    MEP-002A Not producing power

    Guyfang said something about l have exciter voltage but the generator would not light off. I have checked resistances on stator and think they are okay. To check for a short I just connect one lead to body of gen head and other lead to each pin of J9 and J10? Since the exciter produces a little...

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    I think somehow I uploaded it twice. Sorry it took so long for me to reply. All help is appreciated. I may be able to work on it some Monday.

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    How do I read gen windings? As far as I know rotating diodes are ok.

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    Convenience outlet update. It reads 0.3v AC but when I hold start to flash field it climbs to 28v AC.

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    I noticed on the other thread that you folks shared that the gentleman read the generator windings. I don’t know where to read them. Rotating diodes seem to be okay. CTV has one reading slightly low at 2.0 ohms (H3-H4). CT1 readings are a little high at .7, .7, and .65. Generator windings would...

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    On CT1 1A-2A 0.55 1B - 2B. 0.55 1C - 2C. 0.7 Is this enough of a difference to cause a problem?

    Another No Voltage thread, MEP-003A

    I also would be interested in a retrofit for the output box. I definitely don’t know enough about electronics to design one. I have an MEP-002a that’s not producing power. I may need a CVT or CT not sure yet.

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    I have a TM for it. I checked CT1 (not CVT) and 1C to 2C reads 0.2 ohms instead of 0.5. Do I need to unhook all the wires to read it, or only the terminals I’m testing?

    No power at convenience outlets.

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    It’s outside and covered. Just quit producing power this week. We’ve been using it daily. I switched out the voltage regulator, looked at the spinning diodes (did not test them) and I did move the switch back and forth. Still no power. I have not been in the box where the output wires come out yet.

    MEP-002A Not producing power

    Runs fine. Quit producing power. Moved start switch to flash field, did not help. What could it be?

    mep-002a stuck float in day tank

    Thanks for all the replies. Also, if I run the generator out of fuel, does it damage anything or cause a problem?
