TEST PROCEDURE 12 – Wire Harness Diodes
See General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
A diode is designed to conduct current in one direction only. Depending on the application, diodes are used in the
vehicle to control electrical system logic, or to help protect relay and switch contacts from excessive arcing.
See
following NOTE.
NOTE:
If a diode conducts current in both directions, the diode has failed closed. If a diode will not conduct current in
either direction, the diode has failed open

Basic Diode Information
The wire harness is equipped with several in-line diodes. The following table describes each diode’s function in the
electrical system, the location in the wire harness, and the symptom(s) of a diode failure.
