MEP 803a failure
I wasn't very clear in my original post but I meant the Metal Oxide Varistor will protect the VR while the Fuse protects the generator head. From my understanding the Varistor clips the voltage spikes that can damage the diodes in the VR. I could very well be wrong though.- nextalcupfan

MEP 803a failure
If you have access to a bolt/ohm meter check and see if you have a direct short to the chassis from the load terminals (L1, L2, L3) Genset not running and no wires hooked to the output.- nextalcupfan

MEP 803a failure
If the stator itself is undamaged then he should just be able to replace the regulator with kloppk's. Granted right now we have no idea what's actually wrong with the set other than it won't make power.- nextalcupfan

MEP 803a failure
Did you have the Quad winding fuse and varistor mod on the unit? If you didn't maybe you just fried the voltage regulator and quad windings. A member on here makes a direct replacement VR that works with fried windings- nextalcupfan
