I can't address the other items, but check the ohm meter reading with just test
lead to test lead.  It will often be about 1 ohm.  Whatever that reading is
should be subtracted from the 17.5, and will likely then be closer to what the
spec calls for.

Also make sure you make good tight contact, and that surfaces are clean when
checking low impedance devices.
