Charging Diode

2.3. Connect the 18-gauge orange wire from accelerator pedal limit switch to small post on the solenoid.
2.4. Connect the 18-gauge blue wire from the key switch to the other small post on the solenoid.
3. Tighten the hex nuts on the large solenoid posts to 60 in·lb (6.8 N·m). Tighten the nuts on the small solenoid
posts to 22 in·lb (2.5 N·m).
4. Install the electrical box cover.
5. Connect battery and spark plug wire(s). See Connecting the Battery- Gasoline Vehicles on page 1-3.
CHARGING DIODE
See General Warnings on page 1-1.
TESTING THE CHARGING DIODE
See Test Procedure 6 – Charging Diode (Generator Circuit) – Key-Start Vehicles Only on page 19-10.
CHARGING DIODE REMOVAL
1. Turn the key switch OFF and remove the key. Place the Forward/Reverse handle in the NEUTRAL position.
Chock the wheels.
2. Disconnect battery and spark plug wire(s). See Disconnecting the Battery- Gasoline Vehicles on page 1-3.
3. Remove the screw (1) and electrical component box cover (2) (Figure 21-2, Page 21-5).
4. Remove the nuts (3) from the two large solenoid posts and disconnect the charging diode wires (4 and 5)
from the solenoid.
4.1. Observe color orientation of the wires with the terminal locations on the solenoid. The 10-gauge red wire
(4) from the charging diode (6) should be attached to the same terminal as the red wire (7) from the fuse
block and the red wire (8) from the battery. The 10-gauge white wire (5) should be attached to the other
large solenoid post, along with the red wire (9) from the voltage regulator and the white wire (10) from
the starter/generator.
5. Remove the nut (11), the charging diode (6), and thermal transfer pad (12) from the chassis. Discard transfer
pad (12).
