this is real beginners stuff, but i am electrically challenged. i am trying to measure the voltage at coil looking for 12v on the pos and 0 to 12v as the points open and close (for those who have been following my progress, or the lack of thereof) the petronix is history, but i digress, so how is this done. to test the pos do i set the meter to 20 dc, attach red lead to pos on the coil and black lead to ground? and to test the neg is it red lead to neg on the coil and black lead to ground.
thanks to all for you future patience. happy memorial day (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) |
