What does this mean?
Hi guys, I have a 1985 Corvette and I was using a power probe to test one of my wires for the burn off module. Anyway, it would beep, stop, beep, stop, beep, stop, etc. etc., but really quickly.
I figured I may have a bad connection somewhere causing it to do that. So my next step was to go to the fuses. When I tested some of the fuses, a about 1/3 of them did the same thing.
I have it all on video.
Is that normal or does it mean there is a bad connection somewhere or something?
Thanks!

Looks to me like you have 10.9 -11.1v at all of the fuses. As for the way the device is beeping, I'd suggest reading the directions that came with that particular device. It seems like there may be a poor connection in some...could be the fuse itself, or the probe on the fuse. Looking at the LCD, though, it looks normal to me, (If not slightly low voltage).

I looked through the little packet that it came with and I wasn't able to find anything. I'm going to try testing it with my multi meter and a test light and I'll let you know what happens. Thanks!

Complete manual is likely this:

The FAQ's might help on the link also. I can't imagine attempting to use a tool without understanding it's operation.
I didn't waste my time on the video.
