Hello -
My AL80A in Barbados failed after years of reliable service.
It looks like all of the diodes on the rectifier board are shorted. I
also noticed that one of the diodes had a chunk blown out of it. I can
obviously replace the diodes but I would like to know why they all
failed. Is it possible that if one diode fails, they all fail? Or,
should I be concerned about a problem further down stream. Rudimentary
ohmmeter checks of the capacitor bank/load looked normal
Thanks for your help.
