The diode is neither shorted nor open. It is a zener diode and it is conducting in both directions. If it were truly shorted, it would read closer to zero ohms in both directions.
It depends on how the diode is damaged. There are generally two cases. One, the diode is shorted, and conducts with a low impedance in both directions. The other, the diode is open, and does not conduct, having a high impedance, in both directions. The effect depends on the particular circuit. In a power supply, a shorted diode will often blow the fuse, while an open diode will result in no output, or in high ripple voltage output. Is it possible that diode has normal voltage output but wrong current,meaning low mA?
With a 10mA forward bias current, if the voltages at the anode and cathode of a diode in a circuit are found to be the same, then the diode most likely to be shorted.
There must be a break in the power supply elsewhere in the circuit. I suggest a blown fuse The only diode that generates electricity is a solar cell
Assuming the DMM is rated to test diodes (not all are), meaning that it presents more than forward drop voltage to the diode, a shorted diode will test nearly zero ohms, usually in both directions.
A battery cannot be drained by a shorted diode when the ignition key is off.

It depends on which diode, but sometimes it can.
due to high voltage across the diode ie more than piv of the diode or current flows more than maximum allowed range of diode.
shorted

A: A very low reading in both direction will indicate a shorted diode. A meter is an indicator not a tester keep that in mind
Diode symbols look like open triangles with horizontal lines extending from either side. There will be a vertical line at the tip of the triangle that may have turned ends depending upon the type of diode.

The most straightforward and unbiased way is to remove the diode from the circuit and check it with a diode tester. Alternatively, if the diode is shorted, the bridged will measure shorted. If it is open, running the generator and monitoring the output with an oscilloscope will reveal a missing phase. One example of an open diode problem in an automobile alternator application is that the alternator will put out enough current to keep the system fail light off, but not put out enough current to meet rated output load.
the power suppy diode are probably shorted.
