Mep-003 won't continue to produce power

In the first picture, what is the wire number on the wire that is shade tree extended?

Sporting a guess here, Its likely P59E16 for the starter burnout mod.

 

[Guyfang]

Thats my first guess too. But got to ask.

Here is the Starter Burnout Mod for reference:

Lets wait and hear it from the horses mouth.

looks like it came from 3 and goes to 12. thats how i bought it.

We need you to "verify the actual wire #" that is printed on the insulation of the white wire that was moved and extended.

P59e is what's on the wire

P59e is what's on the wire

Ok, at least the right wire was used. I would insulate the nut/screw with electrical tape or the liquid electrical tape black goo. With vibration over time, that bare screw/nut/terminal band-aid could eventually chafe other wires and cause a short.

 

[Angelo190471]

Yeah, thats going to be fixed.
He hasn't responded to my email yet. Does anyone know the testing procedure for his board?

 

[kloppk]

There is a VR test procedure in the TM.

 

[Angelo190471]

But this isn't the oem VR. Is it the same procedures?

 

[kloppk]

I believe the VR design is the same as the OEM one. Just repackaged using newer components and a different power transistor.
Check with TripleJim to verify though.

 

[Angelo190471]

I sent the VR to him to get tested. It tested fine. before removing it i tried disconnecting #17 on the vr. it would produce high voltage with the start switch released. going to test the cvt1 next

It was rectifier bridge assembly. Bought a new one from a vender here
