    Mep-802a - amp meter not working.

    I don't know what I am thinking. I was looking at the wrong Gauge. M4 only has 2 post. The meter from Oshkosh will work.

    Shc35 need help finding parts

    I did see the one on eBay but $399 is a god awful price. I was hoping for something more responsible. That's a new unit at that price.

    Mep-802a - amp meter not working.

    1st thanks for all the reply's. I would have responded with the my findings sooner had it not been for an episode of the old Covid-19. I am better now and put a multimeter on it and checked the voltages at MT4. There is voltage so I am confidant that the meter is bad. It looks to me like there...

    Mep-802a - amp meter not working.

    Ok. Thanks. Well unlike fuel prices, M4 doesn't move at all. I have watched some YouTube videos of others running there generators and they usually show a amp draw at startup and then about 5 amps charge after. Mine never moves. Is there a way to check it or is there a fuse that is blown...

    Mep-802a - amp meter not working.

    Hello, Just recently purchased a mep-802a with 13 hours on it. I am having trouble with the amp meter. It does not move at all. I have checked the voltage at the batteries while it is running and the batteries are getting voltage from the alternator. I checked for voltage at the amp meter while...

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    Up and running! Ordered a plug and wired it up. Tested the ventilation and heat setting. Expected the heater to put out more then what it does, but oh well. Tried the ac for a sec. Going to test that later today. Only thing I don't like is the plug didnt come with any pre shielding or clamps...

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    On the very inside of the plug is says 4-20. That said I pulled a ton of screws out and never got close to the receptacle. But I did find a schematic behind the front panel. It shows the following for the power receptacle. J1, MS 3100R-20-4PX P1, MS 3106R-20-4SX

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    Got it. It was still in the crate. Smells like an old museum, lol. Here are a couple of pics of the unit and the plug. Would someone verify the plug type to the part numbers previously supplied. Getting excite to see this run.

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    I am heading out there Friday. They list them as unused, but that could mean just about anything. Maybe they don't sell a plug but maybe they have something to test it. If I do make the purchase I will post a pic of the plug just to make sure. Measure twice cut once.

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    Thanks for the help! There are plenty of plugs available. Now all I have to do is get out there and check out the ac units. On another note, does anyone know how often the coolant needs to be recharged? Are military units prone to leaking? Or should I not have to worry about it?

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    I went back to the original post that had some information on the plug. They say it is a Amphenol Female Military Mil Spec Circular Connector MS3108A20-4S 4 Pins 90 Deg ". Did some looking and didn't turn up much.

    Can you recommend a shelter AC/heater that would be better for me? Still like this model very much but I'm no electrician. I don't need to burn the unit up my 1st attempt .

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    Thanks for the manuals. I will read through them tonight. I'm hoping there's something in there that'll tell me what type of plug it is and how to wire it up. There is another post that I found that does list the part number for the plug but I am unsuccessful in finding a supplier. What...

    NSN: 4120-01-327-5447 power plug help

    Called Colemans yesterday and today. They are going to do some research into a plug. Seems strange to sell the unit but not the power cord. My own Google search has turned up nothing. Hoping a solution will turn up.
