    Replacement Parts for MEP-002a

    I am having some issues with my Mep002a. I started it and it would run for about 20 minutes and dies each time. I bypassed the oil switch and that didn't solve the problem. I attempted to remove the temperature switch to inspect and clean it up and it broke off. So I jumped the wires and now the...

    MEP-002 Tripping DC Control Circuit Breaker

    I just re placed a defective VR on a MEP 0002A and now, with the new one, I am getting excessive voltage between 260 and 300vlt on a 120/220 setting. I was wondering what could have possible gone wrong. When I start the generator, before it is operating at 1800 rpm, I get 124vlt and then once it...

    MEP-003 Rectifier Board Burn

    Hi, I just replaced the bridge rectifier on my ME 002A and upon installing the new one, I noticed that the resistor on the bridge rectifier was starting to get really hot. So, I took off the battery terminal to cut off the DC power to the system. Later when I put the terminal back up, I did not...

    MEP-003 Rectifier Board Burn

    Where is (S7) located? I have looked for it and I cannot find it. I can see it on the schematics but I have hunted for it to no avail. Also, the starter has been stocking and sometimes it takes a little knock with a wrench to get it to work---could that related to the problem?

    MEP-003 Rectifier Board Burn

    I have replaced the components of the bridge rectifier and the resistor got really hot within seconds, again. When I first re-installed the part, I got voltage and rpm but when I noticed the resistor getting hot, I turned the unit off. Upon restarting it, I got no voltage. I wonder what is...

    MEP-003 Rectifier Board Burn

    I rebuild the board with new diodes and 20 W 56 OHM resistor and I got voltage and RPM, but the resistor started burning again. I turned the generator off and turned it back on with no out put. I am assuming that the bridge rectifier is fried again. I am not sure what is causing this. Any input...
