I'm afraid I dont have access to my Haynes manual that I think details the test procedure quite well, in the meantime Ive tried to copy a procedure out of the WSM that details working in Amps:

good luck - Frank

Found the problem today, it was the charging fuse, it was not blown but one of the spades had melted away and wasnt making contact, Cleaned the fuse holder and a new fuse and it seems ok, I can only assume that there was some corrosion at the joint causing it to arc and melt the blade
