Continuity between positive and negative battery cables.
Ask your own subaru question.
Again you should see a reading of 0 3 volts or less to be.
The battery is at 11 96v and has 0 ohms of resistance between the negative and positive terminals.
Test the negative battery cable by using the same procedure as above for the positive cable but this time you will have the red lead of the multimeter touching the metal housing of the starter motor and the black lead of the multimeter connected to the negative battery terminal.
You need to measure current draw with everything turned off and the doors closed.
The switch is turned off and i have no alarm.
Joe measuring resistance across the cables won t tell you anything.
Shorted diodes in the.
When we connect the positive and negative terminals to a multimeter we have continuity should we have continuity when there is no battery hooked upand the alternator is not installed it is certainly possible that you have.
Then disconnect the negative battery cable if it was not already disconnected and with your meter set to amps touch one lead to the negative battery post and the other lead to the negative battery cable and take a reading.
One very common culprit is the voltage regulator.
Connect the positive battery cable to the battery.
Less than 05a is acceptable.
