DMM Kit

Just got my new SF DMM kit. Kit went together easily and fast. Voltage works great. I haven't had a chance to try current yet, but so far, I have yet to get resistance to show anything. I tried reading a 1K, 2K, 10K and 20K. No result. When I short the probes together, expecting the continuity buzzer, the whole DMM resets.

Wondering if anyone else is seeing this.

Nevermind, I found the problem. I was using the RES1 or RES2 with the COMMON. You have to switch BOTH probes over to RES1 and RES2.
