I discovered a new possible "cause". I've spent the morning checking and double checking the stator/rotor/rectifiers/excitor/ and excitor stator. I pulled the generator cover and the excitor stator off. When I look at the stator there are 8 winding coils with the laminations. One of...

I tried putting power to the frequency transducer and got a huge spark! It wasn't connected long enough to see if gauge worked, (plus I jumped 3 feet), and I wasn't going to try it again. I measured voltage instead. I've got just 5.40 volts at frequency transducer, same at terminals 7...

I'm not around tomorrow to check all these things out you just provided for me. But you have given me a great start with how to check the transducer and I'll get some photos uploaded in next few days. It has positive and negative marked terminals on one side of the frequency transducer...
