[QUOTE="Sidewinder, post: 372166, member: 9512"] There is an issue when fault finding on such faults and using say a multifunction tester. As has already been pointed out the insulation resistance range is not accurate at low values, if you have a lower voltage setting, say a meter with, 50, 100, 250, 500 & 1kV ranges then you have more chance. The low resistance range will often show open circuit @ > 2 Ohms, so between 2 Ohms and almost 10k Ohms you have no possibility of getting a true reading. Time to reach for a multi-meter really.
