I was using my little analog meter in dim light. I thought it was off so set it to 250 volts and probed a 120v circuit. There was a flash and a smell. Turns out I set it on 50ma DC instead of 250vac (opposite side of switch). Well the voltage meter still works and the ohm meter still works, I thought it blew a fuse but I guess that is just for ohms. So what blew? Why no fuse? I can smell but can't see, must be on the back side.
