Hi, sorry for asking a newbie question. I recently purchased an Amprobe Am-270 from ebay and it tested vol/resistance pretty good. However, I noticed that it does not test current properly. Every time I turn the knob to A, mA or uA setting without lead touching anything, there is an initial reading about 7mA or 70mA and it gradually drops to 0mA in about 5 to 20 seconds. And if I use the meter to test current (like a simple battery+led test) there does not seem to be any meaningful reading at all other than the weird 7mA-->0mA drop, the LED does light up though.
I tested the fuses and the resistance seems to be as low as ~1 Ohm, battery is new with 9.3V.
Does this mean the meter is dead?...
Thanks
