Default Fluke 8010A digital multimeter

All this bad weather is keeping me in and causing me to start finding faulty items of test gear that have been festering away in cupboards for years, making me have another look at them to see if they're fixable.

I'd forgotten what was originally wrong with this meter until I connected a couple of test leads and attempted to measure the voltage of a 9 volt PP3 battery. It basically just gives random and changing readings around the 35 volt(ish) mark.

Is it worth proceeding with this or has it had it?

At least the display is good and it's possible that it may fit another meter that I've yet to find that's got a bad display, but otherwise was working. I think this other meter may well be a Fluke, although it's badged as some other make, but I can't remember until I find it again.
