Reelmaster 3100−DPage 5 − 34Electrical Systems (Rev. C)
Diode Assemblies
The diode D1 and D2 provide logic for the interlock
switches. Diode D3 is used for circuit protection from in-
ductive voltage spikes when the interlock relay is deen-
ergized. Machines equipped with the standard control
module (serial numbers above 240000000) use only
one diode.
Two types of diodes have been used on the Reelmaster
3100−D:
1. On early production machines, the diodes are lo-
cated within the main wiring harness that lies under the
hydraulic tank and control console (Fig. 13).
2. Later production machines use diodes that plug into
the wiring harness (Fig. 14). Location of the diodes is un-
der the control console.
Testing
The diodes can be individually tested using a digital
multimeter (ohms setting) and the tables below.
