    need TM to test the voltage regulator

    good deal...a full garage is a happy garage..:-D:-D:-D:-D

    MEP 003 fluctuating voltage

    The new voltage regulator probably needs adjusted. The TM explains the test circuit for checking and adjusting the voltage regulator (I'm sure you saw this in your troubleshooting of the other regulator). Because of the age of these units, I'm guessing that the regulator is a used one, it's...

    MEP 002A issues

    Update for ya...the start disconnect switch is located right above the oil filter can, under a little metal cover (see picture). What I would do is take apart the connector for the two wires going to that switch, and take a small piece of wire, and jump the two wires going back to the control...

    MEP 002A issues

    if that's the case, it sounds like relay "k3" is not coming in. There is a "start disconnect switch" on the set somewhere. Don't ask me where...I'll go look here in a little bit. But if that switch is open, you'll get no power to the starter solenoid (The starter still will work if you jump...

    Starter help needed!!!! (Hatz Diesel Engine)

    Hey folks, A while ago I bought a surplus 2 cylinder air cooled diesel engine from Kansas (Ft. Riley) gimpyrobb and I made the very looooong journey out to get it, and I have spent the last month or two getting it put back together. It came fairly complete, but I had to fabricate an intake...

    MEP 002A issues

    Do the fuel pumps come on when you turn the switch to the Prime/Run setting? If not, Check the DC circuit breaker right on the front panel beside the master switch. If that breaker is "tripped" that would also explain the lack of generated power because that breaker supplies the 24 volts to...

    need TM to test the voltage regulator

    voltage variation when it's running should not be normal....go through the TM and adjust the voltage regulator. There are a couple of pots to adjust and the TM covers them pretty well...you may need to take it back out and hook it up to the simple test circuit though. As to the DC side, are...

    Lights

    excellent troubleshooting skills!!!! :razz: I'll bet that's one area you'll always check from now on when you have blinker issues.

    Lights

    actually, to my understanding anyway, most of the newer blinkers are solid state. But if it's the blinker you probably wouldn't have any turn signals at all....it's the same blinker, same circuit for both left and right. Like doghead said, I would start with the grounds, then if that fails...

    Holy cow I won one!

    I don't have any bows on my truck yet, so I can't confirm that for you....but you have photographic evidence that the bows and cover were in the truck when it was listed...if they are gone try to get the GL rep to write on your invoice that they are missing and sign it, then file a loss claim...

    Wreckerman's M915 update

    Here's a thought...does AL have a provision for a "Farm" plate for the registration of the truck?? Here in Ohio, I can get a "farm" plate for any truck I want...WITHOUT a CDL!!!! Now there are some restrictions of course...But really they are only minor things. The vehicle has to be used at...

    fighting trans install need help

    To be honest, I am just going by what Recovry4x4 told me...after I had mine all back together. I've never bothered to look at it to see if it's first or reverse that pulls it in. Here is a link...Pulled the transmission today!!!

    MEP-005 (30KW) air cleaner needed

    Read through this thread...Air filter element MEP007 genset. The 007 and 005 both use the same filter according to the NSN. someone posted a few places to try and the manufacturer part numbers in that thread.

    Another MEP-003a for my buddy but.....

    mounts may be as simple as it get when it comes to cars. These 4 little mounts are holding up and keeping stable over 1100 pounds of motor and generator head. And it's not like a regular engine mount either, the hole through the casting is over 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Also, it's not a...

    fighting trans install need help

    Try putting the transmission in reverse before you try to lift it into place. You're probably having the same trouble I had...the small shaft on the upper/back of the transmission for the old sprag transfer cases was getting hung up on the cross member right behind the transmission. This...
