I just recently bought a new (used)Ford F-250 and I didn't want to assume that the truck had 12V power at the plug to charge the TT battery like I did on my GMC when I drove it for 2 months without charging the battery. So, I break out the multimeter and disconnected the TT's positive from the battery. Then I drop it and it shorts against the frame sending a very clear signal that it did in fact have a fuse instead of a blank. It cost me $5 to replace it. LOL Go figure!
