An analog type ohmmeter is a device used to measure electrical resistance in ohms using a needle and dial display. It operates on the principle of a galvanometer, where the movement of the needle indicates the level of resistance based on the current flowing through the circuit. The user connects the probes to the component or circuit being tested, and the scale on the dial provides a visual reading of the resistance value. Analog ohmmeters are often simpler in design and do not require a power source for the measurement.
An analog ohmmeter uses a needle and dial to display resistance values, requiring a simpler setup with a basic circuit that includes a battery and a galvanometer. In contrast, a digital ohmmeter employs electronic components and a microprocessor to measure resistance, providing a digital readout on an LCD or LED screen. The setup typically involves more complex circuitry and may include features like automatic range selection. Additionally, digital ohmmeters often offer higher accuracy and greater ease of use compared to their analog counterparts.
The only different is one has a needle, the other digital numbers-same as with analog and digital watches.
simply means the tester's measurement is displayed in an analog way (not digital) For example: a moving needle that points to a scale a clock with hands is ANALOG a clock that displays the time like this (11:55pm) is DIGITAL

Assuming you don't have a device for testing capacitors, a somewhat useful method of testing a capacitor is:Remove the capacitor from circuit.Using an analog ohm meter (with a needle rather than a digital readout), connect the two leads of the meter to the two leads of the capacitor.You MAY see the needle jump, but leave the meter connected for a few seconds and see how far the needle falls.Quickly reverse the polarity of the meter leads.The needle of the ohm meter should definitely jump then settle back, approaching open circuit.If you have consistently high resistance (low ohms) the capacitor is faulty, but if the resistance slowly falls (higher ohms), the capacitor is good.If the capacitor does nothing, consistently high ohms or consistently low ohms, toss the capacitor and get a new one; they're relatively cheap.touch it with a fingerLick it. If you die, it works.

Most TPS units have three terminals. Connect one lead of an analog (has needle indicator) ohmmeter to the center terminal and the other lead to either one of the other terminals (one terminal will move needle up, the other will move needle down). SLOWLY, manually operate the throttle OR depress the gas pedal and watch for any erratic movments of the needle on the ohmmeter. It should move smoothly is the TPS is o.k.
This is nearly impossible unless the digital multimeter has either:a built in capacitance meter functionan analog bargraphIt was actually much easier to do on the old style cheap analog multimeters with a needle using the ohms scale than it is on modern digital multimeters.
first you need a analog multimeter. put in your meter in the ohm section x10. then remove the cap in the ckt and discharge that. then connect the multimeter -ve probe to the cap +ve terminal and connect the other terminals.the needle comes to low value then com to infinity, remove the probs then connect multimeters -ve prob to the cap -ve terminal that time look carefully the meter's needle comes to the one value and go back to the infinity that the low value is capacitors equivalent resistance value. the cap is 1000uf the equivalent resistance value is around 15 at x10 .the cap is 100uf the equivalent resistance value is around 15 at x100

If it's an electronic (analog) speedometer needle, you probably have a problem with the dasboard grounding.

analog is a D'arsonal movement (an indicator needle over a scaled background) and a digital meter is a LCD display that has no movement
