    802A issues need help!!

    Your Battery Ammeter gauge is pegged all the way right, does it not zero when off? It appears to not be functioning properly as well.

    802A issues need help!!

    Your machine lacks the quad fuse modification (addition of a fuse, inline of the voltage regulator). I would not run the machine again, till you have added the parts. If you look that phrase up by the search function here, you will find all the info you need.

    802A issues need help!!

    Test for 24v with a handheld probe, see if you have voltage at both soldered wire sets on the fuse tube.

    802A issues need help!!

    That FU1 is the DC fuse, if its not seated and the connection is broken, you aren't getting the power from the alternator, down to charge the batteries. Have you taken a multimeter to the pins on the back of the alternator, to see if you are getting 26-29V output?

    MEP004A Access Panel/Door

    Maybe reach out to @Suprman to see if he has what you need. I know he has a 72-2108 up on fleabay, so maybe he has other panels in stock.

    Great when they work, and are ready on standby

    Power went down about 450 last night, and came up at 8A this morning. 802 never missed a beat.

    Great when they work, and are ready on standby

    Had a microburst tornado roll through an adjacent town and the southern tip of mine earlier tonight. Total mess, both towns are down... trees down everywhere, roof collapses, folks stuck. 802 is humming away while I make dinner.

    No AC output MEP-802A

    It certanly isn't the best methodology... but you also have to be cognizant of the fuses used. Sometimes folks take shortcuts in making the fix ;)

    MEP-802A questions

    I personally would only use if the gaskets are not readily available, or in an emergency. Both the water pump gasket as well as pump to manifold gasket should both be readily sourceable.

    MEP-802A questions

    Loosen the nut on the face of that panel (on the oil pressure sender side) and see if you can push that angled fitting backwards enough to get wrenches in. Only other option is to disconnect/remove the oil pressure sender assembly, loosen and remove that same large nut, and push out of the hole...

    Take care of the O rings and replace the pump to manifold gasket at the same time: https://dpequip.net/shop/generator-parts/5330-01-358-5435-lister-petter-751-40450-lpw-water-pump-housing-to-cylinder-head-gasket-onan-186-6182/

    No AC output MEP-802A

    Do you have power at the gauges (voltage and hertz registering) as well as AC at the convenience outlet?

    No AC output MEP-802A

    Have you removed the roof panel over the operator controls, to look at the entire area 'where the magic happens'?

    No AC output MEP-802A

    Burnt grounds don't 'just happen'. I think that needs to be thoroughly fleshed out, before you worry about AC out. Would hate for YOU to become the ground.
