To use an auto circuit tester, first, ensure the vehicle is turned off and the circuit you want to test is accessible. Connect the tester's negative lead to a good ground, then touch the positive lead to the circuit or component you wish to check. If the circuit is functioning properly, the tester will indicate continuity or voltage through a light or sound signal. Always refer to the specific tester's manual for detailed instructions and safety precautions.

What does it mean when the circuit tester light does not come on when touching the black and white wires?

It could mean two things. The first thing would be that the tester is not working. Test on a circuit that you know to be energized. The second thing causing a tester not to light is that the circuit under test is de energized. When using these types of testers always test the black to white wire and then black to ground wire. If the tester indicates there is a voltage to ground and not the white then the neutral white wire is open somewhere in the circuit.
