diode
An electrical component that allows electricity to flow only one way. Used in the rectifier bridge of an alternator. Also used as L.E.D. (light emitting diode) lights.

Guy at alternator rebuilders shop: "Those rank amatures don't know what they're talking about, and neither do you, you dumb ass."
