    M1079 AC Cable to Genset

    Its on the boat, make sure and post up the photos once you get the jenny and trailer and truck all married up. Its a really good feeling when you get all your wheels in a row, and they are powered. But like everything, there comes a time to change. The truck is probably on the slow boat to...

    MEP-805B - no power to the ADC100 Electric Actuator

    mep 805b mpu diameter .75" 03 KW 18speed tranny mpu diameter .75" Plugs looked exactly the same as well, the KW mpu appeared shorter, but it does have a very beefy bracket that it mounts in.

    MEP-805B - no power to the ADC100 Electric Actuator

    VAC= volts AC my guess is the mpu was on its way out and the good mech skrewed it in to get the volts needed, and was too close and rubbed just a bit if the parts house looks at you funny, tell them an 03 kw eaton fuller 18918b,i am pretty sure thats the right size, Kw, not peterbilt, petes...

    MEP-805B - no power to the ADC100 Electric Actuator

    if it ends up that mpu is bad... its not an endall, those are an easier part to find. A big truck parts house will have them, they are used as speed sensors on the tranny. Just get the right diameter and thread pitch. There is nothing special about the mpu, it is a magnet that says, yes no yes...

    oh baby, that is almost as good as free cold beer that is brought to you by a topless pole dancer working to buy babyfood.

    MEP-805B - no power to the ADC100 Electric Actuator

    That should be the first step of any jenny trouble shooting..... coolant low? check the magnetic pickup... rod sticking thru block? check magnetic pickup

    MEP-805B reconfiguration

    Not knowing what the use of the genny will be, my question would be, are you sure you want 240v? that is, 240v per leg, 416v across 2 legs, not 120v per leg, 208v across 2 legs

    Well i learned something new today. the SCU is the same for the 400 and 50/60 hz motor, I guess that makes sense, its only controlling the motor, has nothing to do with the generation side

    Guy did a very detailed write up about how to use the parts manual (TM) and how to use the UOC (user on code?) I cannot find it but everyone needs to learn how to use that part of the manual. ok this is the crash course of UOC's, in the front of the manual it says LTX is 50/60hz and LTY is...

    Did you disconnect the batteries when you pulled the cubical off? have the batteries been disconnected since reinstalled and start attempts? another thread to read, doesnt apply to starting but does apply to the computer side of this genny...

    the speed control unit, thru the backplane. 1st guess would be connection between the scu and the backplane. 2nd, my uneducated cant put my hands on it guess is.... a pot took a crapola, because a 200lb gorilla with a skrew driver wearing green coveralls was dinkering where he shouldnt have...

    Did you exercise the rheostats? Up down to clean our any dust dirt rocks, i think I remember 5 on that box

    MEP-805B Will not Start

    Are any of the rheostats set to 0 on the speed control unit? Remember they only operate from 7oclock postion to about 4oclock. I would note where they are now, and attempt to adjust any and all. you checked ohms from p5 to mpu, did you check ohms form p5 to actuator? p5 o to red, p5 y to white

    Do you think he could have a loose connector on the back of the cubical? or the speed control unit not making good contact to the back plane, but the other stuff works on the speed control. If it were my ginger, I would take the cubical off, take the backplane out, remove and inspect the speed...

    what happens if you start it with the hot wire, then connect the original wire on the actuator? does it stay running? did you check the ohms on the actuator? says 7.8 ohms for 24v.

    MEP-805B Will not Start

    Manual also stated .. to troubleshoot, measure resistance across both wires, so yep, one is hot and one is not.... swings both ways so it doesnt matter which wire goes where.

    What did you do? replace the connectors on the actuator wires? or read thru the thread on my ginger jenny? or push the reset button after the switch is in the start run position?
