a multimeter might also come in handy. $20 from jaycar or dickies or tandy will get you something that will come in handy over and over for the car and around the house

Thanks for the help guys but this is thread is old.

And I would not go near a $20 multimeter. I have A normal Bluepoint multimeter and a automotive Fluke multimeter, Not cheap but there good and can do every thing I need them for :D

I could have worked it out easy done it befor to other cars but I knew some one here would know so I asked to save my self time. :D

Man I must be hungover I have edited this 2 times to fix my speeling :D but knowing me there would still be some there. :D

why wouldnt you go near a $20 one? all you need to know is if it has 12volts on it or if its ground for a car. who gives a shit if its 0.5v out? ur not exactly using it for scientific experiments. its a car for god's sake, you dont need to spend $1500 on a fluke multimeter to check shit on a car.

If your looking at input or out put signals from a ECU 0.5v is a lot. And cheap multimeters dont have the functions or the range of beter ones.

If I have a fault at work and the workshop manual says it has to have say a 0.2v too 0.4v earth at pin 22 you have to be right when the part can be worth thousands.

I did at that stage But wasent going to do it for a week or two so I asked to save time and as I said befor I knew someone would know so I did'nt have to find out my self. :D :D.

I've since put that shit house no name HU in the bin (due to it being so cheap evan with the CD on the arial would go up) and got a Sony but thats a wast of money as I hardly ever have the radio or cd on. :D

Any way it's all good.

I had a Sony a while ago, to replace the Mitsibishi HU that was supplied with the car (japanese HU without Aus FM).

Some kind hearted soles decided to rid me of the Sony one night, they where so nice, they even removed the HU from the car at about 2am, didn't charge for labour of nothin, even took my crappy DELL laptop fromt he boot for me as well, I struck gold that night, got rid of all the shit branded useless crap in my car.

I now have a nice JVC HU, nicer Kicker speakers, and MTX subwoofer....;

Anyway On-Topic,. stereo installs are dead easy in cars, but if your planning on using a multi-meter for anything else other than acar, JayS14 is right, leave the cheap Multimeter for the nOObs, and get something you know you will be able to rely on...

I have a cheap multimeter from work which only needs to read between 5 volts and 240 volts in both AC and DC, this does the job for car electrical at the moment, but when reading voltages from the AFM, I did find that it's a fraction out (not enough that I care about it).
