"condenser" in this case is simply an alternate term for capacitor.
being a capacitor, it should show infinite resistance ( or at least meg ohms ) to a DC signal, but it may show a momentary low resistance when you first touch the test leads too it, as the plates charge up. you should really short the plates out before you attach the ohm meter to the leads so you don't pop the fuse in the meter.
before you short it out, it should be holding +12v on a volt meter if it's been connected to power recently, unless the Ign switch shorts it to ground when you turn the car off.
