by noticing the polarity of theohmmeter a diode can be checked for continuity and blocking ability However it will not tell you how good or bad the device itself is
BY keeping the multimeter in diode mode and keeping properly the positive and negative terminals of the multimeter. If the diode is good multimeter will show a reading of 0.5 else there will be a short.
Look for rectifier polarity between both of the AC inputs and both of the polarized outputs, meaning, check for continuity betwen one of the AC inputs and one of the polarized outputs, then reverse the meter leads. You should have continuity one way and not the other. Repeat the process for each pairing, that should be 8 tests. If you have bias on each pair, the bridge is good; if not, toss it.
An Ohm Meter.
Get some resistors of known values and check your meter with them.

Capacitance is measured in Farads. "The unit... in ohm and meter" does not make sense.
1st make sure the power is turned offDisconnect one lead on primary side of transformer and using an ohm meter check for continuity. You will probably get a low ohm reading if you get no reading the windings are broken and transformer is no good2nd test using ohm meter again check for winding to ground you should get no reading. If you get a ohm value the transformer is shorted to groundRepeat these tests on secondary sideWith power on and fuse removed with a voltage meter check for power on secondary sideIf it is okay turn off power and install fuseIf fuse blows again check for shorts in circuitRemember to be careful when power is turned on
One of the diodes in the bridge may be shorted out. Use an ohm meter and check the front to back resistance on each of the diodes. It should have a high ohm reading one way (blocking) and low the other way (conducting).
(1) A basic check of a simple electrical rectifier (diode) requires the application of an ohm meter (an electrical resistance measurement device). A digital ohm meter (digital multimeter or DMM) is easier to use than the conventional dial (analog) type of meter. (2) The rectifier must be disconnected from the circuit to be assured of an effective test. (3) Measure the resistance of the rectifier from one terminal to the next. (4) Switch the meter test leads to measure the rectifier in the opposite direction. Do not to touch the electrical conducting parts of the meter leads or the terminals of the rectifier with your fingers or you may cause a false measurement. (5) Usually an effective rectifier has at least a 10 to 1 ratio of resistance as measured one direction versus the other.
You can check glow plugs with an ohm meter. should be <1ohm
OHM meter
you use an ohm meter
An Ohm Meter.
An ohm meter doesn't put out enough voltage, you need to use a megger.
Remove the fuse and check it with a ohm meter. If you have no ohm meter then just replace it with a new fuse.
Check it for continuity with an OHM meter.
