I just took the back wire from my meter and touched it to the - post on the battery. Then took the red wire and touched it to metal part on the Blazer. The meter is digital and can measure ohms, vots, and amps. I just set the wires up on the meter where they need to be and select what I would like to measure. I bought it at Home Depot. I was definitely set up to measure volts, not amps. My meter was not registering anything when attempting to measure amps.
