UT210E Problem measuring AMPS!!! :(
(1/8) > >>

Hello all

I have an UT210E clamp meter that went wrong doing amps measurements, it shows an offset of around 5A, in cont. amps 10A set,,,,,,  and also does not allow  me to (zero button) , and it is even worse in the 2A !! setting which do nothing and shows  "0L"
What can be wrong?
Fungus:
If it's been exposed to a strong magnetic field or a current far in excess of its rating then it might need degaussing.

Thanks .. sorry Im a normal user for this clamp and take advantage of its DC measurements.. i do not remember using in over exposed currents and wonder if it might be a common problem and what to do if you cant make a diy degauss tool.... the vendor cant repair and maybe an easier solution exist like leaving the tool close to something or using a more detailed tutorial explaining how to build a tool with this purpose.
cdev:
Have you tried removing the batteries for some time and putting them back in?  Maybe it simply needs to reboot/reset.

yes i have tried but needs degaussing because it is in an 5A DC offset.. i have taken apart an hdd hard drive to remove the magnets and made them turn in the same hdd motor to no avail... it is the "drill" method but with another turning way... what is wrong?  Location of radial magnet?
