Rectifier Diodes
- With rectifier assembly on bench, contact diode plate with one probe and each of the 3 diode leads with other probe. Note ohmmeter reading. Reverse probes and repeat test. Check all diodes in this manner.
- All diodes should show a low reading in one direction and NO reading in opposite direction. If any rectifier diode is defective, replace rectifier assembly.
- On all models, set ohmmeter to x100 ohm scale. Check for continuity between terminals "B" and "F". There should be continuity in one direction only.
