Buck:  What I meant was to join the test leads of your ohm meter together and see if you get a reading. An auto ranging meter should show 0.0 ohms while a regular digital meter will give you the resistance of the leads themselves, 0.7 ohms for example.

My meters are non-auto ranging, so they have an adjustment knob to zero out prior to measurements. I just touch the leads together, then turn the knob until the reading is zero ohms. This takes the resistance of the leads out of the calculation.
