And this means I've connected the wires correctly. So when I get a reading of 1 this means there is no connection and I have to resolder that wire? Thanks in advance. =D


Usually, if you're measuring resistance on a Digital multimeter set to 200 Ohms and you're measuring an open-circuit it will display OL on it's LCD screen, a reading of 1,or something like 0001 will mean a resistance of 1 Ohm.


Readings of less than 1 Ohm will display as 0000.
