Hi all,
Please forgive my slew of threads today; troubleshooting in full swing.
I just tested my display using a multimeter and the readings never stabilized. The meter read 0 before I began the tests and continued to go back to 0 each time I pulled the probes out out of the ground and the water and dried the water probe off.
The readings either continued to rise or continued to fall. I noticed that if I so much as bumped the sensors it would cause major spikes in the reading, so I just set the meter down on the tank stand in the hopes that it would settle on a number, or at least a range for that matter, but it continued to either climb or decline.
I have the black probe in the ground of a wall socket and the red probe in the water.
What am I doing wrong?
