Ac clutch diode

Done a ls swap a while back and just now adding ac. Im using the thirdgen air compressor and ac wiring. When i wire this diode in its parallel with the ac clutch on the 12volt side of clutch correct? Im assuming any 12 volt 1 watt diode will work? Anyone know? Thanks

Re: Ac clutch diode

Yes, pretty much.

A 1N400x diode would be fine. More is better. (within reason) A good one to buy is this one.

Buy a bunch; they're pretty handy to have around. At that price, can't afford NOT to have them in your bag o tricks.
