Diode Circuit Board
The circuit board contains four diodes (Fig.48)and is lo-
cated under the console housing. The diodes are used
for circuit protection from inductive voltage spikes that
occur when a hydraulic valve solenoid is de--energized.
Diode D1 is in the left cutting deck circuit, D2 is in the
Transport/Mow circuit, D3 is in the front cutting deck c ir-
cuit and D4 is in the right cutting deck circuit.
Testing
The diodes can be individually tested using a digital
multimeter (ohms s etting) and the table to the right. If
any of the diodes are faulty, the diode circuit board must
be replaced.
Apply dielectric grease (Toro part number 107--0342) to
circuit board contacts whenever the circuit board is
installed into the wire harness.
