Checking The
Access Requirements:
• Roof Removal
• Muffler Box Removal
• Fuel Line From Regulator Removal
Related Fault Indications:
• Low Voltage ([ • • • ]) Three Blinks
Gain access to the capacitors as mentioned above.
• Isolate The Capacitors

NOTE: Use the manufacturer's instructions that
apply to the type of meter you are using. The rated
capacity is printed on the capacitors.
•. If a value discrepency is found:
• Replace Capacitor
Check Excitation Winding (DPE) Resistance between wires
that were disconnected from capacitors and lead into the
stator, as shown in figure 41.

•. If resistance reading is OK:
• Re-install/replace the capacitors
• Re-assemble the standby generator enclosure.
Checking The Stator Power Winding
Access Requirements:
• Roof Removal
• Muffler Box Removal

Gain access to the stator power winding leads as mentioned
above.
• Isolate the colored wires from the terminal block.
• Measure the resistance value of the stator power
winding as shown in figure 42.
•• If not:
• Check for short-to-ground.
•• If none: _- _Replace Stator 1
