Nice one!!!
:D:D:D:D

Did hear of a famous comic once doing similar but on a plane with a tin of potato salad, in a sick bag, but that may well be an urban myth.
Love the way your Mrs helped out!!!:):):):)

:):), lol

indeed and really useto make me laugh when she got up to mischief with things like that ;)

ps, can’t believe she’s been gone 9 x years now , can still feel her on my arms as she slowly drifted away :(
 
no probs , see that even on the parts diagrams it doesn’t show the diode

hope u get it sorted out :)
Now forgive me for any ignorance I show here, but isn't a diode pack actually quite a simple thing? so couldn't one just tack the thing apart, test each diode until you find the one that needs replacing then buy that? Shouldn't it have it's part number/rating /etc marked on it?
Can't be any tougher than a simple mains 240v AC battery charger and I have taken mine apart and tested it.
And as you know I am feckin useless with modern electrix!!
E&OE

hi mate

to be honest I’m not 100% sure, as a guide though this is what it takes to replace a diode pack in a discovery 3’s Denso alternator

Interesting! I note the mentions of "industrial solder" never knew such a thing existed.
Also that he said the only way to test one is one the car cos it's controlled by the BCM. Whata palaver!
And as the guy said, he could see the two diodes that needed replacing. Hence my remark.
I wonder how many of these are generic and whether one could pinch a pack of another Denso to use?
Trust me to think like that!:rolleyes:;):(
 
....well odd little day here.:confused:
We got up on time cos we were expecting a guy to come and clean the oven. We normally do it ourselves but that entails the use of a sink and as the utility one is no longer in, temporarily, the only other one is the new one, and Wifey doesn't want that one scratched. (She hates the job anyway and I'm not keen either!)
So the bloke came round and I asked him where his van was, with the tank full of caustic soda in, to soak all the innards. He said, "My bike is parked out on the road". So as he would only have done it the same way as us, he was on his way, a bit miffed understandably.:(:(:(
So W got on tinternet and phone to try and find another one. One had a special offer, £35 for a single oven, so she rang to book it, she let drop it was in a double oven but we only wanted the main oven cleaning as we hardly use the top one. the female than said "Well it's £55 as it's in a double oven, and it'll be bigger? WTF!!!!! Noo! actually smaller than our last single and all others we know of.:mad::mad::mad:
So she got the bum's rush.
Tried all over the place, the rest were even more expensive, so in the end went back to them :mad::mad::mad: and booked them to do both ovens online. What a farce, but at least it'll be cheaper than getting it done by any of the others.
Tried cleaning the rest of the ceiling, still got totally bamboozling, lovely areas of white but the odd grey strip? Cannot make head nor tail of it. but at least it'll take paint. ;)
Does anyone else use those stupid card readers with online banking?:rolleyes:
I have a Nationwide one and I hate it. It took me three goes to change a direct debit and each time I failed it was cos the card reader just suddenly went off. And I'd checked the batteries, which I remove every time, and they were above spec. So "Chatted " them and they are sending a new one.:rolleyes:
I'll also drop into the branch to give them my mobile number, much though i hate having to do this.
Once upon a time they just used special data known only to you. what was so wrong with that?:(:(:(
