Oh, and if this project turns into a smoke bomb my only concern is I hope it's not a wimpy poof. I found 6 for $22 and they're only a couple thousand miles away.so we have time.

I didn't know if I should be concerned with current flow when ordering the stud diodes, or if they will all be the same? The only info I could find on the old button diodes was RR50 50 Amp diodes, and the new ones I ordered are 1 PC 70HTR120 70A/1200V Metal stud type Rectifier diodes. I wasn't sure since they were unreadable and untestable and I couldn't even locate a schematic. I was concerned that the old button diodes may have had the anode facing the plate for some and the cathode for others. I assumed this plate was some sort of rectifier, although I'm honestly unsure why there's six diodes and not four? My electronic knowledge is limited, but I recall seeing rectifier circuits with four diodes that seemed to directed current in various directions.


I'll attempt to explain why and what confuses me.
