    MEP-805B Will not Start

    I wired both of mine white to white, then whatever the other is together. EDIT I was mistaken on what you were asking for. White wire, 14v on start, 10.2v on run Red/black, 0v on start, .2v on run All measurements with black to ground on actuator, not to block or battery. I am assuming on...

    MEP-805B Will not Start

    I normally have to hit the fault reset 2 times, because I have done it backwards since I started working on them, I added the start video to reply, I even do it wrong on the video, but it wont wear out that switch any faster having to click it twice

    MEP-805B Will not Start

    I just cycled thru mine watching the light inside the cabin, and the actuator light does not light if you forget to push the fault reset button. I fubu'ed on that myself this morning, so that might be something else to look at. Master on, wait for cim to boot, rotary switch to prime run, then...

    MEP-805B Will not Start

    my .02, I had 'one of those' also, she needed a new plug going to the actuator, the rubber spacers had fallen out and wouldnt maintain contact. I think that is the jenny that M35A2-AZ has now. After the flywheel sensor is adjusted correctly, then look at the plug for the actuator.

    M1079 AC Cable to Genset

    I would pull the one out of the dist. box and cap the hole before I sold the cable knowing it was going to get cut. Yes I know if I sold it, it is none of my business what he does with it, but go find another one and see how long that takes without paying an arm and leg.

    M1079 AC Cable to Genset

    By the dimensions, its 100amp. If you clean the data plates up that are right below the connectors, it will tell you what they are. Should look something like this. I have 2 female to fit that I dont have an loose male plugs. The male plugs I have are on an extension cord that cost me a...

    M1079 AC Cable to Genset

    What is the amp rating? 200 amp is just a little bigger than 100 amp. I have something that will connect, but need to know what size. Edit. 200 amp connector is larger than the 100

    MEP-805B Oil in coolant

    the 805b shows a 10# cap, the 804a shows a 7# and the 005a shows a 7#. I did not have to find a cap for the 805, but i did have to build a new gasket to go in it, the original had dry rotted, so i just cut a new one from an old inner tube. I dont see anything special about the cap, other than...
