Can you post a picture of this multimeter?

The multimeter is a 19 dollar unit. There is only one place on it where you measure ohms. It is labeled ohm X1K.

On the Ohm scale you can see Rx1, Rx10, Rx100 etc. In what position is the range knob on you meter?

I am testing a sensor which is supposed to have a resistance of 1100 ohms. I switched to ohms,touched the probes together and zeroed my multimeter. then I inserted the probes into the sensor. The needle went one line above the 1.

This looks to me like 1.1ohms not 1100 would this be a correct assumption.

From right to left the numbers for ohms read 1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,20,30,40,60,100,200,the last is1k and then the 8 on its side for infinity.

Thanks;Mainzy
