You're doing it right, but your meter probalby isn't the best one to use. If yours only has the two resistance ranges, it's probably straddling the range you need, which is about 0-10 ohms.
You can get a digital multimeter for less than $30 from Sears.
Craftsman Multimeter
Or a professional quality Fluke meter for about $150.
