MEP 831a No Power To Main Bus

When you have time and you've charged you batteries please do the following test.

Leaving S1 in the STOP position lift the actuator off the magnet. Press the compression relief lever. Pull start the set. Measure the AC voltage across the A & B terminals on the Governor Controller.
Shut the set down by moving the actuator back to the magnet.

This is a pinch. I need to charge my batteries. I also want to fix it properly. This engine does not have a pull start rope.

For now install the jumper knowing the risk.
Use the electric start and close the contactor so you can charge your battery bank for now.
We can address another way to do the test later.

Thanks so much for the work around. Machine is running smoothly and rock steady under load. It is a joy to watch the state of charge on my monitor. This is the same motor as machine we've used for four years, but it's never run this smoothly. I can tell by the sound that it's running at a lower speed than before, but the output is higher. I can read that on my inverter monitor. I am much in your debt.

Glad to help you out!
