Diode Assembly: Civic

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Honda Prelude, 2000 Honda Civic, and 2000 Honda CR-V. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Remove diode (rectifier) assembly from generator. Check continuity of each diode in both directions by reversing test probes between diode terminals. See Fig 1 . To test all 9 diodes, perform continuity checks between terminal "B" and each "P" terminal, terminal B1 and each "P" terminal, and terminal "E" and each "P" terminal.
  2. All diodes should show continuity in one direction and no continuity in the opposite direction. If any diode does not test as specified, replace diode (rectifier) assembly.
