This is the second time this happened, so I'm sharing it with you. This meter has a 50mA fuse inside, located between the probe connectors. If you use the probes that have the collar on the meter end (the collar protrudes around the banana plug), the collar can and has hit this fuse and broke it, twice. The only fix I see is bending the fuse outward a bit while the leads are about 3/4 the way inserted.



The only indication I found (that I use) than points to this fuse is the Sourcing Voltage spikes, then goes to almost zero.
