Ive replaced the diodes with a bridge recitifer...15 amps, plenty of headroom. However, on measuring I find that I put 21 volts AC into two of the corners but get 21v DC out of the others!! Clearly this is both too much for heaters and too much for the BR to be correctly working or wired. Any thoughts on what might be wrong here??
