    MEP1040 and Remote start questions

    As far as I can tell that 7 pin CAN connector is not present on the standard AAMPS sets. The "Remote" connector on the DCS is a 14 pin connector and uses RS-485 for communication. I poked around and from what I could gather only 1060's and 1070's that were specially modified for use in a...

    MEP-831A no power

    That was quite a lights show! I expected that to happen. Good inverters are hard to find. I got two off ebay. Both duds. Shady seller. PM inbound

    MEP-804B Governor control issue

    I see the output voltage on the meter jittering and all over the place at times when the voltage and frequency goes whacky. There may be a AC Voltage Regulator issue.

    Any stateside source for Yanmar rubber grommet/isolators for MEP-831A?

    I bought a bag of 50 of the Electriduct grommets and have 46 leftover. If someone wants some (not all) shoot me a PM. - Kurt

    MEP-831A no power

    As I recall, the two middle pins are not fused and the 4 outer ones are.

    MEP-831A no power

    Yikes! Usually 1 or more of the 4 fuse(s) by the Molex connector blow first.

    MEP-831A no power

    My guess is the dual 3 phase rectifier assembly attached to the white connector failed sending the black soot up discoloring the main control board.

    WOT = Wide Open Throttle Inverter removal isn't too bad. 6 exterior bolts 2 left side bracket bolts Disconnect all wires and plugs Unbolt the two cable clamps from the inverter Remove "L" bracket under inverter Unbolt contactor and move to bottom Wriggle the inverter out

    MEP-831A no power

    Set is running Wide Open Throttle. It shouldn't be. The SLC100 Governor Controller (GC) is shot. One of the classic symptoms of a factory GC failure. Also not lifting off the magnet is a sign too. No LED ON in K15 indicates the inverter isn't making power. May be due to running WOT at...

    MEP-831A no power

    The fuse is on the input of the sets battery charger. If that popped the battery charger is probably toast. The set can run OK without it on the batteries until they wear down. Is the LED inside of K15 ON when running? If on it indicates the inverter is making power, at least L1 is, it powers...

    MEP802A overload tripping

    It could be that resistor R13 is bad or the contacts 13 14 in S8 aren't making good contact. The purpose is to put R13 in parallel with R12. This cuts the burden resistance from 7.5 ohms to 3.75 ohms. The CT's generate a current proportional to the load on the respective winding set. The CT's...
