The M The M8 with load on it is not reading any load with the needle. I've had it up to 45 amps on one leg and M8 needle doesnt move. Thanks, Jason

So use my amprobe to measure amps and a MM to measure AC volts while I have a load on the generator?

Thanks. I noticed I was getting 5-9 volts from ground to each post on the gauge back. Don't know what that means but it sounds like it is sending something to it but the gauge isnt working. Is it worth troubleshooting or get a new one? I personally want to keep it all stock looking if possible...

Made the broke connection going to S8 #44 and it still don't work 😭 Checked continuity between gauge going to S8 and S6 and its good. Should I have 24v on one side of the gauge to ground? Thanks, Jason

Found it ! 162 B wire is chewed in half. Time to make a connection and see if it fixes it.

Yes I seen that it was. So your saying the other side goes up to #44 ? If it does the CT coil is blocking me seeing it. I will get a mirror today. Thanks Kloppk

Mine doesnt have a #44. Its all odd numbers like 45-47 on the S8 teminal.

The diagrams show one wire going to S8 to terminal #44 but there isn't a #44 on S8. Maybe I miss read the diagram 🤓

Thanks ! How should I go about troubleshooting the percentage load gauge. I've tapped on it and loosened the connections and retightened. I had to make about 20 new connections when I got this unit because a rat had been living inside and chewing. Everything is working except the % load gauge...

Got the 803 hooked up to the house for the last hour and have a few questions. First off my percentage load meter isn't working so I'll have to figure that out. I've trimmed my voltage and hertz. When I check amps across L1 and L3 I get 42amp on one leg and 36-38 on the other. Is this normal...

Yes back up use. I live on the gulf in hurricane alley so I'm very familiar with not sending power down the wrong way. Thanks, Jason

Yes sir I'm familiar with electicity but I'm not an expert hence the reason I'm asking. I wire stuff around the house all the time but again no expert. My swim lane is on the mechanical side. Thanks

I appreciate all y'all's help so far. I have my set up and running and I'm ready to hook it to the house. I just need to know what position my single phase selector should be and also how the wireing going out to my house should look like coming off the generator lugs. Thanks, Jason

Thanks

I'll be doing a load test soon before hooking up to my house. The question is which way is better or does it matter? Run one wire on a 120v leg out to 4 outlets and another wire on the other 120v leg to 4 outlets and use heaters and such or to hook up on the 220v and test it that way or does it...

Ok Thanks. Is it best to run two 120V circuits out with multiple plugs to put heaters on or test it on 220V with something or does it matter? Just want to test it before putting it on my house. Then I want to buy your board once it's proven so I can remotely monitor it. Thanks, Jason

Thanks Kloppk. Can you run it with just the fuse mod until the Veristor comes in or is it best to wait for both? Wanting to do a load test as soon as I can. Thanks so much, Jason

Does anyone have one they are willing to part with or a source for the beede fuel gauge. Mine still works but my buddy tapped on it a little to hard and cracked the glass. Maybe I could replace the glass from a glass company? Is that possible? Thanks, Jason

I just ordered a kit from you. If you could rush it that would be awesome. I don't mind paying for that. Thanks, Jason

Ok so that's the part that gets damaged and kills the generator section. So all I need is the 3 parts I ordered installed? Thanks Kloppk
