25.5 volts at the electrode is OK, but you don't have a 24 volt input, you have more. You can't have more voltage than there is at the input in this sort of circuit. You could say 24V rated wall wart or something like that...
A resistor of .4 ohms is a dead short really, you may have been on the K-ohm range in which case it would be .4K ohms, or 400 ohms. (K stands for 1000) If this is the case you have 25.5 V divided by 400 ohms which gives you 62.5 milliamps as a maximum current that will flow in the circuit. Adding the LED will use up about 1.5 volts of your total voltage so you would have 24 / 400 = 60ma. Make sure the LED is connected with the correct polarity or else it will block all current flow. If it lights up, it is in the correct polarity. Current is labeled Amps, or milliamps (for Amps/1000).
