It is a magnetic cart and there is a coil around the needle holder.
He said it worked but he screwed it up.
How would I check the resistance?
Do I set the meter to a low resistance and then put the red on the wire and the other to the cart itself?

There are 3 divits in the separator board so I was thinking there were 3 separate wires and one would be ground but I have a picture of one from online and there is no third wire... It is a Mono cart so I cant figure out how the darn thing would use 4 wires for a 2 wire connection...
I have tried a bunch of combinations but nothing so far...

Ugh...
