Hi everyone! Thank you for your help. If it applies, I will try contacting Fluke and see if they will repair my unit under the lifetime warranty. I will report back once I have some information. --- Quote from: nightfire on September 07, 2024, 08:13:06 pm ---In Photo #3, it displays "OL" ->Meaning in that case you are out of range. Normal Error message here. Might it have occurred that you are on a manual range in that case? --- End quote --- I showed that photo because when you're not measuring anything and the "OL" is displayed, there should also be the "M" symbol on the right. --- Quote from: J-R on September 07, 2024, 08:20:29 pm ---The Fluke warranty typically only applies to the original owner, and this was purchase used, although maybe listed as "new, open box"? I think whether you can get away with this path will depend on whether Fluke has any previous owner registered in their systems for that serial number. --- End quote --- I purchased this Fluke "as new" on eBay and I did not get any receipt. I got it at a pretty good price and the seller has not mentioned any problems with it... which I haven't looked for or expected when I received it. |

They never asked for proof of purchase, receipt or anything like that. |

Hi everyone! A quick update: I contacted Fluke and sent in my multimeter for repair. They quickly got back to me and told me they would do a repair by replacement under the limited lifetime warranty. Yesterday I received a brand new Fluke 179. I’ll definitely be recommending Fluke to everyone—Fluke is awesome! Thanks for all your help! |
