Diode Circuit Inspection
The resistance should be low in one direction and more than 10 times as much in the other direction. If any diode shows low or high in both directions, the diode is defective and the relay box must be replaced.
NOTE
The actual meter reading varies with the meter or tester used and the individual diodes, but generally speaking, the lower reading should be from zero to one half the scale.

cylinder wear is low.
Measure the gap [B] between the ends of the ring with a
thickness gauge.
