While troubleshooting a circuit in an engine room central control console, a resistor is suspected of being faulty. Which of the following precautions must be observed if an ohmmeter is to be used to check its value? A. Correct polarity must be observed because reverse bias will damage the component. B. Meter leads must not be twisted so as to cancel out the individual magnetic fields. C. Resistor's circuit must be de-energized and at least one end of the component isolated. D. The meter case must be grounded prior to attaching the leads.
