The new diode is in series to #1 post & ready to go but, nothing happens. No power to the coil, starter or lights. I have to be overlooking something. I have the diode wired in 2.5" away from the alt, with the gray band facing the alt. Nuthin'! Re-searched my wiring & everything is connected where it should be. Has to be something simple or it wouldn't be causing so many headaches. Will the gray band facing away from the alt make a difference? It's the only thing I can figure. Same case as before: diode in line = nothing, no diode = starts & runs. The answer has to be right there in that messed up scenario, somewhere. I can't imagine THREE diodes being junk from anywhere! Gotta be me &/or my luck. All there is to it. - Dismayed
