How to measure capacitance (small capacitors)

This step shows how to measure small ceramic or film capacitors. These capacitors are normally flat, with a body that's smaller than 5 mm.
Plug the black lead into the COM port. Plug the red lead into the right port.
Turn the function dial to the resistance/capacitance mode and press the blue select button to toggle on the capacitance mode.
Power down the circuit you're measuring, if you're measuring the capacitor while it's still connected to the circuit.
Touch the probes to each end of the capacitor to make a measurement.
If you're measuring a capacitor on a circuit board and you're not getting a proper reading, the capacitor may be in parallel with other circuit components. You'll need to desolder or disconnect one end before measuring the capacitor.
