    Mep806b challenges

    Did you remove the governor before? By looking at the pic, the top left nut is missing. Maybe someone fooled with it before or swapped the governor. Is this unit new to you, have you ever seen it run right?

    Do not go over 3vac. You might slip up and ground off the tip. Leave it at 3vac and troubleshoot the next issue. Check the connections to the governor. Contact cleaner is your friend. Make sure you pull the fuse before you spray everything down. Do you have access to the canon plugs behind the...

    Disregard the manual. Adjust from 2.3vac to 3vac. 3vac is best. Go slowly using the dead crank cause if you get it too close it will shave of the magnet and ruin the mag pickup. Once you get that done the speed sensor on the govr will light up.

    MEP-805B Software crashed

    Howdy. Check your batteries first. Anything less than 24v will cause issues with the cim.

    Mep 804a overspeed issues

    So i checked the mpu, took it off and reinstalled at 30vac. The unit cranks right up. Someone had previously checked the contactor and the transformer wires since they were marked and the transformer wires were spun ugly. I redid them just like the factory and made sure they all had 3 turns and...

    Mep 804a overspeed issues

The moment i hit the contactor close i sense a small draw in power but nothing is connected. If i then open the contactor i get...
