i need some help. can anyone tell me how to read and obtain the proper measurements of a fet with my DMM(digital multimeter). Have a fet K2141 , but dont know what reading to expect or atleast to know if it is shorted.
any help appreciated.

As per the data sheet diagram posted, the first pin is the gate, the second is the drain and third source. When you measure with your dmm, in the diode position,you should see a junction between drain and source. If it shows short or 000, then the mosfet is blown. The data sheet also says protection diode on the gate. so repeat the process for the gate.
