Distilled Waters Run Deep Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Cheap? Thrifty? -I bought these (2 for the price of 1 £6.99!) -but as with many technological marvels I haven't a clue how to use it... that makes me double-clueless... I can do the wiring up of test plugs (female bullets, methinks -does anyone know if there's any danger to components if I solder them in?) & I even realise that the dmm's probes have rubber safety caps to remove before I can get a reading (!) -but can someone tell me what range to set the dial to? I'm guessing 200m on the V scale, but I don't want to fry anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 2000m (or really 2000 mV) is suitable for measuring TPS base and idle. You could use the 200mV range for base TPS but it's better to use one range for both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distilled Waters Run Deep Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Thanks again Raz, I have a sensible reading at last. I opted for scotchblock connectors wrapped in insulating tape near the ecu, which on my bike lives under the side-panel -fairly out of the Welsh weather (salty coastal winds, & British councils throw salty grit all over the roads in Winter) cheers, Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
