How To Measure -> Pots V9 laser

[TGM]

Hi guys,

As i am a great noob at electronics i was wondering if there could be a guide to measure the pots on the laser.

I understand that i need a multimeter, i have one, but i have never actually used it before...

If i sound a littke childish i'm sorry, i have learned to mod myself (the hard way),i had no experience whatsoever so...

Thanks in advance...

I have tried it several times but i can't seem to get a specific value like you do, those numbers keep on changing...

You have a digital multimeter?
Check you setted correctly the scale.
Check you setted correctly the type of measurement you are executing (ohms).
Check the batteries of the Multimeter.

If all above is OK than check with another multimeter.

OK thanks,

it turned out it was the battery ...

the first one says 1.6 and the second one 5.4.

I guess it's a bad laser then right ?

I allso measured a friends laser and it says 4.6 and 2.3 but it seems to work fine...

Again thanks for the replys...
