Default Resistance Question

On 23 May 2004 22:33:59 GMT, something compelled
(C1gmlm), to say:

My electronic module went bad on my Cold Machine and the shop suggested that I
check the resistance of the compressor. When I check the resistance between 2
of the points my meter shows .8 ohms. When I touch the 2 leads of the tester
together I get a .4 reading. Do I subtract .4 from the original reading to get
the true resistance in the compressor? I have 3 different points to to check.
Thanks


Zero the ohm meeter before each test. There should be a knob or
something.
