1. Continuity Checkers
The easiest way to test for these faults is with a continuity checker. Several types are available, each with its own particular advantages and disadvantages.

2. The Volt - Ohm - Milliammeter
Of the VOM's three measurement functions, the ohmmeter circuit is most often used, since this is the one which can give an indication of continuity.

3. Bench - Type Continuity Checker
One way to make continuity checks quicker and more efficient is to build a separate checking device for this purpose.

4. Other Devices
The continuity checker can also be used for checking the operation of an aquarium heater. An aquarium heater contains a thermostat which automatically connects and disconnects the heater element as water temperature changes.

5. Portable Hair Dryer
Motor Failure Check the switch and cord set for continuity with an ohmmeter. Check the two leads to the motor fields for continuity.

6. Electric Hairclippers
A continuity test from one side of the male plug to the other (with the switch on) will indicate a broken wire or open field coil.

7. Home Manicure Kit
Now with the VOM set on R X 10 ohms range, trace the continuity of the primary circuit from one male prong of the cord set through the switch, through the transformer (95 ohms), the wire-nut connector, and out through the other male prong of cord set.

8. Hair Curlers
Troubleshooting If the curler is completely dead—no heat and no light—check the switch, line-cord, and connection continuity.

9. Waffle Irons
If the unit is "dead," that is, if it will not heat at all, begin a continuity test with an ohmmeter from one of the male plugs on the line cord step-by-step through the element, thermostat, and back to the other male plug.

10. Table - Range
Be sure it is unplugged When making these and other continuity checks, disconnect one lead of the component under test.
