Best tool for testing basic circuits (since they all use Power and Ground) -
$1.00 Test Light. It finds bad fuses quick and tests for power (and ground
- just reverse the lead). I used to use a DVOM...not anymore (unless
required).

Just for future reference, it might be a good idea to pick up a $5-10
multimeter (Radio Shack or even Walmart maybe?) and toss it in the trailer.
My multimeter is something I usually stick in the truck before going on a
road trip (plus the FSM, some fluids, basic tools, etc.) Might save some
headaches some day.
