Best source for MEP-804A/B parts

[Retiredwarhorses]

Other than the normal routes like google and eBay. Who has a supply of parts for this series Gen…I’m ISO of an AC Circuit interrupter toggle switch, appears to be a common switch across various MEP’s.
switch is an 8906K4519

A potential replacement candidate for the 8906K4519 S5 Interrupter switch is a Honeywell 2TL1-70. They are about $62 now.
They used to be $35 2 years ago....
The contact operation of the 2TL1-70 is slightly different than the 8906K4519 so some wires would go to different terminals.
I haven't tried it but it looks like it should work.

To use the 2TL1-70 the terminal mapping would be..
The diode would remain on terminals 2 & 5.

I think I might have one, untested, in my parts stash, out of an 802.

yes, I looked in the 802 manual and it was the same part number….I’m definitely a buyer, tested or untested.

I'll check the garage in the AM and get back to you.

Sorry I have two control panel assemblies, and it seems I have robbed this part off both already. @CallMeColt do you have a switch you might want to part with?

That switch is in every MEP-8** gen set, so dont just confine yourself to asking people with 802, 803 and 804 sets. When you tested the bad switch, did you take it compleatly out of the gen set, before testing it?

I probably do. OP, please reach out directly to me via the contact feature on my site. It sends me an e-mail directly to my business address. Things have been growing & I don't want to forget someone or that I said something. Between 4 kids, full time job, & starting my little business... gets hard to remember whom I said I would find a part for in a post or chat, so I route them to one place.
