That's what I was wondering myself.

The retired Navy Master Chief I work for said that's a habit he's noticed with me...I may not make the most popular remarks or decisions, but I make the right ones. Then again, the retired Marine Captain I used to work for said about the same thing after I turned his lazy butt in for not...

Sorry, go start your own thread...yeah, I'm "that guy"... Thanks again for the help, you're a good Joe! BTW, I downloaded all available information on this unit I could find from here and a few other places.

It puts out voltage like it should now. Thanks again! Next week I'll cobble together a 3 phase load bank and test it....and get the right fuse...all they had were 10A fuses rated 250vac, it supposed to be a 3A 600V rated fuse.

I'm off to Lowes to hunt for a fuse, I'll post what I find and if it works.

Fuse KLK 3 is what's in it

LOL, I owe you a beer! Either it's blown, or I've forgotten how to read a meter.....It's reading Mega-Ohms ....I guess I'll run to Lowes and see if they have a 3a fuse...

I'll check that ina minute.

I'll check that ina minute. Doesn't that go to the F1-F2 going to the exciter? If so, it's got to be good because I have correct voltage/Hz when I hold the starter engaged after it runs? Im starting to think the problem is the voltage regulator. If this thing works like I think it does, the...

2.3-2.7VAC during cranking, it will not run without the mag pickup connected from what it looks like.

The "modified start sequence" yielded AC output at the correct voltage/Hz as long as start control was engaged, then both went to zero. It'll take a few minutes to get to the Mag pickup and check voltage at the pickup.

No, I'll check the mag pickup. Where does it come out at on the control end? I'm going to "assume" it's run off the teeth on the flywheel. I'll try the "modified start sequence" in just a few minutes. BRB in a few and post the results.

I have a MEP-804A generator I'm trying to help a guy out with. It's connected 120/208. The symptoms are no AC output. I've noticed as long as the start switch is held, it has AC output, release it and it goes away. So I know the start disconnect circuit works along with the generator end...
