    MEP Starter Issue--Not lockout switch?-Help

    Thanks. I'll double check voltage to the top of K3. I does crank when I hook a separate switch to the top and bottom of K3. So the solenoid does work, just not when I use the master switch. I guess that says something. I'll clean out the master switch as well.

    MEP Starter Issue--Not lockout switch?-Help

    Oh and Speddmon. I did look at the diode behind K1, CR1. I don't have the knowledge to do a test. It "looked" fine. If I need one does anyone have a source?

    MEP Starter Issue--Not lockout switch?-Help

    Thanks. Especially Speddmon. I still have the same problem. I started over on the diagnostics. I looked at the starter lock out switch, the contacts were touching and I did get continuity. I tried the starter--no cranking. I pulled the lockout plug and jumped the two wires to the control box...

    I replaced that starter and solenoid and still have the same problem. I jumped the starter lock out and nothing. I did make some progress. I bought a remote trigger type starter switch and put the clamps on the solenoid and reached over and turned the master switch to start...it cranked and...

    MEP Starter Issue--Not lockout switch?-Help

    Thanks. I jumped the solenoid with a remote starter switch and the bendix turned but didn't engage the flywheel. I'll take a look at the schematic and work my way back. I jumped the starter lock out switch and got nothing...also checked and cleaned all the grounds--including to the control box...

    MEP Starter Issue--Not lockout switch?-Help

    I bought two MEP002s on M103A trailer. Both have their issues but one has me baffled. When I first got it I tested it after cleaning the fuel system. It puffed white smoke and kicked off. I shut it down so I could check the fuel system again. I installed civilian spin on fuel and oil filters...
