    MEP-803A getting it to work,,,my first one!

    I'll run out to see if I can find that fuse just because I'm weird then I'll order your stuff we emailed about yesterday! If you're on instagram my name is the same there as here if you want to see some more of the genset!

    MEP-803A getting it to work,,,my first one!

    I have 3 275 gallon tanks I filled up when oil was negative 25 or so a barrel...they gave me a 0.89 per gallon delivered so I should be good for a while! I feel no guilt about it either since I have paid close to 4$ a gallon in the winter!!

    MEP-803A getting it to work,,,my first one!

    Thanks so much!! I did the 3 oclock with the voltage adjuster and held the start knob after it started and it did make 140 volts! so that's good right!! That makes me very happy that all I'll need is the new VR!!

    I'll play with the sender some day....not a huge priority since I'm hooking up 2 275 gallon tanks to it to run on so it should never run out!

    Will it show power being made if the VR fuse is blown? I removed it now but it is in the picture....I really think I may get the VR that the user Kurt has put together...from what I've learned the fuse blows because the VR goes bad...I want to try a fuse just to see if it'll make power at all...

    MEP-803a help finding the fuse for the FU1 Battery charging circuit for the alternato

    Thanks a bunch!! crazy that something so simple for a part can be such a pain to find...even the fuse is one of those have to buy 30 to get anyone local to order one...no one carries a 30 amp 125 volt fuse.

When I got my Blazer from them mine had one too....brake line was broken so no brakes...could be a warning for a yard guy to not go...

    MEP-531 runs perfect but doesn't make power

    I did get some checks done today, I found the breaker will stay shut with the engine not running which gave me more testing I could do...I found the CR2 Diode letting ohms through in both directions...which is not supposed to be! I'd bet that's why it won't stay closed with the engine...

    MEP-531 runs perfect but doesn't make power

    Hey all, I have a 531 that I have running great but won't let me turn on the power switch, it pops right back down and won't stay up, the GFCI buttons on the power outlet won't stay untripped as well...so it makes me think that I have some sort of short somewhere or the windings need a power...
