    MEP-002A are all Control cubicles interchangeable?

    Problem solved!:beer: the replacement CVT has fixed the problem. So, to recap, the machine with a Libby AC box would not put out power unless I hold the start switch indefinitely, but it would work normally with a JR.H AC box. The CVT had an open in the windings at H5-H6. Replacing the CVT has...

    MEP-002A are all Control cubicles interchangeable?

    Well, back to fixing this -002A... After a couple failed attempts to score a parts machine at a reasonable price from GL, Craig A Tull hooked me up with a replacement CVT. I got it installed in my AC connection box today. It wasn't too bad to swap out, the hardest part is the heavy wire going to...

    MEP-002A are all Control cubicles interchangeable?

    Well, no time to work on it this weekend, but I brought it (the AC box) to work with me this morning and I think I see the problem... Bridge rectifier checked out fine. 1.86M on each diode in 1 direction and opecircuit in the other direction. 55 ohms on the resistor. BUT... the CVT1 readsings...

    MEP-002A are all Control cubicles interchangeable?

Plus the schematics and test procedures I printed out of the TM should get me started on a more detailed analysis of the problem. Al I need now if a...

    MEP-002A are all Control cubicles interchangeable?

    That's what I figured, I wouldn't expect any operational differences between the two. Now that I try to retrace my steps I think originally I did put the JR.H VR into the questionable generator's Libby cubicle and it did not work. It just seems very strange that the JR.H cubicle as a whole works...

    MEP-002A are all Control cubicles interchangeable?

    So last night I did a little more testing and found that when I swap the cubicles back to their original generators, the Libby unit once again will not produce power unless you hold the start switch indefinitely. Next I tried another known good Libby control cube on the suspect Libby generator...

    MEP-002A are all Control cubicles interchangeable?

    Hello everyone, I'm brand new to posting here, although I've been reading articles and learning a lot for a few months. So cut me some slack if I mess anything up due to my inexperience! Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knows of any interchangeability problems between Libby Corp. and J.R...
