If an open capacitor is checked with an ohmmeter the needle will?

How do you check a capacitor to see if it is good or bad?

There are many ways. FIRST: short the terminals to ensure it is not charged. Many of the digital meters today also have a capacitance check setting, simply use that setting. It not only checks for faults, but also will give you a reading of the capacitance value itself. For most non-electrolytic capacitors a quick check (definately bad vs. maybe good) can be done with an analog VOM. Use the highest resistance scale to measure across the terminals. When first connected there should be a short needle jump that slowly drops back to infinity. Reverse the leads and do it again, should have the same effect. Any resistance highter than infinity indicates a shorted capacitor. Lack of needle jump may indicate an open capacitor (or one of very little capacitance). Electrolytics can also be checked with a VOM, but polarity must be observed, and the drop back to infinity may take a very long time. Alternatively, for electrolytics and larger capacitors is to charge them with a low voltage source (e.g. 9V battery) and measure with multimeter to see if they hold the charge.
