Quoted from fuzzylugnuts:The diode is in the correct direction, wires are correct (took photos before removal). I do not get a switch failure. I am told diodes rarely go out, wondering if it can be checked with an ohm meter? A this point I am baffled and may be time to take it in to the shop. Tried all the rubber band mechanic solutions trying save a few $.
Post a pic anyways. Just because you took a picture of it before does not mean it was correct. You said it wasn’t working then either
