Confirmed the fault is High Voltage (>150VAC) detected on AC input. I’ll order a new voltage regulator tomorrow. Thanks Pascal and Capt Ralph
I head back to the boat next weekend I'll confirm the fault, ac/dc high voltage, and triple check the Magnum settings.
Now you have me wondering about the "high voltage" fault. I assumed ac. I do not know the model of the Magnum Inverter/Charger off hand. I live...
The high voltage is AC The gen is operating right at 60Htz confirmed by tech. The idle is correct The Magnum unit is correctly programmed...
Thanks for the reply. By the time I'm aware of the fault, the output is within normal limits. It seems like an occasional voltage spike and then...
The boat is equipped with a Kohler 10EOZD unit supplying power to a Magnum Inverter/Charger. On two separate occasions, the inverter has thrown a...
