Default meauring resistance of a bridge rectifier

I have a bridge rectifier that shows infinite resitance in all ranges
except the 2000K range

In the 2000K range, it shows infinite in one direction for each of the
four pairs of connectors and either 660, 770, or 880K ohms for the other
direction.

This seems high to me! It's a digital meter with iirc a 1.5 volt
battery.

The rectifier is used in a 12 amp 110VAC electric lawn mower,

Should I get out another meter? I have almost alll kinds.

I usually measure diodes that have under 1000 ohms in the conductive
direction.

AIUI the resistance drops under load, but from 880K to 10?
