Don't lose any sleep over it. My shop once troubleshot a non runner, (MEP-006A) for 14 days. Two great, sharp guys who were my ace mechanics. They came to me, and my NCOIC and I worked it for 3-4 days. I then got my truck, and drove to the owning unit, 300+ klicks. Found the two young...

Mac, You are completely right. The installed alternator has an internal RFI Cap in it. As soon as I saw the part number, it was clear to me, just put it on. That was an easy fix. Glad it worked out.

I do have contacts, and looked at a TM that is newer. BUT, its coded not for release to the public. Put the alt. on as is and start it.

The cap I wrote about is the Capacitor. If you look at the -24P, exploded picture of both types of alternators, there is no Capacitor on them. Part number 8MR3005CA, NSN 6115-01-459-1661 Part number 8EM3005CA, NSN 6115-01-459-1661 Part number 88-21154, NSN 6115-01-368-2911 Part number 110-489...

The alternator you ordered is not a standard alternator that the military uses. I have never seen one with a cap, mounted on the back side. I am going to believe you when you tell me its the right one, but where did you get this info?

Hey Ray! Good info. One of the reasons the alternator doesn't look the same as the book is because there is and old and new version of the alternator. But its not hard to test or check. And not all that hard to fix. Read the TM, and if that's not clear enough, someone like Ray can give you a...

You are assuming again. When you have power again, charge the battery's. The start the set. Measure what the alternator is putting out. If you have one or more bad battery's, they won't charge. You need to cover all the bases, before spending money. Edit: If it is the alternator, and you do buy...

From your first post, I would have told you to check battery voltage. You do not have enough battery voltage to turn the set over. So first, check the battery charging circuit fuse. Use a multimeter. Then change or charge the battery's. Once you get the battery's charged, you should be able to...
