Guy fang, sorry it's been a while since I contacted you last. I've been out of town with work. I actually bought a new relay box brand new with red plastic caps on it so I'm assuming the A5 card is good in there. I still have no power.
I checked TB-16 for ac voltage. When I was starting the...
It looks like you're thinking it's the a 5 card. I don't have a 400 Hz supply. And it is that a 400 Hz unit. Should I disconnect all the wires from the a 5 card and take it out To do the testing. Thank you again for your time sir.. You're a true asset
Thanks for all the great info! I took out the a-5 card and nothing was burnt or abnormal. I have then hooked up all the cannon connectors. I tested a5-2 To ground DC voltage. 0 Volts... I then tried a5-13 to ground dcv. I have 24 volts while starting. Is it still the S9 Speed switch...
Hope you had a good holiday. Happy New Year. And thank you for your reply!
I found the terminal board with the 4 wires Back connect the generator set to the static exciter. I checked AC and DC. between the terminals. And each terminal to ground. A couple of times I've got a 2 V read out but...
1st off merry Christmas!
Guyfang .... You've helped me in the past And you've been a lifesaver. I have a new problem.

Hi there sir. I'm having a new problem and I'm hoping you're still around to guide me through it. I have an MEP005A. About a year ago it was running...
For heaven's sakes you're a lifesaver. My family was originally from Germany. Last name is Zemke. I believe the last couple letters may have been played with when they got off the boat to America.
Let me give you a very big thank you bud. We all appreciate what you donate. You guys have Home...
I found my problem. I replaced the speed switch i think. Left front of generator, seats in the side of the block with a Cannon plug on the top. The plunger/ cam piece on the inside was broke.
I have a parts unit on-site
So now the generator starts up and delivers power immediately like...
Thank you again for your reply. I removed the J 9 Cannon plug and tested the D pin (bottom pin) to the frame of the generator while somebody started the generator and held it in the start position. I did not get any DC voltage.
Just to be clear I wasn't sure if I should test the wire harness...
Hi there thanks for your response. After I start the generator there is no voltage until I excite the field with a battery. Everything looks good in the voltage regulator and static Exciter. When I start the unit I don't get any voltage out of the static Exciter on pin A + B. On the Canon...
Hi there. Does anyone repair the circuitry the static Exciter box? I believe i have it narrowed down to this box. Would anybody happen to have a used one? The part number is 30554 72 2605. Mep005a
thankyou!
