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 .Quote:

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.Quote:

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