Yes, I have it hooked up correctly. That was not the issue. There is no power at the L-3 terminal. I guess that I need to switch it it over to 3 phase and see what it reads. This evening I found the test procedure for the ac interrupter and so on. Maybe tomorrow I'll get to it. In the meanwhile...
I finally have this 803a up and running. The trouble now is that there is power to L-1 only when set to 120/240 single phase. I need a little help pointing to the test procedure to track down the malfunction. The front panel shows 240v at this setting and 120v when set inside to 120v and single...
I finally figured it out. It wasn't very "user friendly". I'm still looking for the same info on the 003a though. The wiring diagrams do not show exactly what wires go where. Take for instance the X-1 and X-2 terminals on the K-2 relay, where do they go?
Where can I get a parts manual for this MEP 803a? There is a fellow on ebay selling a used start relay for an 003a & I suppose it's the same mechanically, just blue instead of white.
you're right about the K-16 being different. I removed all the relays, sprayed Boeshield on the contacts and reinserted them. Still can't get the canon plugs loose. I reached into the fuel tank but could not touch anything but diesel fuel.
Looking at the electrical schematic, it appears that the circuit goes directly from the cranking relay to the solenoid. I have power at the output side of the relay but not at the solenoid.
With the wiring harness so neatly tied up you cannot trace the wiring. I guess that they couldn't come up...
