After GO appears, engage starter until OFF appears.4. Is battery internal resistance less than 25 milliohms?1. Batteries are OK.2. If display shows GO, there is a bad connection in thestarter circuit. Check cables and connections to starterandrepeat test.3. If GO is still displayed, then you may have a very poorbattery in the series pair being tested. Test each bat-tery individually.4. If display shows .9.9.9.9., there maybe a bad connec-tion on the battery being tested. Clean and tighten theconnections on the batteries and repeat test.5. If display shows E013 or .9.9.9.9., the batteries beingtested maybe in a discharged state. Checkbatterieselectrolyte level; charge batteries and repeat test.6.
