Here's an update on the 3010 Generator troubleshooting. I reported yesterday we felt the Generator was bad. Both my son and I were not totally comfortable with how the testing had gone so last evening we laid out a detailed plan using John T's trouble shooting guide he had given me earlier. 1. We were able to get the 3010 Generator to motor, both A to F terminals and A to gnd. We must have made a mistake in our connections yesterday. 2. So we followed John T's troubleshooting guide in great detail from beginning to end. 3. We are pretty confident now the issue is with the Regulator. Tomorrow I will order a new Regulator. 5. With the regulator out of the circuit we had the Generator producing 16 amps back to the battery as measured with a clamp-on ammeter my son has. I am hoping/confident when I put a new regulator on it will be good. Paul
