488 ohms tapos 1238 ohm with the test leads reversed. bawat isa sa tatlong diode ganyan ang reading. hindi ba dapat zero ohms tapos infinity?

tapos chineck ko uli yung wiring ng charge relay. with the test lead connected to the negative battery cable, zero ohms (continuous) ang reading when connected to the terminal socket #30 and #87. ayon sa aking pagkakaalam, ang 30 & 87 is the load circuit. tapos 30 is connected to the positive side and 87 is to the load. pero bakit continuous?

pinapanalangin ko na nga sana ic or diode lang para straightforward pero parang maghahanap ako ng short to ground neto ng matagal.

namomonkey wrench nako a.


try using a digital multimeter. in diode check mode,
forward bias should read approximately 5v
reverse bias should read OL or infinity

if reading/s are off even on one diode out of the rectifier bridge, the rectifier bridge assembly is shorted.
