@@tsl7881 agreed and yes Hot glue is not the best vibration protection. Neutral curing silicone is a much better option. I was able to fix the board as you see but unfortunately the generator had an internal flying short in its stator. This is maybe the worst board that I worked on All of the other boards that I've worked on in the past only had blown components but the circuit board itself was intact

@@chrisdunn1909 I don't think you can do that. 4 zones is well beyond the capability. I'd reach out to EWC, they are really helpful!

@@datageek9132 cooling output goes up I've noticed. Not stealing cooled air to blow over the condenser coils.

@@Brittanybluejeansbluejeans Even if the battery is charged the green light should come on momentarily but shut off if it is close to full charge. You may have a problem with the battery and or the charging circuit internally

@@mrzif0013 there is a tray at the bottom of the unit with a drain port. There isn't a lot of water in the tray during operation because the evaporator coil condensation drips onto the hot condenser coils which re evaporates it and is sent out the exhaust tube.

@@wkgurr Yes the intake for the condenser is on the rear and also the side. I suppose it would be possible to draw from a cooler room but you need to complete the loop so you do not create a vacuum negative pressure situation which is exactly why this mod was done. I've been running the unit like this for the past couple years with the second hose and no issues.

@@brendangriffin1791 compared to weather machines out there It's the better price than a Honda or Yamaha. They seem to be pretty decently built but they are also being used in a lot of food truck applications and that's a very tough environment in general.

@@HeavyFCCHeavyFCC-l9m 600V vs 1000V capable. eBay is where I found mine. They have gotten pricey since THD has been more of a thing with generator purchase and function.

@@thisgrilllife7447 thank you! Yeah just perusing the Facebook group forums for advice and information. Turned out great I think!

@@RahulKar-j7t yes

@@Rockstarrodeos If it's got the original spinning hard drive it is likely gotten corrupted and failed. That would be my guess. Extreme case scenario you might be missing voltages from the power supply and that's usually indicated by all of the clip lights being on steady. If the clip lights are not on and merely blink for a second it's not the power supply. And that scenario I would suggest changing out the hard drive for a working IDE.

@@abrajmek_zalilov ideally yes. It should work as it's right at the limit, but I'd change it

@@Bassguitarist1985 OK... The correct capacitors are ordered ;)

@@jwilli850 yes too high. Try putting 12 volts to brushes. If you get output voltage, PRB and possibly the SCB have failed. Both can be repaired

@@jwilli850 that I do yes. Email me and we can discuss. My sn at Yahoo dot com.

I'll put that as a video idea for the future! I actually just used it last week for our project so it is definitely still relevant to me. Thank you for commenting and watching the video!!

@@GordonBrown-u5v jump start/boost yes, charge up that's a no

@@jwilli850 what's your question? Still have the machine! Many still do actually

@@Bassguitarist1985 I have a Generac 7550 EXL and it stop making power. I installed a new battery and still nothing. My receptacle tester says open neutral and ground fault, on the meter it’s showing 30vac on the outlet

@@jwilli850 this is a bonded neutral generator. Something is up in the panel and/or stator. Will have to measure all the windings and double check the connections

@@Bassguitarist1985 where should I start. It’s all factory wiring, surprisingly sloppy. Is there a wiring diagram for it

@@jwilli850 yeah partstree or jacks small engines should have a diagram to check it out looking up the model/serial

@@KevinCampbell-o1t some parts but not all of them depends on what you need. The ones that are no longer available you will have to get them off of a junk parts machine

@@OutdoorOkie yup! Failed gasket due to an improperly torqued sump bolt...aka it was completely loose!

@@anthonywilliams5830 sounds like somebody started stripping it for parts or tried to get it running using the more basic mechanical governor. The stepper motors are known to go bad because of the plastic gears inside but they are replaceable.

@@Bassguitarist1985 thanks for the response. I wish they had left it alone. I do not want to put a $250 board in it to find out it has other major issues. I'm guessing it was the stepper motor that started the investigation, but I am at least the 3rd owner so I have not been able to find out. Thanks again!

@@anthonywilliams5830 yeah I owned this machine for a short time and then I sold it to a food truck guy who used it as a backup. This was before the predator generator was popular. Parts are very expensive for this machine. Not sure where you are located but if you are around Connecticut I can potentially take a look at it for you.

@@Bassguitarist1985 I appreciate the offer. I'm in Ohio. If I figure it out I will post a video and tag you. thanks!

@@mateoatienza8197 size specs are on Calines website. It should fit fine.

I suppose that can be done if you have the room for it. Give it a try and post a video about it for us!!

@@eduardoperales1392 see the link here. drive.google.com/file/d/16URTDYG4vBHZEGTt-PMJL8GmLNgcRqff/view?usp=drivesdk

Glad I could help! 😃

@@jennifersdramaticpaws you are very welcome!

@@Nopulu I like it for the aesthetic. Plus some older models you had no choice since the cover was part of the shield for the horseshoe pickup.

Thanks for sharing. My apologies on not showing that part. It's only a few Philips head screws that hold the cover on. How I drained it is the hard way, meaning I had to take a full tank and flip it upside down in the kitchen sink to drain it out. There's really no other way to do it.

@@billpalmer887 draining tank through carb will take forever. Use a vacuum pump suitable for gasoline for the tank, and drain the carb bowl. Stabilized fuel will not stop it from absorbing moisture from the air, only prevents phase separation between ethanol and gasoline. Water absorption is what destroys fuel.

Thank you for watching! Yeah so far it's been working great! My homemade setup is a little bulky but the air conditioner does its job more efficiently I think. Always spitting out good cold air

@@wayne7speaks have you done a cylinder leak down test?

@@Bassguitarist1985 No i dont know how

@@wayne7speaks best to bring it to a small engine tech. Hard to diagnose.

@@Bassguitarist1985 ok thanks

@@AM2PMReviews thank you so much for watching! I have a few other videos on this project as well. Keezer is still going strong

Yeah you have to bounce over the project files from the working partition over to the USB partition. It's a little cumbersome but it shouldn't be a problem. Let us know how you fair!

@@Bassguitarist1985 thanks for replying, I’m waiting on the usb cord in the mail, and I’ll let you know how it goes.. I still have like an hour 30 left, enough to record my loops and playback.. but I think this thing is cool and want use it to its fullest potential

@@caseynelson9861 Absolutely! and I misspoke, the D888 has no separate USB partition like the D3200 does. Once you get the USB cord, the mixer should look like a mounted hard drive with all the WAV files available in the song files. Easy.

Yes essentially that's exactly what I did! The parts still in there working great and I did get him the OEM replacement part from Harbor Freight. I'll be getting this machine back soon enough as his inverter unit failed over the summer. Extreme heat tends to age these components quickly.

@@Bassguitarist1985 use 20w 50w oil in summer and 10w 30w oil in winter

@@onlyusernameleft2 1.5A at 18VDC is 3A at 9V. Not all the outputs are 9V but I can assure you the wall adapter is more than adequate.

@@Bassguitarist1985 I'll defer to you on that. The extent of my knowledge of the electronic side of music gear ends at soldering pickups and pots on a guitar. Anything connected to a power source eludes me.

@@dmytro.shevtsov nope that's how it goes, it is not sequential. Plus there are more 100mA or less pedals out there when you consider many run simple EQ, OD, and distortions

Thanks for the info!

Radio already makes a speaker parallel series box. Even if I was somehow able to get the cost and parts down and charge less than what that product sells for the margins would be very low especially for a handmade box. sweetwater.com/store/detail/CabLink--radial-cablink-speaker-cabinet-merger

@@donniem9807 Sorry, I didn't record a lot of the rebuild process because it was a huge learning curve for me and it was taking so much time that I just took pictures along the way. If you check out my repair thread it has more details there than in this video.
