HIGH VOLTAGE
DIODE

NOTE :
Some inexpensive meters
may indicate infinite
resistance in both direction.

Measure the resistance.
(Ohm-meter scale: Rx1000)
• Terminal to terminal.

Measure the resistance.
(Ohm-meter scale: Rx1000)
• Terminal to case.

Measure the continuity (Forward).
(Ohm-meter scale: Rx10000)

Measure the continuity (Reverse).
(Ohm-meter scale: Rx10000)

Normal: Momentarily indicates

several ohms, and then
gradually returns to 
infinite.

Normal: Infinite.

Normal: Continuity.
Abnormal: Infinite.

Normal: Infinite.
Abnormal: Continuity.

NOTE: When testing the magnetron, be sure to install the magnetron gasket

in the correct position and be sure that the gasket is in good condition.
