How to Use a Tester or Multimeter

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

Let’s see how to use a multimeter, always following this order; select the measurement type (voltage/current/resistance); the type (AC or DC) and then the range (the maximum value we can measure). To measure AC, use the household socket at 230 V with a recommended range of 500 Volts; avoid using the 200 Volts setting, as it may get damaged.

For the car battery in DC, a range of 20 Volts is advisable. Do not use the 200V range, as it will give an inaccurate reading.

If you want to measure the resistance of a wire, select Ohms (200 for continuity) and avoid measuring a live circuit. To measure the current of a device, start with the highest range, then go lower, and avoid measuring it in parallel like voltage.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
