Most meters to test voltage can also test resistance. You can check your schematic to find what the resistance of a particular resistor should be. You would put one probe on one side of the resistor and one on the other and it should tell you the measured resistance. To make sure it is an accurate reading you should disconnect one end of the resistor before taking a measurement. The measurement of the resistor should be within apprx 10 to 20 percent of what the schematic says it is. Anything more than that should be replaced.
