I assume this is the meter

 

RadioShack® 29-Range Digital Multimeter

 

Model:

22-813

 

| Catalog #: 22-813

I downloaded this book, not the clearest :(

This is an auto ranging meter that should be in auto mode when turned on. Just select ohms and test. Be very sure of symbols in display during test. ohm=~0-500 ohms, Kohm=~.5k(500 ohms)-500k(500,000ohms), Mohm= simular in million ohms.

This meter also has option to lock into manual range mode. Again, watch the display. Looks like per book you would want to lock into 400ohm range for reading 0-400 ohms. Watch the symbols as above, as well as decmial point.

For very low expected readings (less than 10 ohms), short the leads together and note the reading. This is the lead resistance. Appears to be .3ohms per your post. Subtract .3ohms from test readings for actual values compared to books.

Tempature also frequently affects resistance. Usually books rated at~68F room temp. Meter should be stable at same temp.

At a minimum you have insulation damage to the wire, and it may be actually cut.

either way, go ahead and cut it at the damage.

 

Clean very well with degreaser, brake cleaner works well.

 

Slide on a piece of heat shrink tubing, can be bought at radio shack or harbor freight or electronics supply store.

 

Strip 1/4-1/2" insulation both sides of cut and solder splice the wires back together. Then slide the preinstalled heatshrink over the splice and heat to shrink.
