    Fuel tank accessories for M934a2, duel tank setup

    I purchased a secondary tank for my truck. The sending unit is toast and all the other lines are cut. I also don't know specifically what parts I need to convert to dual tanks. Has anyone done this and know what parts I need to purchase? I found some parts but I am unsure so I am looking...

    ID Class C RV Insurance Suggestions

    I wasn't sure if the commercial insurance would work since it is registered as an RV already. I will give them a call though. Thanks.

    ID Class C RV Insurance Suggestions

    Looking to get my 1992 M934A2 insured as a Class C RV. I already have it registered with the state as a Class C RV but so far nobody wants to insure it. Anybody have suggestions on which insurance might cover it? BTW, I converted the cab/van portion to a walkthrough. Hence, Class C.

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Not showing the capacitor in the schematics is not necessarily Bad but it is an unknown and unknowns make it more difficult to troubleshoot an issue I (for those of us who do not normally work on these or similar items). It seems to have been installed during a reset at Letterkenny so they put...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    I am going to assume since you looked at the TM, and didn't mention seeing a capacitor, it doesn't show one? :) I rotated the new alternator housing 180 degrees as suggested, installed it as is (no capacitor), and it is charging the batteries and putting out 28volts. I don't think the old...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Hmmm, so maybe they started putting the capacitors in around 2010? The -24P I have is October 1996 version. It is the one I got off this site so I imagine everyone is using the same older TM. I wonder if there is a newer one that was made or had a posted change done around 2010. I'll have to...

    I will need to rotate the rear. It will fit as is but the regulator is upside down.

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Yes, the top part number is the alternator I ordered and received. It did not come with the capacitor which was the reason I was asking. I did not see it in the 24P either. Sooooo, I guess that means we don't know why Letterkenny put one on the original (to me) alternator. It seems the...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    That may be Guyfang. I simply used the alternator information that is/was installed in the generator to order the new one. The original alternator has the green over-spray paint they used on the tier two reset they did back in 2010. The regulator on the back has the same model and...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    I am not finding a cross reference for the capacitor that is on the alternator. Leese Neville shows capacitor part number as: 0844474C02S I called auto zone and napa and they do not show anything on the part number or name. Has anyone needed to purchase a replacement capacitor and/or do you...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    I tested the alternator. No go. It is dead. I ordered a new one. $127 including shipping, from the UK. The only thing it needs is the pulley and a capacitor. It is an exact match. I'll let you know how it goes when I get a chance to install and test it. Thank you for the help. I also...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Thanks. I live in a very rural area. No alternator shop is close unfortunately. Sometimes living rural, you gotta pay extra for what you want. I choose to live here anyway. LOL. Your help is appreciated.

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Yep, would have been right. I made the assumption it had to do with oil because it was low. Never thought about charging problems. BTW, it also blew my microwave during its last gasps. Coincidence? Maybe but it is a pretty big one. But between all the smoke alarms going off, the microwave...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Looks like there is a regulator on the back. I found one exact match. It is in Guam. Joy. I tried for replacement parts but my **** power keeps going out and I lose my links. Does anyone know a good place to purchase this? I can find the basic alternator LR220-24 but not with a regulator...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Ah, okay. Got it. For future people. TM 9-6115-642-10, page 0004-1, figure 1, #21. It is a regular glass tube fuze behind the control panel. NOT being a jerk, Zed254. You got me there. :) Thank you!! BTW, the fuse is good.

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Looking over the multi colored circuit diagram I downloaded from this forum, I don't see where the battery charging circuit fuse is located. Right now my mind is half burned out so I am probably just missing it. Pointers?

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    I just checked battery levels with multimeter. One is 8.9 and one is 7.8. Is it possible my alternator went out and the genset ran until the batteries could no longer support the draw any longer? Not sure if that is possible. ?? I checked the belt and it is in great shape. The engine was...

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Yes, fuel is a 3/4 tank. Checked via gauge and visual. I did a basic check of wires and fuzes. Didn't see anything loose, missing, burnt, or fuzes popped or burnt.

    mep 803a stopped on its own, wont turn over via main switch, has battery power

    Sorry for short, quick replies. I have been trying to do this via the TMs I have downloaded since I have been without power for most of the day and night. Power keeps going off and on now. NO internet with no local power.
