How do you use this thing??? HELP

Ok so my car been running like *** ever since i've put the turbo on and i've tried lot's of different things and none of them helped... so i am thinking now that maybe my resistor box is not wired in right, so i am trying to find the right wires that run from the injectors... here i found this ---- on honda tech...

so i went out and bought this multimiter... but how the ---- do you use it to find the right wires?

i did and it didn't help... i guess the manufacturer expects you to at least know basic ----, and i've never used multimiter before so i don't even know where to begin...

Set the meter on Ohms, any ohm setting will be fine. The reading on the meter should be "1", for 100% resistance, and if you touch the terminals together it should go down to (close to) 0, meaning no resistance. This is how you figure out which wires belong to each other.

I had no clue what I was doing with one of those either, I just tried different settings. Finally I got it to read from 0 to 1 by touching the prongs together. I assumed this to be continuity and my injectors work fine. :P
