Excellent Norman; a traditional solution!

According to RS Components the answer depends upon the individual meter so it's a matter of you getting out the owner's manual or searching for information on your particular model.

The sun roof failed last week; fortunately in the cl;osed position cos next day it "rained". The rain wetted the passenger side mat so today have been investigating the sun roof drains; passenger side disconnected; now re-connected (thanks Arctic). Further investigation as to why the rood didnt work; found there are 2 off 20A fuses! Both removed but were ok. Think the problem must be either the switch or connections. Mmmm. More messing with things needced. not done any amps measurement yet!
