Picked up two Mep 831's during the last Lockborne auction. Both with 2 hours since last reset in 2012. Conducted all the PMCS prior to attempting to start. The first started, load tested and runs flawlessly. The second started, smoked a wee bit more than the other, produces power to the convenience outlet and frequency converter output but will not produce power to the load legs.
Referred to the TM for trouble shooting the following symptons:
1.) The no fuel warning light remains on even after filling the tank and resetting the fault reset.
2.) The circuit interrupt does not seem to close and does not light
3.) The emergency stop and power switch do not shut the engine down and requires the engine to be shut down manually
My thought process was to start with the most logical and simplest method and test the fuel level switch. The TM indicates to place the positive probe of a multi-meter to the P4-10 and the neg to test point 31. Cant seem to find the the location of P4-10 test point
So my questions are:
Where is the P4-10 test point?
Will replacing the fuel level switch correct the other symptoms?
Am I starting the trouble shooting sequence correctly?
Should I be looking at something else?
Any advice will be appreciated.
