| - | [* black] Place voltmeter leads to the electrical connectors, which are attached to the powercord. |
|---|---|
| - | [* black] Make sure there is current running through the circuit. |
| + | [title] Check the Voltage between the Wires |
| + | [* black] Locate the two wires which are connected directly to the power cord. Unlike the other wires, they are sheathed in a particularly thick, dot-textured plastic. |
| + | [* black] Make sure the voltmeter is on and turned to a larger enough setting. The setting should be anywhere between 120 and 500V. For most voltmeters the proper setting for this is the 200V setting. |
| + | [* black] Attach one of the voltmeter's probes to the metal portions of each of the two wires connected to the power cord's end on the device |
| + | [* black] The voltmeter should read a number significantly above 20V. A reading between 100 and 150 V indicates that the device is getting enough power. A lower number indicates the power cord is broken. |
