NOTE: In the diode tests there should be continuity in one direction only. If the diode being tested shows no continuity or continuity in both directions, replace the rectifier assembly.
Touch the probes to the terminals (Item 1) [Figure 60-30-12] of each diode and read the meter.
Reverse the probes to check the diode in the other direction.
There should be continuity in one direction only.
Touch one probe to the diode (Item 1) [Figure 60-30-13] and the other probe to the connected heatsink and read
the meter.
Reverse the probes to check the diode in the other direction.
There should be continuity in one direction only.
