Hi Larry: That is interesting. I saw a 195 chassis P46922 2000 year model last week were that diode was bad. On mine the vertical was about 1/2 what it should be, so a quick check revealed the voltage disparity and diode problem. Maybe these will begin to be another nice quick and easy fix. I used a 1n4007 diode.
