While cleaning my -4 up for its CI I felt a wire behind the alternator give and found a cracked diode on a wire going from the B lead to another alternator stud, pictured.
I am unable to identify the diode as the sheath got busted up. Frankly, I can't even identify the alternator. Works great with an external VR, never any hiccups.
Anyone recognize the alternator or know the diode specs? Bonus points for confirming what it is actually doing there in the first place.
Thanks gurus!
