Disconnect one of the load cells and stand over the connected load cell.
Does the indicator display a reading about twice your weight?
Disconnect the first load cell and connect
the other load cell to the same connector
on the indicator. Does the indicator display
a reading about twice your weight?
Perform the paper clip test. Take two paper clips and carefully insert one
into pin 2 and the other in pin 3 of either load cell connector jack on the
indicator. Hold one paper clip in each hand (if the touch it will not damage
the indicator). Does the reading on the indicator jump around?
