    Main start switch dead Mep-802

    My face is red. And not because I'm half American Indian. I'm embarrassed. The red emergency shut down switch was engaged. Oh well, I guess it gave me an excuse to do a good visual inspection of the unit. Thanks to everyone who tried to help this old fart, I truly do appreciate it. RD Sent...

    Main start switch dead Mep-802

    S1 is dead no clicking no lights no pump noise...nothing. The float module in the tank was replaced about 2 years ago. When I discovered what looked like an empty main fuel tank, I put about 4 gallons in it and it was full so, I'm not so sure it ran to empty.

    Main start switch dead Mep-802

    When using the aux tank, it just keeps the main tank full but if S1 is in the main position instead of the aux position, it will run the main empty.

    Main start switch dead Mep-802

    No sound at S1 at all! I refilled the tank from a 5 gallon jug. Its as rodent proof as I can get it. Its mounted inside a "wind and water tight" shipping container. Doors are always closed.

    Main start switch dead Mep-802

    I've been using my MEP-802 for my off grid property for about 3 years. Its been great! Ran the gen for about 10 hours about 2 weeks ago to charge the RV batteries, watch TV etc. Went back to the property about 1 week later to find the main start switch dead (no clicking no lights no nothing). I...
