Rectifier Assembly

Check for continuity of positive side diodes between each stator coil terminal and "BAT" terminal. Reverse ohmmeter lead polarity and recheck for continuity. If continuity exists in both polarity directions or does not exist in both polarity directions, diode is defective and must be replaced. Check for continuity of negative side diodes between each stator lead and "E" terminal. Reverse ohmmeter leads and recheck for continuity. Once again, continuity should only exist in one direction.
