[QUOTE="KaeZoo, post: 2255723, member: 554753"] With a multimeter set for DC volts or a test light, attach the black lead to ground then probe each end of the fuse with the red lead. If you have voltage on one side but not the other, you have a blown fuse. Standard automotive "spade" fuses have two access points at the top of the fuse, so they can be tested while they're still seated in the fuse holder. Depending on the fuse location, you may need to turn the vehicle's key switch on to get power to the circuit before testing. This method is both much easier and more reliable than continuity testing.
