Hot, ie don't be waving one stick around when testing. Your tester is essentially adding wiring to a live circuit which is only complete when both ends are connected. And firkin dangerous when its not completed.

[@aviandragon1390]

This is nonsense. You can stick that "hot" probe up your rectum and you wouldn't feel anything besides the point. Multimeters have extremely high impedance which will block virtually all current coming through, even if you manage to accidentally complete the circuit.

HI . I am a DIYer and even though I do not have much basic home electrical knowledge, I still went ahead and bought a Klein 390 multimeter (for simple tests, heater temp. reading),your videos have been a source of refence for me, you explain things thoroughly for us simple homeowners even if they may sound repetitive /boring to seasoned electricians. one thing I would like to see is how to "prevent/avoid damages" to a multimeter ,or " things not to do with your multimeter"

Please make sure to wear insulated gloves and short your capacitor with the blade of a screwdriver before you go measuring them. The start capacitors in air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, automotive, etc. can absolutely kill you if you short them with your body. They can hold charge for weeks / months depending on the rating, so this is a MUST DO step. Stay safe.

No, you don't have to short a capacitor if it has a bleed off diode on it. It will bleed itself off as soon as it is de-energized. But if you don't know how to tell the capacitor has bleed off it is best left to a qualified professional.

I studied electrical engineering in college and purchased a Micronta multi-meter back in 1990 when I was in college and I still have it and use it today. I can promise that is the single most used tool in my entire workshop. It's an older style where I need to select the voltage range, etc. but it still works like a champ.

[@alfredomarquez9777]

YES, MICRONTA!!!! I also have a little less old Radio-Shack pair of multimeters, both made by the Korean company "METEX", and both very durable, quite inexpensive, very acceptable performance and acceptable accuracy. The older one is not autorange, but measures many things, and the less old one is autorange. They cost me 30 and 20 USD back in the middle of the 1990s, and both have DB-9 digital output that I used a lot for checking and plotting the actual discharge curve of batteries. BTW, my neighbor had a much older Micronta multimeter that has endured the test of time, probably since the early 1980s, and still works perfectly. A shame that nowadays Radio-Shack no longer has that kind of devices!

Glad to see you address capacitance. I gave a full-function DVM to my son-in-law as a thank you gift. He called with a non-functional garage door opener problem. I talked him through a safe test of the starter capacitor. Less than $10 later, all was good. Clearly the $40 meter paid for itself!

It allows me to roughly figure how much wire to run instead of having to get my measuring tape out every time. I mainly bought this one because the range of voltage it measures. The laser measurement was a huge plus.

Great tutorial covering everything you need to do for home repairs. Really you only need two function 1. voltage for batteries / AC lines and 2. continuity for fuses. That covers 99% of your home repairs. A NCV tester really comes in handy to detect live wires. Also noticed this Klein model smartly placed the amp test on the left side and everything else on the right side so you don't blow the fuse.

[@tonym6920]

I have the Klein MM2000 meter, almost identical to the one you demonstrated. I purchased it a few years ago, comes in real handy. Like you, I check the charge on my car and riding mower batteries, check the temp coming from the HVAC vents, check household batteries (AA, AAA, 9v), continuity on different things, wall outlets etc. I never used it on the cap on my heat pump, but I know there are unusually specs that tell you what the microfarad reading should read for the compressor and the fan. A multimeter is one of those tools that you continually find new uses for once you get it lol Thanks for the vid. 👍👍

[@goodun2974]

In most cases, testing household batteries with a digital voltmeter will *not* weed out weak household batteries (unless perhaps it has a dedicated battery test circuit); The high impedance of the meter will not load down the battery sufficiently to duplicate the type of conditions that the battery will encounter in most devices that it is to be used in, including many LED flashlights! I actually prefer using an old analog Simpson or Triplett Volt meter with a much lower impedance (typically 1K ohms per volt) for checking batteries, as those will load the battery more similarly to it's actual intended in-circuit usage. I also have several little analog battery checkers with hinged contacts: a modern purchased at Harbor freight, and another one that I bought at least 30 years ago. The Harbor Freight device does not reject batteries when they get weak in the same fashion that my older battery tester does, and when I examined them both and measured their loading characteristics with an ohmmeter, I found that the Harbor Freight battery tester uses a 130 ohm load resistor and the 30 year old battery tester has a 30 ohm resister inside of it! Lots of crappy batteries will "pass" when tested with the Harbor Freight device but fail when tested with my ancient battery checker that forces them to work harder..

Thanks for this. I bought a multimeter for DIY because my father had one and used it all the time, but after unboxing I realized I had no idea how to use it and it went right back into the case for A YEAR. Turns out I couldn't just read the dials and figure it out on my own, unlike many other DIY tools I have. It's not very intuitive (or maybe I'm not). I watched video tutorials but not having used one in any application, what they were saying had no meaning to me. This puts meter use in perspective and I use it pretty regularly now. Thanks!

It's good, even for us old timers to run through information. Anything gleaned can be added. Thank you.

[@tedlahm5740]

Obvious we missed the ground side when placing the probe the first time. Great information. Clear. A little cloudy on the max. voltage setting. All zeros. Thank you very much.

[@meangreen7389]

I think I understand your fuzziness on the range voltage setting. On my multimeter screen, when I select AC, the screen has four zeros. The decimal point will be just on the right of the first zero as I press the range button. Example: 0.000 This range can only read 9.999 volts. The next range is 00.00 and reads up to 99.99 volts. The next is 000.0 which will read up to 999.9 volts. The last one is 0000 or up to 9,999 volts. I only use my multimeter once or twice a year and therefore purchased an AstroAI DM6000AR.

[@etherealrose2139]

Literally not an issue. You can touch the probe in any order you wish. Also, power flows from the negative terminal to the positive so if he wanted to be "safer" he'd touch positive battery terminal first... but again it literally does not matter. Doesn't matter if you flip the leads either. It'll just show reverse polarity.

As others pointed out, Step#0 is to assure probe is NOT plugged into 10A or mA jack. Typical meters have two fuses (one dedicated to 10A circuit), but at the very least it’s unwanted nuisance to find and pay for replacement fuses. Great job communicating safety when probing receptacles - it’s Last In, First Out (LIFO) for the hot lead...
