Rectifier (Sidekick)
- Check continuity between upper and lower rectifier bodies and each diode lead as shown. Reverse ohmmeter probes, ensuring one-way continuity at each diode.
- Ensure one-way continuity between both leads of diode trio. Replace rectifier if check is not satisfactory. See Fig 1.

- In one direction there should be approximately 10 ohms of resistance. In other direction reading should be an infinite, indicating no continuity. If not, replace rectifier.
