Hi, can anyone help me on how to find Thevenin equivalent resistances for a Wheatstone bridge configuration? I've searched all over google and youtube, but I haven't been able to fully understand the procedures.

jordansas,

...Ive searched all over google and youtube...

Are you telling us that you cannot calculate the open circuit voltage and the shorted circuit current of the bridge? Back to Circuits 101 for you.
