Re: multimeter
Assuming it looks a bit like this
You are probably looking for Volts, and on the car this is DC Volts- the V range on the left here. The V range on the right is AC Volts, the symbols beside the letter V tell you this. You choose the lowest range that will include the voltage you expect- for a 12V system that will be 20 in this case.
