I would start with the CB2. Its easy. Four mounting screws, if they are there. Six nuts on the load wires. The C-Plug. Its out.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
will do, appreciate the directionI would start with the CB2. Its easy. Four mounting screws, if they are there. Six nuts on the load wires. The C-Plug. Its out.
So I pulled it and opened it up, one of the two microswitches is stuck down, and there is definitely some corrosion. the three contact points on the top are not all capable of contacting at the same time, look like they have arced a bit. Can I find a new one somewhere? I can clean it up but not exactly sure what its supposed to look like. I see a couple on ebay but I don't think they are the right one.I would start with the CB2.

The inside is corroded I ended up snapping off several bolts taking it apart, and there was definitely arcing going on inside.Sure. Look up the part number and NSN in the TM, plug it in your browser. See what comes up. Post your results here, if, or if you have no problems.
When the load contacts are arced a lot, its a sure sign that the set was:
1. Turned off, before CB2 was opened.
2. Had a lot of failures under load.
3. Had problems opening and closing due to corrosion.
SO ALL interchangable?Good detective work!! They are all the same CB's. Completely interchangeable. How much for the ebay CB?

In the TM nsn # 5925-00-686-3298 description says 75 amp. maybe 7.5 amp?that is a comprehensive list! will see what i can find! definitely owe you a beer. (no cheap American beer!)
can I use a surface mount 75 amp breaker to replace the push pull that feeds the panel? (Why not. But 75 amp is a little big. Its suposed to be 15 Amp. if I remember right. )
I ordered the one off ebay. will be here in a week.

no not really stressing over this. I just want it to work correctly and I can wire in a 7.5 panel mount breaker.There are several NSN's and part numbers if you want them.
yeah but its pretty amazing what can be delivered locally. I have read through a lot of peoples posts about problems they are having and you are a Huge resource. should be celebrated.I drink GREAT German and Czech beer. So the mass produced beers are what we call cheap beer, even if the price is high. Not to worry. Unless you are coming over here, its not going to be a problem.Postage is a Killer!!
took a couple of years of German in high school... a long time ago... Looks like a good beer..Then Prost!

the machine will start and run. just not very long. and then the breaker pops. if its running would suggest its not the fuel pump?Pull the wires out of the two Electric Fuel pumps and try and start the set. They go bad , and the CB1, (7.5 amp) should pop. That is the first place I would start. What ever is causing the short, is something that is needed in the run position.
