How do you install a voltmeter in a car?
You get a properly sized low value resistance of high accuracy like 1% known resistance say 1 ohm. Then you place the wire that you want to measure in series with the resistor and place the voltmeter across the resistor. So if you have a 1 ohm resistor and the meter is reading 1 volt then you have 1 amp flowing in there. you need to unhook the negative battery cable and set your mutimeter to amps and connect it between the negetive cable and the battery and that will tell you what kind of draw you have just make sure that your multi meter is set up right You can't measure the current drawn by a car. The current is WAY to high for most meters. Most meters will only measure up to 10Amps. The first guy has the best idea. Get a 1ohm resistor and measure the voltage across it. The voltage measured divided by the resistor value equals the current consumption. If you have to use a voltmeter the first answer is right just make sure its a 5 or 10 watt resistor at least and don't turn the key definitely.Just measure for current being taken that shouldn't be. And yes you can use an ammeter to measure the current make sure its on the correct range (1 amp or 10 amp is better) and don't turn the key just check for current being drawn other than the starter and relay.If you turn the key big trouble lol.Probably burn out the meter burn yourself if using a resistor or just not good :) And don't wory about a 1% resistor 5% or 10 % is fine to just get a good idea of the amount of current.
When would a numbered list be used instead of a bulleted list?
When you are trying to add key information.
What is key data structure?
Key datastructure is a data statucture or container which keeps key value pair. For a search the key is passed to check that the key is present in DS or not.
What is a key development?

What is the common ohms resistance on a 94 Buick Lasabre key pellet chip VIN?
try a 100k rehostat for finding optimal value.
Will a 1998 Corvette BCM fit a 1999 Corvette?
ONLY if it matches the correct resistance in your pellet in the key. There are 15 different values of resistance the key CAN have. When a BCM is first put in the Corvette it will read this key resistance value. SOOOOO- the BCM is forever embedded with this key value and can NOT be changed (maybe if it rebuilt by a place like Cardone- but I dont know about this and have never read this in any corvette forums). So theoretically 1 out of every 15 BCMs can be put in any corvette assuming that all corvettes have a random distribution of key pellet resistance values. Just another way of saying you have a 1 in 15 chance of success putting a BCM in another Corvette
What is the Pellet of a key?
its the resistor in the key that enables the vehicle to start
What is a key vat?
A VATS (Vehicle Anti-Theft System) key has a resistance chip on the key which is read through the ignition. If the resistance matches the computer then the vehicle will be allowed to start.
Where can i find the key code and resistance value of a 1989 camaro rs. lost only key i have?
the dealer can tell your resistance code from the VIN. but with no key to make a copy from, you might have to replace the tumbler then get a key copied.
Why is the 98 Chevy Lumina security light on and will not start?
In the key there is a small pellet that is a resistor set to a value that the engine management computer is looking for. If the pellet is dirty or wet the car will not start. Clean the key with WD40 or alcohol and dry it well. Then try to start the car. If no good spray the key lock where the pellet contacts are with Radio shack tuner cleaner (or electrical contact cleaner) if still no go contact a GM dealer for repairs.
What is a pass key security system?
The Pass-Key, Pass-Key II, or VATS, as it's called in earlier GM vehicles, uses a resistor mounted in the key blank to confirm that the correct ignition key is being used to start the engine. Many people call the resistor pellet a "chip" due to the common misconception that it is some sophisticated digital circuit to identify the key to the car. Not quite. It is not a "chip" of silicon as is customarily used for integrated circuits, but merely a block of carbon appropriately sized to have a desired electrical resistance.

What is the function of pellet mill?
Pellet mills and grinders can be defined as key equipments for feed production. The function and the arrangement determine the value of feed production lines directly. Under the same formula and technology, which can raise the integrated success of pellet mills and grinders, meanwhile, gain direct economic benefits for feed plants
