    Obscure question, MEP-831A

    It was about a year ago but the listing indicated may have indicated it was for an 831 or it listed the 831 starter number. I don't recall specifically.

    Dumb Question on Wiring Diagrams MEP 803a

    Correct, the diodes operate like check valves by only allowing current to flow in one direction thru them. For instance CR1 is there to protect the DC portion if the genset from being damaged should the batteries get hooked up backwards. Some of the other diodes are there to supress current...

    Is the VR card fairly easy to replace? Maybe a replacement card could be designed and made available if it's a fairly easy replacement.

    Obscure question, MEP-831A

    No need to pull the exhaust. Just unhook the wires going to it. Then remove the two bolts securing the starter to the engine and remove the starter. There is also relay K2 involved with the starter operation.

    MEP 805A Libby Voltage Reg. Retrofit

    Basically the operation is the Magnetic Pickup (MPU) sensor on the bell housing detects the engine RPM. The Electronic Governor Controller (A5) measures output signal from the MPU to determine the actual engine RPM. The Electronic Governor Controller then adjusts the signal it sends to the...

    MEP 805A Libby Voltage Reg. Retrofit

    To switch systems you have to relpace the regulator, T1 transformer, front panel voltage adjuster and resistor R16 on the back of the freq select switch.

    MEP 805A Libby Voltage Reg. Retrofit

    Might want to check the frequency with an external device such as a DMM that can measure frequency or a Kill-a-Watt meter. That way you'll know if it's engine RPM or a bad transducer.

    MEP 804 A under voltage Issue

    FU2 would be a 3 amp fuse. KTK-3 I believe. Replace the 20 amp one with a 3 amp or risk burning out the static exciter. If FU2 blew it may be a sign your AC Voltage Regulator is failing. Normally FU2 should not blow unless there is an issue.

    Don't start the set until you install the Fuse Mod. Once installed fire it up after needed prep is done and see if it produces power. If not check the Fuse mod Fuse. If good and no ACoutput then perform the AC Voltage Regulator tests and report back with results.
