Testing DC characteristics is not enough, we would need to test AC as well.

Thank you. I will likely be replacing it anyways.

For the silicon diode, I have seen this one:

1N4148FS-ND

For the Capacitor, I have selected this one:

Kemet T491C106K016AT

I am pretty sure the capacitor is the correct one. However, I am not so sure of the silicon diode (see its forward voltage, for instance). Would anyone care to weigh in with a recommendation for a silicon diode with a 0.6V forward voltage, suitable for this application?

EDIT - I am not experienced in selecting this sort of thing, so bear with me!

Thank you!
