If a digital multimeter displays 0000 when reading amperage what should the technician do to get a more accurate reading?
If a digital multimeter displays 0000 when measuring amperage, the technician should first check the meter's settings to ensure it's configured for the correct measurement type and range. Next, they should confirm that the test leads are properly connected and that the circuit is active, as an open circuit or a blown fuse could also result in a zero reading. If everything appears correct and the meter still reads 0000, the technician may need to test the multimeter on a known live circuit to rule out a faulty meter.
if a digital multimeter displays 000 when reading amperage, what should the technician do to get a more accurate reading?
You can always switch to milliamps for a more precise reading if necessary. Some multimeters have two As, 1 for alternating current (used for residential power and represented by the wave sign) and 1 for direct current (used in batteries and wires and represented by a horizontal line with a dotted line under it).
Why is the voltage reading always a minus figure when using a digital multimeter to measure the DC voltage from the output jacks of a cassette deck?
I would imagine that reversing the leads would rectify that. (No pun intended.)
What is internal impedence of digital multimeter?
A: [practically all commercial digital meter have a 11 mega ohm input impedance but there are special meters that can be used to measure leakage current and they have impedance high enough to measure nano amps. Even an oscilloscope will have these kinds of impedance such that the reading is not influenced by external loading
Why does every ammeter in a circuit have the same reading?
If you're connecting it properly, then I would have to guess that the multimeter is defective.
Why range multiple of 2 on digital multimeter?
If the ranges went up in multiples of 10 then reading (say) 1.05 isn't too easy to be accurate relative to the size of 1.05. So multiple ranges are provided.

What are the types of multi tester?
A Multimeter is an electronic instrument, every electronic technician and engineer’s widely used piece of test equipment. A multimeter is mainly used to measure the three basic electrical characteristics of voltage, current, and resistance. There are two types of multimeters: Analog Multimeter: The Analog Multimeter or VOM (Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter) is constructed using a moving coil meter and a pointer to indicate the reading on the scale. Digital Multimeter: We mostly used a multimeter is a digital multimeter (DMM). The DMM performs all functions from AC to DC other than analog. It has two probes positive and negative indicated with black and red color as shown in the figure. there are some best multimeters for HVAC.
How do you test the alternator in a 99 Chevy Malibu?
You will need a digital multimeter that can measure DC voltage for an accurate reading. Open the hood and connect the positive and negative multimeter leads to the positive and negative battery posts. Turn on the multimeter and make note of the battery voltage you have before starting the engine. The battery needs to be fully charged to get an accurate alternator reading. A fully charged battery should read 12.68 volts. Assuming the battery is healthy and fully charged, start the engine and let it idle. Make note of the multimeter reading. A healthy alternator should read 14.2 Volts. Now with engine still running, turn on the headlights and turn on the heater blower on high. Multimeter reading should stay above 13.8 volts. If you are below these numbers you may have a tired alternator.
What are the differences between a mounted digital kitchen scale and a standard analog kitchen scale?
The main difference between these scales it that the digital will give a more accurate and easier to read reading than figuring it out with the lines between the numbers the analog scale. However, the digital scale requires and battery and the analog does not.
How can I effectively test wires with a multimeter?
To effectively test wires with a multimeter, set the multimeter to the resistance or continuity mode. Touch the probes to the ends of the wire and check the reading on the multimeter. A low or zero reading indicates a good connection, while a high reading indicates a break in the wire.

How to test a switch with a multimeter?
To test a switch with a multimeter, set the multimeter to the resistance or continuity setting. Disconnect the switch from the circuit and touch the multimeter probes to the switch terminals. If the multimeter shows a reading of zero or close to zero, the switch is closed and working properly. If the multimeter shows an infinite reading, the switch is open and needs to be replaced.
How to test wires with a multimeter?
To test wires with a multimeter, set the multimeter to the resistance or continuity setting. Touch one probe to each end of the wire. If the multimeter shows a reading close to zero, the wire is continuous and working properly. If the reading is infinite, there is a break in the wire.
summarise the difference between reading a printed text versus reading digital text?

Where do you set the digital multimeter dial to test for 2.5 volts in a wire ie DCV20 DCV 200?
On an analog meter, it would be much easier to read and more accurate if you use the smaller scale of the DCV20 setting for a 2.5 volt reading. On a digital meter it may not be such a big deal, because the display would probably show the actual voltage readout...depending on the meter. Generally, though, use the smallest setting on the multimeter you can without going below the voltage being read.
How do you use analogue multimeter?
Set the Multilemeter to the correct scale for the Electronic application that you are working with. Make certain that the leads are in the correct recievers in the multimeter. The leads are color coded red and black for positive and negative. Take a reading and see how it compares to a normal reading. If you are working on sensors on a modern (computerized) car you can not use an analog multileter as the sensors can be damaged. Always use a digital multimeter that is 10 megohm impedance protected.
