I'm trying to identify a faulty diode on the Charger-board PWA-WEASEL P4/DD_CHARGER BD from a Packard Bell Versa E400 laptop (weasel by name, weasel by nature! LOL)
It's only marked as 34 26 (item PD7 on the PCB legend)

Whilst I know the diode is short-circuit, due to the close proximity I wonder if the transistor marked as 8K C9 (PU1 on the PCB legend) could also be faulty? though it may have an internal diode that's giving me a double reading from base to emitter? It could prove useful to also know what this component is too?
Can anyone please help?
Thanks in advance
Alan
