So checking out CB1 I have a open connection across V5 varistor. Any suggestions? Can I put a resistor there if not does someone know the value of V5 so I can order one? Thanks

It wasn't CB3 that was tripping it was CB1 the whole time.

Disconnect outlet still CB1 tripps. Disconnect gfci at TB5 terminal 4 & 6 still tripps.

I don't know. I run it and shut it down then next time i go to start its tripped and I reset and starts normally.

So after all the work I have done to this generator and I have it all buttoned up and ready for use the CB3 keeps tripping. It never did this before through the entire process. It's not a big deal because I reset it and it works fine I just want to know why. Any help is greatly appreciated...

Follow up. So I traced the wire 162A all the way back to the meter and it was corroded at the eyelet on the right side of the meter. Replaced the eyelet now I'm seeing correct amperage at the wire through the gauge. Tested it up to about .68 amps. The gauge was vibrating and is still a little...

Curious as to the reason they would be missing?

Ok thanks a bunch. Does internal jumpers mean I need to take it apart?

No M8 hasn't worked since I have owned it but I just got it up and running after fixing the chewed wires removing the tank to clean it and doing the fuse and MOV mod. I just recently got this machine.

Which switch and picture are you referring to with the jumpers? S6 ?

So I clipped 162B where I made the splice and checked it with it cut with bare wire. Weird thing is. 162B that goes back to 162A to the right post of M8 is open. Here is the weird part. When I check the cut side going to #44 of S8 to right terminal of M8 I get 120 ohms 🤔 and its not connected...

Should the continuity be the same through the diagram going both ways? What I mean is from both post of M8 through the system?

So I clipped one leg of my meter on to the CT2 on B2 and checked all the way around from B2 back through #7 at S6 down the line and have continuity all the way around. Mind you when I checked through M8 I checked the left post with the door open. The right post of M8 is wire 162A that turns into...

#43 on S8 is connected and continuity is good.

Thanks, do you have a shot of S6 without wires on it? I have checked continuity with everything except for one leg of switch to S6 #28. Can't see #28 for the wires. Also haven't checked resistance on R11. The screws that hold R11 in are insulated it seems so I need to check at wire connections...

Thanks kloppk. I thought so because I work with resistors on various things. On the diagram you sent me it shows it coming from M8 to S8 to 44 then to 43. I believe 43 is on top of S8 above 44 but 43 has nothing connected to it.

So first off thanks for all the help on my genset. My last post started as something else then wandered off when I found my M8 % load gauge isn't working. Several on here had some great suggestions for troubleshooting and provided some good diagrams. I'm currently looking for a good diagram of...

Ok no amperage in the two scenarios so I'll trace out the connections now.

Thanks a bunch. I'll let you know what I find. Thanks, Jason

Can you tell me how to check it? Do I look for AC amp current at the relay or at M8? Here is a pic of my meters. Thanks
