    Yes Geoff black on V- Red on V+ but you'll need to change the meter from reading AC to DC.

    Yes. If you get them the wrong way round it will just measure -ve. make sure the meter is set to DC and AC for the mains side. Be careful .

    Edit: I had not refreshed by browser so didn't see Jazz post.. Just to make sure that there is not a short on the output make a good pic. and remove all the wires on the DC side and check again.

    I'm not that deep into the electronics of how PSU works but it's worth taking out to see if it's got a fuse built into it. After that, I'd just buy another for sake of £10-15 quid.

    May be worth going for a bigger wattage. These don't fail very often imo. See how much is connected to it.
    Mine only powers the 12v-24v part of my BOB and that's it, but I still stuck a 24v-60w on there. I can always get a step down unit if I ever need to add a 12v line.

    So with yours being a 12v as long as you get the same voltage unit a bigger current and wattage rating won't matter.
