If you measure voltage across a switch, what state is it in?
1. Open
2. Closed
If you measure correct voltage across a load but the load doesn’t work, what is wrong?
1. There is no power.
2. There is no current.
3. A switch is open.
4. The load has failed.
Refer to Figure 1. If you have a reading at point 4, but not at 5, what is the problem?
1. The load has failed.
2. The switch is open.
3. The wiring has failed.
4. The ground has failed.
