Hi! So, a couple of months ago, I got tired of me watching my movies and when someone flips a certain switch in the house, my Blu-Ray to stop working for a second, then come back on (the TV being fine, mind you, connected both at the same outlet). So, I took my multimeter (Uni-T UT33B) and tried to measure the voltage of my outlet when that switch is flipped. Dumb me, I set the multimeter for DC Voltage, while connecting the red cable to the Unfused connection. Of course, both the fuses in the multimeter and in my house blew.
Now, I replaced the fuse in the multimeter, but it still doesn't measure anything. I'll link a video in Google Photos of how it behaves when I don't have anything connected. I suppose there is a short-circuit inside the multimeter somewhere.
I'll also upload down below a photo of the board of the multimeter. If needed, I'll try and find a schematic of the board as well.
Any advice on getting this back up and running? I don't want to spend money on another UT33B, rather I'd buy a better multimeter, but I don't want to spend that kind of money right now, as I'll soon need a serious laptop for Video Editing and Android Studio, and those are very expensive.
