@jqc99 The MOV can't be put in a plain envelope. Envelopes get compressed as they go thru mail handling machines and the part could be crushed. I've tried sending parts in envelopes and they are sometimes crushed. So parts need to be sent in a package and thus package mailing rates.
I could...
Excellent it's making power!
The low frequency tells me the Governor Controller thinks the set is in 50 Hz mode.
I'll look at the TM tomorrow and see if I can come up with any suggestlions.
Those are good readings. They indicate the generator is flashing properly and the static exciter, rotating diodes and stator appear to be all operating properly.
I'd suggest double checking the connections to K5, M7 and K15. Most likely the error is the wire labeled M7-I is connected to...

Brett, for starters do the following.
1) With the set running measure the AC voltage at the convenience outlet while momentarily putting S1 in in the START position.
The voltage should be about 120 volts AC. What AC voltage do you measure?
2) With the set running measure the DC...
Correct
If it's started manually the Aux pump will turn on and off as it would without the Remote Start.
If started by the Remote Start then the fail-safe is active to prevent overfilling due to a bad float switch.
I had a starter on an 831 body twist just like that due to the starter cutout circuit not working. Starter got spun so fast the commuter flew apart and tore up the inside of the starter and twisting the starter body out of alignment.
Might be what happened to your starter too.
The stator resistances are really low. 0.3731 ohms to 0.5047 ohms per winding.
Any sort of poor contact due to corrosion, oxidation is going to cause your meter to display flakey readings. You need to make sure you have clean, solid connections from your meters probes to the stator leads.
Most...
When doing the resistance reading across 5 & GND and then 6 & GND both leads must be removed from the VR. Once removed then measure from lead 5 & GND and then lead 6 & GND.
When testing the stator output pairs all the leads should be removed from TB3 first.
