I currently have my lock module taken apart to "upgrade" the internal relays in it. While I was looking over all of the electronics, I noticed a yellow diode that was looking pretty bad. I checked the wiring diagram on the DMCNEWS tech page... http://www.dmcnews.com/Techsection/graphics/lockcirc.jpg Only to find this diode (D4) unmarked as to it's properties. Do any you electronic experts out there know what the purpose of this diode is for, and what type it is? I am somewhat familiar working with electronics, so I know how to replace it if I had the proper replacement. However, since I'm no electrical engineer I'm baffled as to the purpose it serves. It is directly connected to the positive and negative inputs to the unit, so I'm guessing that is why it has taken such a beating. Thanks for any input. -- Jim Reeve <Ultra> '81 DeLorean-#6960 http://www.dmcultra.com AIM-Ultra2169
