Power Transistor

Power Transistor Test:

Note: The circuit tester used in the following test procedures should be an analog type.

1. Disconnect the electrical connector to the Power Transistor.
2. Connect the positive lead of an ohmmeter to terminal # 5 of the Power Transistor.
3. Connect the negative lead of the ohmmeter to terminal # 8 of the Power Transistor.
Continuity should NOT exist.
4. Connect the negative lead of a 1.5 volt battery to terminal # 5 of the Power Transistor.
5. Check for continuity when the positive lead of the battery is connected to terminal # 6 of the Power Transistor.
Continuity should exist during connection.
