Would like to use a digital volt/ohm meter instead of light or
fuse? What should I look for? Voltage, amps, ohms? Thanks again.

You are misunderstanding the purpose of the light. The 60-100W bulb should
be wired in place of the original fuse in the tv so that it limits the
current to the set and works as a resistor in case the fault still exsits.

It sounds that you probably need to do some more learning before you jump
into working on television sets. They can be quite dangerous.

Thanks. So I get a light bulb socket and run wire from fuse connection
to one side of light socket and do the same on other side. To your
point bulb acts as a resistor.
