I sure could use some help, I'm stumped and fast running out of time.
I'm trying hard for my 47EL to make its first appearance at Wauseon. It's not cooperating.
I've gone through two relays, two coils, a battery & battery charger.
At this point it runs smoothly with all new, sealed acid battery, Tedd's coil & electronic relay. The generator is the suspect.
The Gen idiot light is not lighting, this is supposed to be the electronic relay that allows it to light.
It's a 6v system. The battery reads 6.7 and 5.9 when running.
When running, with the black probe on the negative side of battery and the red probe on the switch side of the generator with green wire removed, the tester fluctuates between 40. ~ 47..
Am I crazy or shouldn't it read 6. or slightly more ?
40. is crazy high, right? What would make a 32E 6v generator put out that much?
I've tested all the wiring & double checked routing, its all by the book.
The generator was rebuilt by a highly regarded person, who I think is now retired.
Thanks in advance for any info.
