    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    I measured across the lugs on the MT4 and there is in fact 25V on each when measured. I never could see if the link between them is good so today I just ordered a new MT4 as it's less expensive to change out the possibilities all at once than it is to drive back and forth and waste gas as it's...

    Thank you for the tip, I’ll read the manual in reference to these J5/P5 and J6/P6 connectors

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    I see you seem to like OJT, but if you knew the answer and withhold it then what’s the point of these forums? It’s not a treasure hunt, it’s a problem that I need an answer to. Simple, uncomplicated and easy for someone to pass along to others in need.

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    I found the MT4 but it was not as simple as the diagram made it seem as the S10 and the MT4 are not even close to one another. In fact it is hidden away behind a panel making it very hard to find when looking for. Yes it was labeled, however I am barely able to get my head in there and how I...

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    a little problem is a diagram is not a 3D representation of the items plus the harness has a million little wires and the items are not labeled as per a number like CB1

    Is this CB1?

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    I check continuity between #1 on the dead crank switch and the small wire on the starter solenoid and they are connected

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    this fuse has 25v on both sides of it and continuity so it’s good

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    Where where would CB1 be located? it ran perfect then it just went dead like a circuit breaker tripped and that would make the most sense

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    does anyone know what the MT4 looks like?

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    i agree and it doesn’t crank hmmmm but the panel doesn’t show life either and the starter solenoid would not control that

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    and the engine does not start when I jump the starter wires as it spins with no problem but won’t light off

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    But that does not explain why the fuel pump does not run when the switch is turned on

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    starter has 25v and I can jump the starter and the engine cranks fine but no fire

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    I cannot find the MT4. I see that it comes off the alternator and I see nothing like this in the engine compartment and nothing labeled inside the control panel box I see a solenoid next to the dead crank switch and some type of white plastic thingy inside the voltage panel I checked the...

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    About to drive the 2 hrs to the generator and after reading your comments, I have concluded (maybe incorrectly) that the MT4 is the "Battery Charging ammeter Shunt" and that the S10 is the "Dead Crank Switch" . I plan on checking the current and possibly making a jumper wire if the switch is...

    MEP-804B Problem Starting

    Sorry, the ignition switch. It has 25V on the #8Lug. Voltage drops when I turn the ignition switch to start and then leg 3 has like a 6V power running through it and I believe lug7 does as well. Yes the "Battery Charge Ammeter" has the 25V on it's legs. What I didn't check was the voltage...
