P538 K7191 Diode Numbers maybe a couple other questions
Was wondering if i could get a confirmation on these numbers i got from diode checking the diodes on my P538 K7191 chassis here. It's been forever since i've been to electronics class and i'm getting 2 different answers when I search (one says open one direction and some small number the other, and the other says .400-700 one way and 1200 the other).
(Measurements in volts)
D16 1.150/.465
D17 Open/.465 (this one is in a burnt area and i'm guessing is bad)
D18 2.120/.479
D19 2.141/.512
D20 2.127/.516
D21 2.127/.516
D22 2.141/.508
D23 .538/.523
D24 .538/.523
Other questions:
-This chassis has a spot for a cap at C7 but looks to have been cut off. another p538 chassis i have doesn't have this location at all.... ???
-Is there a way to test the VR without having the chassis powered? (i must be blind not being able to find this...)
