Cummins Onan 5500 Generator stator rotor issues
มุมมอง 13K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Had a stator burn out in this unit and need to install a new one. Found there to be allot of issues trying to find one for this year of generator. The reason being is they no longer sell the stator and rotor separate it comes as a matched set. As well when you get the matched set the stator and rotor are shorter so now the bolts that hold the brush cap on are to long that was another issue that...

  • @craigb9417
    @craigb9417 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have an 8535-IV DCLP. When thermostat cycles it onn the fan is not starting. There's a buzz/clicking sound and then everything quits with a Fault Code indicatin "limit switch or airflow problems". Checked the sail switch with the VoM & it's good. Haven't tested the limit switch yet, but from your videos, I'm gathering that if the fan isn't running, it hasn't proceeded to the point where the limit switch would yet be a factor. Is that correct? What else should I be checking?

    • @thecanadianrvrepairguy3062
      @thecanadianrvrepairguy3062 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Still check the limit switch, but it sounds from your description that it might be the relay one the board giving up.

    • @craigb9417
      @craigb9417 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks. I finally got back to working on the furnace and first tried to start it again. The fan did not start. When I checked the circuit board for the fault code, it was a continuous, slow blink. I can't find that described anywhere. Do you know what it indicates? I turned off the thermostat and the relay at the furnace. When turned back on, the flashing started immediately.

    Thanks for the video. I have been working through diagnosis. This video has proven pretty helpful, but I am still stuck with a furnace that won't turn on. It was working fine, and then the next day, just wouldn't get going at all-no attempt to fire up, bow, click. Nothing. Seem to have power at the thermostat and tested the switch, after resetting it and it won't go. I am getting a new sail switch, but the one that's in there, seem to be flapped open and away from the tripping device, so I don't know if that is my problem? I am also getting no light on the circuit board. Any insight on how to proceed or potential confounding aspects would be appreciated.

    This is actually the best video on Atwood furnaces on youtube. You basically told me that if the gas is turning on but I do not hear the igniter working, then it is a problem with the igniter itself. So I assume that an igniter can actually go bad.
