Not all multimeters give an audible signal. Perhaps you could mention something about the actual resistance in ohms shown on the meter indicating the bulb is good and the value given is the resistance of the filament. The reading on the meter is not in full view and also blocked by your hand.

Very funny! these guys only show the bulbs with tread, that has one pin only unlike the non tread bulbs, which has two pins on the inserting in the holder part

How do you test a 4 pin bulb?

Can a UV bulb like this be tested with a multimeter? If so, how? www.amazon.com/Trojan-UV-Max-602803-Lamp/dp/B00LQK997I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1423529021&sr=8-1&keywords=Trojan+UV+Max+602803+UV+Lamp

Well we are in 2019 most people have LED lights. Any suggest testing LED light bulbs?

@AdamDIY 4 жыл бұрын

I'll make a video on that. Yes you can test them: Turn it to diode test. It looks a bit like this symbol ⨨ An LED is a "Light Emitting Diode" and diodes can be tested by hooking the probes up to the two ends of the LED. One way you should get a connection and then reverse the leads and you should get no connection. The current can only go one way in LED's/diodes.

I've got 3 brand new LED bulbs and none of them have continuity according to my multimeter, but surely they can't all be duds?!

The speaker symbol is ohms mode

@SparksFlyin 3 жыл бұрын

No the speaker symbol is NOT ohms. The “speaker” symbol is called continuity. The Omega sign is for Ohms. Which is on a basic level one in the same but continuity is not as in depth of an ohm reading as ohm is.
