Be very careful of any old VOM's around modern gear!

For resistance checks they often used sufficient voltage and current to
destroy modern i.c.s 

Even though you're only looking for a short circuit, if you do NOT have a
short, whatever voltage/current the old VOM delivers will be placed across
the circuit and ground when you run the check.
