Perhaps change the battery, clean the terminals with a cotton bud and isopropyl in case you have some oil or gunk in there, check the range switch too.... then bin it. If you can't trust it, you can't trust it.

Funnily enough my worst meters for reliability have been Fluke. The $50 to $150 meters seem to go forever.
