Looking for a MEP803a side panel door

[aredman]

Recently got a 803a and its missing a panel. If you are looking at the control panel, its the one on your right side. Thanks

You're missing the Starter / Alternator side door? If so, contact Light in the Dark, he fabricates brand new replacement doors, handles and all.

Yes get Light in the Darks door. I don't have one but I've used Light in the darks several times and they fit perfect!

Thanks for the feedback. Where are those doors located? Another question, anyone know what they are trying to do with these wires in output terminal area? Thanks

My items are in Massachusetts. Those wires are a modification added (that was removed upon this machines removal from its previous use). You can either trace it back and remove the wires (and rehook stock) or just keep them connected together and tucked up and out of the way.

I just actually installed one on a similar doorless 803 earlier today. Took a couple photos:

aredman,

When you stand in front of any gen set, the control panel is in front of you. That means the door you want is the right side door. Makes it easier when you are looking for parts. Lots of folks thing the control panels the back side.

And I must say, the new door is mighty fine looking! I could not see any difference between it and a original part. Fine.
