PROTECTION DIODE ALSO KNOW AS A REVERSE POLARITY DIODE
Just thought I would stick this video on here. Its a common fault if you have wired up your radio the wrong way round, Ive repaired a couple like this before. I know alot of you out there will already know about this fault but for those that dont it could save you a bit of cash. If you have to change one of these then make sure you fit it the correct way round, check before you take it out.
