If there is no letter (I have a 6V positive ground diode type with no letter) on the bottom what I have picked up; (funprojects) there is a laser cut "V" on the bottom, if it is bent up it is a regulator, if left flat with bottom it is a diode type. If it out of warranty, take the cover off and look. They didn't make a lot of "CUTOUT" types as they were meant for cars that got driven much (more show then go).
