The easiest place to install an ammeter into a stepper motor driver/motor circuit for system diagnostics is to
attach the meter in series with the driver’s power supply lead.
remove a fuse and place the meter leads across the fuse clips.
disconnect a motor lead and attach the meter in series with that lead.
connect the meter across the center tap and phase leads of the motor.
