    831a with no power to the lugs.

    Here is an explaination of the pins on A2 and what they do. The 24 VDC voltages noted below are approximate values. P4-1 Battle Short This is an input to A2 from S7 the Battle Short Switch. With BS OFF this pin will be at 24 VDC. With BS ON this pin will be at 0 VDC. With BS ON it inhibits A2...

    831a with no power to the lugs.

    PM me your email. I thought you were someone else! edit: Email with schematics sent! You need to put enough fuel in it to get the Low Fuel fault to go away. Sometimes the flat sticks so you may need to reach in the tank and jiggle the appropriate float. The Low Fuel Fault to trip K12 and...

    831a with no power to the lugs.

    The schematics in the newer -13 TM are hard to read but the schematic in an older version is easy to read. I always use the older TM when needing to look at the schematic. I just generated a PDF of readable schematics and emailed them to you just now via email.

    831a with no power to the lugs.

    When pull starting and the batteries are missing or dead you have to manually lift the actuator off the magnet, pin the actuator into the manual start position, hit the compression release valve, move S1 to Run, pull start it. K12's LED will be on once it starts. Once it starts toggle S1...

    831a with no power to the lugs.

    The Governor Controller A5 module is responsible for making the actuator to lift off the magnet when you start the set when using the electric start. If it's not lifting off the magnet then there may be an issue with the Governor Controller. They are prone to being flakey or go bad. There may...

    831a with no power to the lugs.

    The reason it won't shut down even with the Emergency Stop button is because the K12 Fault relay is tripped. When it's tripped it kills power to the generator controls including the Governor Controller (GC). Normal shutdown requires the GC to have power and when S1 is moved to STOP that action...

    831a with no power to the lugs.

    OK, problem is that K12's LED is ON meaning the set has detected a Fault. When there is a Fault the set will not allow the contactor to be closed under normal conditions. Are any of the Fault Monitor lamps illuminated? Are you pull starting the set or using the starter?

    831a with no power to the lugs.

    With the set running the LED inside K15 should be illuminated. The LED's in K12 and K14 should NOT be illuminated. Here are a sequence of test steps to narrow down where the problem is. 1) Battle Short OFF 2) Connect your DC voltmeters negative lead to chassis ground. 3) Set you meter so it...
