Solar Panels Homemade

Multimeter not working, HELP!?
Hi! Not to long ago I began working on a science project to see if the temperature outside affects the electricity (voltage) generated by a solar cell. Its all been going well, until I took a break to test out some electronics for an RC plane, using a homemade chord with radioshack banana plugs. Now when I went back to the solar panel project, I get no reading. I am 99.9% positive that the multimeter is the culprit, and but im not sure why!
Thanks!
It is probably the fuses in the multimeter. There should be two.
If you have a second multimeter you can use, check the continuity of the fuses after taking them out. Otherwise, just replace them with new ones.
