A/C Diode

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1998 Acura Integra. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Check diode with analog ohmmeter or digital meter with diode tester.

Disconnect A/C diode connector. The A/C diode connector is located behind right the kick panel. Continuity should exist between any combination of terminals (such as "B" and "C"), but only in one direction (polarity). See Fig 1 . If continuity is not as specified, replace A/C diode.
