How did you do this with a multi-meter?

I followed the advice received from another well known forum :-

Which forum would that be?

"Not much can be done without a meter. For a simple voltage test like
this, one of the 10 quid argos digital multimeters would be
sufficient.

This isn't a voltage test, it's a resistance test. And you are measuring
very low resistances - which a multimeter like that won't do.
