plugs in good mounts good... when i try to put on my battery cable on it makes the generator hum and it may be turning ( not sure).. i just dab the cable on i don't leave it on there cause it sparks bad.... any advise.. anybody have this issue before. 195 for this solid state regulator

there was another thread on here not long ago where someone was discussing a generator acting as a motor. let me see if i can find it for you

*edit* here it is

Genny wants to be a motor

let me see if I got this

then you bought a new part and problems persist.

how do you know the genny was not charging after the wash ? did you put a volt meter to the batters ? how many volts are there ? is the wire good? did you check the three leads for continuity ? is there any short to grounds ? is the generator full of water ?

what is the state of your wiring harness ?

it is easier for us to help if we know your truck. have you thought about making a build thread in the builders blog section? post some pick and history of your truck. have it all in one place.

and remember kids its so easy its hard

well i have another truck and took the regulator from that one and it charges...then i put the solid state one on and it does not charge...

dead in the box sucks. did you talk to the seller?

yes he will do a return for me..

Hey Ya-All.
I've had good luck dealing with VPW in the past. Jen & Steve are good guys.
Hope you get your problem licked.
