No electrical output on yamaha
On my 10 year old yamaha 3000 with boost I have no electrical output. What would cause that? Do they have something like a voltage regulator that goes bad? Anybody have any experience with a gennie of...

I also have a Yamaha 3000 iSE (no battery boost.) I've found it is a quality unit, but for parts, I've had to pay almost as much for shipping as the actual part. Things like the fuel "filter" for example. Service? Almost all places I talked to ship their units somewhere else, so it might be months before it comes back. I like Yamaha, but because of the parts/service issue, if I were to spend the premium dollars, I would go red next time.
Were I to do it again, if I'm not using a rig with a built in genset, I'd probably be considering a Honda EU6500iS which has the same noise rating as a 2000 watt Honda, except a slight increase in output capacity (5500 watts sustained.) The 6500 watt Honda is heavy, but my 3000 watt Yammy isn't a featherweight either.
So far, my Yamaha generator has performed flawlessly, and has about 1000 hours on it, so I'm hoping it keeps going.
