1. Turn off power to the device or circuit that is being tested
and discharge all capacitors.
2. Check the forward bias of the diode by connecting the red
test probe to the anode (+) and the black test probe to the
cathode (-) of the diode. Read the forward voltage drop on
the meter display.
2.1 A good silicone diode will result in a reading from
about 0.3 - 0.7 V.
2.2 A short is indicated by a continuous beep and a
reading of .000 V.
2.3 An open is indicated by an "OL" reading.
3. Check the reverse bias of the diode by reversing the test
lead connections to the diode (red probe to cathode and
black probe to anode).
3.1 A reading of "OL" indicates reverse blocking and a
good diode.
3.2 A reading of .000 V and a continuous beep indicates
high reverse leakage current or a short.
