9.Electrically isolate the six diode pigtail leads by carefully bending them out into “free air.”

10.With an ohmmeter or diode tester, check each of the six diodes from their pigtails to their respective heat sinks.

11.Reverse the tester leads and check the diodes again. Diodes should have a low resistance in one polarity and a very high resistance in the opposite polarity

12.Replace any “shorted” or “open” diode as the tests indicate. See the Diode Removal and Replacement Procedure.

13.Replace the pigtails and stator leads onto the correct studs. Assemble the washers and nuts.
