Generator not sending power inside. PLEASE HELP!!

[THE-RV-MAN]

I did everything. Cleaned Slip rings! Bought a new Voltage Regulator! Checked all fuses and wires! Spark plugs are good. I even changed the end connector for shore power. I'm confused. Anything else I can do?

Did you do the tests in this manual?

Yes I did. But still nothing.

Now check this out. I took the RV down the shore. Just for fun I asked my wife to turn on the genny and the microwave light went on (the time). But the microwave didn't work when we tried to run it. We cleaned the slip rings I Guess that helped a little.

Give me the P/N of the regulator. Maybe I can look it up.

I went through 3 Flight Systems voltage regulators, on a customers MH, before I finally give up and spent the bucks for a real Cummins/Onan regulator that worked correctly. They was always willing to replace the faulty regulator but the waste of my time took all the profit out of the job. I'll not deal with them again.

So you are saying it mite not be any good?

Was it working before you cleaned everything?

Yes! I de-winterized and turned on the genny and it didn't work.

It may be running but it isn't running perfect because it is only putting out half voltage.

You need to go back into gen
Check brushes, slip rings, exciter voltage, speed and voltage regulator

Either exciter voltage is low, voltage regulator is not controlling or gen speed is low

[Mandalay_Parr]

Normally a voltage regulator controls the field current.

[Mandalay_Parr]

If the field current is not high enough, low voltage will result.
Don't know all what you did but maybe the field is wired wrong.
Is the field current supplied through the slip rings?
Are the slip ring brushes seated good?

Is the generator running at the correct speed?

60vac, will NOT run anything
you have power, BUT not enough power
