NOTE: Make sure the correct test lead (+ or -) is placed on the terminal.
When checking for continuity across the diode, use the diode setting
on the digital volt/ohm meter to check the diode bias.
Be careful of this characteristic; a diode is one that conducts fully in
one direction (forward) and not at all in the opposite direction
(reverse).
