"OL" is "overload", or more ohms (resistance) than the scale your meter is set to can display. For example, if a wire and the associated components connected to it had a resistance of 500 ohms, and your meter was set to display zero to 250 ohms, when you measured it then you would see "OL" which means that what was read was higher than the scale your meter is set to. An open circuit is "infinite" resistance, and will always display "OL".

Make sense?
