No AC output

It looks like you arent getting enough excitation

Ah, I see... I read where you said Hz at 60 and everything else was working and I assumed that meant the outlet was also working.
Looking above it looks like voltage there is a gen head issue, or regulator problem.
When you said Quad fuse was good, I assume you tested with a meter?

I checked the fuse with my MM ohms. If I remember right the fuse is a time delay reset. I did remove it to test. I did apply 24V to X and Y. I applied ground and power to the terminals with the wires disconnected. Switch between hot X-ground Y and vice versa. Did not hear anything. I did get some sparking both ways. I would think it would click like a starter solenoid. I new by the end of the day I would most likely be at the stator head. Also the gen ran for 7 hours during a power outage. Ran my house and garage. I just went out to run it, and hear I am. Is there a way to test the AC voltage regulator ? As said it does have the fuse Mod., and the varistor. I dont think I will go to the stator head, I will most likely just sell it. At least I do have a title for the trailer.

Okay, I already took it off completely. No improvement. Still nothing on the voltage gauge. Hertz is running 60 on the nose. The light for the AC Interrupter Switch does not light up. Nothing at the convenience receptacle. Everything else on the machine is working properly. I find it hard to believe that one little ground wire is the culprit here. I rechecked the fuse on the quad relay that is in the regulator, good. This thing is spotless under the panels. 40 hours on its tier 2.

You still do not seem to understand. I told you that the burnt wire HAS NOTHING to do with you lack of output. I tried to tell you that the wire could be burnt because you had the gen set improperly wired to the house.

I then told you how to check the K1. You seem to have forgotten to do that. This is also the first time you have told us that you have no voltage at the 120 volt outlet. That right there tells us the K1 is NOT THE Problem. You have no initial excitation.

I fed 24V to X and Y on K1 terminals with the wires disconnected. Ground X power Y and vice versa. No clicking, just some tiny sparks. I took K1 apart best I know, because I cant find this "TM" you talk about for taking it apart. Took the 4 screws out of the top and cleaned the 3 contacts. Took the 4 screws out of the bottom and all looked brand new. I test across K1 A1 to B1 2.6 vac, A2 to B1 2.5 vac, B2 to C1 24.5 vac, B1 to C1 14.5 vac, C2 to C1 24.5 vac. Generator running.

Take the fuse out of the holder and test it. it is a slow blow fuse, but there is no such thing as a time delay reset fuse.
Remove it and retest it.

I am sorry if I did not send this prior. Alot of suggestions.

I did remove it to test it. It tests fine.
