I was being sarcastic, it was definitely the reason why the unit was overheating. I flushed it a few times with distilled water and ran the set. I think the temp gauge is off or the thermostat is stuck open. It never got over 150F with 40a on L1-L3. I ran the set for 30 minutes with that load...

I manually opened them when I started the set. I leave them closed to keep rain out. The temperature never made it over 160 on the gauge which I now know is inaccurate. When coolant started boiling out of the overflow I started watching the temp gauge and it spiked to 160 and then to 0. The oil...

What TM did you find those in? I wasn’t able to locate it.

My mistake, overload relay. After replacing the oil pressure gauge I started getting an overload light when the gen would shutdown. I never saw any idiot. lights except low oil pressure before starting. After putting the old over voltage relay and replacing the fuse I decided to see if it would...

I replaced the fuse already and the panel is good to go. Yes, how to connect the updated over voltage relay. Terminals 1-6 on new teller don’t have same labels as the old one. I also just saw my v belt snapped. I wonder if that could have blown my fuse when I went to close the main breaker or...

Replaced the overload relay in the tactical box with the updated NSN listed by Guy from 2017. I wired exactly how it was, but as you can see from the picture 1-6 doesn’t match the original. Went to close the main breaker and my 1a DC panel fuse blew. Hoping that’s all I damaged as I was able to...

Thanks for checking. That's pretty much what mine was reading. Ended up finding two 15kW 3 phase salamander heaters I'm going to use to load my generators.

I found one used one per the updated NSN you listed in 2017. Hopefully, it works properly. I believe the TM says 30-60psi for oil pressure. Do you recall seeing 60psi? I’m going to get a manual gauge, per Ray’s suggestion.

That’s what I saw and confirmed on your other post about it. Thanks, I think you mentioned it was too hard to test without special equipment. Going to source a replacement

Got my new oil pressure switch installed. It’s not the exact match that I thought it would be, but it’s working. Anyone else have a 004 with oil pressure at 60 psi? Might get a oil pressure tester from harbor freight and test it against my gauge. Now when my set shutdowns without putting battle...

Oil pressure safety harness

Didn't have enough time to pull the special relay box apart, but I did replace the fuel hose from the day tank to the 2nd filter ($28 NAPA). Jumping oil pressure safety harness A-B did not run pumps to fill day tank. Before, if I had the start switch to Run and Battle Short on the pumps would...

I will open the special relay box up again and check the board once more. It's a lot easier now that I know it's only two screws on top....instead of removing all the nuts holding everything together. Only hard part was moving all the wires so they wouldn't get damaged stuffing them back in the...

I didn’t see anything glaring when I inspected it. I put it back together and put it back inside the unit. I don’t work with circuit boards often so I may have missed something. I found one thread where someone repaired their board. Does it happen often and is there a common failure point? The...

Hopefully, I successfully take it apart and put it back together. It was just sitting there not bolted down. Didn’t realize it was only two screws and took off all the mounting screws… R3 and R8 look a little burned up
