IN...

In too...

Yes, I have it hooked up correctly. That was not the issue. There is no power at the L-3 terminal. I guess that I need to switch it it over to 3 phase and see what it reads. This evening I found the test procedure for the ac interrupter and so on. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to it. In the meanwhile...

I finally have this 803a up and running. The trouble now is that there is power to L-1 only when set to 120/240 single phase. I need a little help pointing to the test procedure to track down the malfunction. The front panel shows 240v at this setting and 120v when set inside to 120v and single...

Open your operators manual and look up troubleshooting......

Do you still have a muffler gasket? I removed the muffler to work on the fuel lines and managed to lose mine. ...Ray

I am looking for the 803A electrical schematic with detail, the one's that I've seen are very generic. Thanks for the info though..........

I finally figured it out. It wasn't very "user friendly". I'm still looking for the same info on the 003a though. The wiring diagrams do not show exactly what wires go where. Take for instance the X-1 and X-2 terminals on the K-2 relay, where do they go?

I have downloaded TM5-6115-585-24P for the 803a but cannot find a reference to any "NSN" numbers there.

That's the rub. Where can I find the NSN numbers? Don't I need the parts manual?

Where can I get a parts manual for this MEP 803a? There is a fellow on ebay selling a used start relay for an 003a & I suppose it's the same mechanically, just blue instead of white.

you're right about the K-16 being different. I removed all the relays, sprayed Boeshield on the contacts and reinserted them. Still can't get the canon plugs loose. I reached into the fuel tank but could not touch anything but diesel fuel.

Well I removed the top of the K-2, it does not contract or make contact when S-1 is turned to the start position. How can I test the K-2?

The relays are also very tight in their sockets, are they held in mechanically or just friction?

I'm going to need stronger glasses, I can't see the numbers.
