Ok, so I tried the above, the reading was .65 with no change when I put the stand down. I forgot to try it with the red/black leads switched DOH!!! I can try that again tmrw if necessary?
I also tried Kev's test:

I was not sure what Kev meant by point 1 on the ECU connector. I connected the black lead to the - terminal on the battery, and tried it with the red on the pinhole corresponding to number 1 on the back of the clip as well as the point that Medo suggested above (lower row; second pin from the left on your 1st photo)
Here are the readings:
'point 1 on ECU connector' - 0.9 (no change with stand up or down)
'lower row; second pin from the left on your 1st photo' - 0.65 with stand up / 1.5 stand down (I may have mixed the figures for the up/down positions - long day at work...)
For info, I used the following multimeter on the setting circled in yellow for all tests above:
Hope this makes sense? Sorry for the lack of brains...I have no idea how electrics work
