iFixit Digital Multimeter Outer Cover Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

This guide shows how to remove and replace the outer cover on your iFixit digital multimeter.

The outer cover protects the multimeter from drops and dings. You can peel it off easily, but it can be tricky to reinstall due to its perimeter lip. This guide will help you align and seat the cover properly.

You don't need to remove the outer cover to replace the batteries, but you do need to remove it to replace the fuses.
