8531 /Burner Issue UPDATE--Photos ( Fixed!)
With the furnace running, where do you put the pos and neg leads of the meter? Or can you do it at the Tstat inside with the furnace on? I want the 12v to the board, not the voltages the board puts...

Got some photos I hope you techs can interpret.
Side view of three-prong above burner screen- can't bend them down closer
Top view--screen not rusted out, fairly new burner head.
The spade where the black wire goes on is rusty except it is shiny where it was covered by the black wire's terminal--I can't tell if the rusty outside part on the shiny probe part sticking out is clean inside making good contact or not. I will clean the end but can't do anything about where it is on the probe. The black wire seems ok but don't know where it goes to back towards the circuit board--clean that end too if I can find it?
EDIT--black wire to plug on edge of board--cleaned board contacts and plug--didn't seem to need it.
The rusty plate screwed on that holds the three probes has some kind of white stuff on it you see there so it is not making contact with the other metal part there (if it is supposed to) except maybe with the two screws. Is that the ground I am worried about?
