78 and 88V Automotive Meters
The right meters for auto-electric diagnosis
Perhaps the most important tool you'll use
in troubleshooting auto electrical systems
is the multimeter. Basic multimeters
duty cycle, make diode tests, and
measure temperature, pressure and
vacuum.
measure voltage, current and resistance,
while automotive multimeters like the
Fluke 78 or Fluke 88V have features that
can check things such as frequency,
