    If Joe Biden can be voted into the highest office in the land, an Etch-A-Sketch website company can sell to the government. 2023, baby.

    New guy from NW Florida MEP002a questions

    I think this is a bad description... you might want to reach out to these folks: https://www.easternsurplus.net/PartDetails/10032/10-KW-Exhaust-Muffer-Generator-400HZ-MEP-813A Looks like the same Onan muffler for the 00X series, not an 813A.

    Mep002a batt guage issue

    Sorry I read it quick on my phone, I thought it was the battery gauge that was levelling back to zero.

    Mep002a batt guage issue

    Your gauge (and battery charging alternator) are working perfectly if it drops to zero. That means your batteries are charged and the system is maintained. If it was showing in the negative range, that means its discharging and running down your batteries

    Mep002a batt guage issue

    The 00x machines require periodic inspection of grounds for this very reason, which I am sure is why Ray mentioned it in a previous post. Glad you got it figured out.

    Mep002a batt guage issue

    Well you say the charging system works and reads 27V... where did you get that figure from?

    Mep002a batt guage issue

    Trace the circuit backwards, see where the voltage is changing. You have seen this gauge read correctly before, or this is a new machine to you? Is it hooked up correctly?

    MEP 802A Not Closing Circuit

    Have you removed and tested the diode? I would do this well before jumping it.

    Thoughts on WAGO connectors

    Spoons aren't rated to take a mans eye out either, but here we are in 2023.

    Thoughts on WAGO connectors

    They absolutely have a place in the toolbox.

    Thoughts on WAGO connectors

    WAGO makes a good connector. They are more convenient to me than wire nuts. Depending on the application though, I am more of a fan of those little heat shrink solder sleeve crimpless butt connectors. All you need is a good heat source (air gun, torch, etc) and you can have a properly soldered...
