    I just want to thank everyone for helping me figure out the issue with my 1997 803a . I was honestly lost in the dark because this is all new to me. All testing points towards a faulty voltage regulator.

    I also realized if I switch from 208 to 240 the unit doesn't show hertz like it did when it was set I 3 phase. Hertz go to zero in single phase 240

    Started testing voltage regulator tested between 104c and 105 voltage comes out to 7.60 spec in book says it should be 8. I have the generator set in 3phase 60 hrtz and the the out lug is saying 26.2 volts

    Not yet been raining like crazy here. Been trying to read up on all these testing procedures. But definitely will. Borrowed my buddies ohms meter. I think someone swapped the vR out especially after seeing it was missing that surge protector. I'm getting anxious because I want to figure this...

    I have been working on my mep803a trying to figure out why it's not making power I noticed its missing that blue resistor if that's what it is. Where can I buy one?

    Does anyone know what these two wires are identified as? they are attached to the back of that aluminum terminal block. One was fully connected the bottom wire was broken barely making a good contact? I want to test the stator those wires are hooked to. But I can't identify what wires are...

    I'm really trying to learn this stuff through the TM's but in the picture with the broken wire what are they known as F 1 F2 every other wire on this generator is marked but these two.
