Why would I remove a rectifier if that's how I received the amp originally?
Someone put a rectifier where a fet should have been before i received the amp?

Ok.
So I'm removing the right rectifer and putting an original fdp2552 fet in its place to triple affirm?

1. Are you suggesting this because you are looking at a reference?
2. Explain what clamp everything means

Did you see the photo?
Do not power up with the semiconductors in free air. Clamp them down to their heatsinks. With no heatsinking, they can overheat and fail within seconds if there is a problem.

Can i ask what picture you are looking at that told you there should be 1 rectifer instead of 2? I'm preparing to swap it....
It's part of a photo someone sent me when they were asking for help with their amp. This is all I have other than the meter readings you posted to make this suggestion. You don't seem confident and I cannot guarantee that this is correct. You can wait until someone can tell you definitively what goes there. Have you tried asking JL? They may not provide a diagram but may tell you what goes there.
I don't see a photo where you removed anything. The rectifier in the right-hand location (FDP2552 in the photo) is what you need to remove.
That's a new angle and the board is different than the one I posted.
What's the resistance between the center pins of those two components?
Did you ask JL?

Fdb2552 is coming up as a mosfet in Google.
Mur1640cta is coming up as a recrifer. So I removed the one in the right.
