UPDATE: Finally got the Atlas Copco QAS38 YDS TNV USA generator running. Had to replace the AVR (UVR6-F). Manually re-zeroed all control panel meters to confirm accuracy as compared to an external multimeter. Set engine speed to provide 60Hz. Control panel frequency meter and multimeter...

Thanks for the tip.

Got the generator running. The yellow/green cable is attached to the engine block at the moment, but I don't think it should be. That cable should go to "earth". When I let the generator run longer than about 30 seconds, the engine shuts down and the L4 indicator come on. That is an...

Finally got back to working on this Atlas Copco generator. (Had some minor surgeries to deal with.) All of the documentation I have leads one to believe that the system is a 12V system. Nothing in the schematics indicate how the batteries are connected. Well today, I determined that the system...

Changed to an S3. Checked 4 glow plugs. All read in excess of 20 ohms. All 8 are currently loosened, but I need to retrieve my puller before proceeding. Thanks to all for the tips. Also, battery voltage is around 26V.

My bad. I was using old terminology. Box is of the "smart" generation. I will test plugs and try a different box. I, too, thought 15-20 seconds was too long.

M1097R1 with 6.5L engine won't start. I had it running a couple of months ago, but cooler weather seems to affect it. I say that because I only started having trouble starting this truck beginning in late November - early December. It has a new GPC, new glow plugs, and what appears to be a...

Still looking for these manuals......

Looking for TMs for the 31' Patrol Boat, River Mark 1. I'm wanting to power up the navigational lights on the boat on display in a local museum. Specifically need wiring schematics. Thanks for any tips.

I have a couple of new ones. I just hated to throw the bad one out, if there's someone out there who repairs them.

I think I have one that I can make a scanned copy of. I'll check and let you know.

Thanks again. I ask about the yellow/green cable because it wasn't connected to anything, and it's still not. I didn't just want to randomly "ground" it somewhere. There is a "Ground" lug (labeled as such) on the generator frame (not the trailer frame), but the cable is not long enough to...

My responses in blue below (we're running out of colors) First question: Does the unit crank when it comes out of preheat? Nope, the process doesn't get past the glow plug pre-heat cycle. Answers: This is the only DIP Switch settings you should use as in Paragraph 2.7. Check - they were set...
