      That’s what I’m dealing with on my Champion generator. There’s a black and white wire and a black wire hardwired into the solenoid. The new solenoid I have only has three poles, positive, negative and a terminal. What is the black wire for? I don’t want to cut it without knowing it’s going to work.

    I truly appreciate this video. Thanks so much. I test my generators every month or so, I’ve got two electric start Westinghouse’s connected to trickle chargers and run on propane. Gene 1 perfect. Gene 2 no click no nothing. This is my issue for sure. I jumped the terminals and it cranked the engine. 9.99 plus shipping for the oem part through Westinghouse. I would have taken everything apart and replaced the whole starter. Thanks again.

    Ok I have a portable generator train 6500 .it sat in the shed for a year I didn’t drain the gas before I stored it .pulled it out to start and it wouldn’t start so my first thought was it needed a new carburetor .along with that as I was trying to start it I was holding in the starter button and everything just kind of quit working so I replaced the carburetor put a new solenoid on and new spark plug still won’t start .the push button still isn’t working either so I tried starting with screwdriver it turns over but still won’t start I’m confused to what is wrong with it and I also checked for spark and it has spark it’s not a strong spark but there is spark I drained gas and put new in as well .what are your thoughts?

    THIS IS HOW I FIXED MINE, IN THE CASE OF.... "I CAN'T START MY GENERATOR" It's has been two years since last time it was running, so I started by checking oil level full at gen dipstick (it won't start if low oil because of sensors) then I checked gasoline more than 1\4 tank in the RV (also safety sensors), sparkplug checked for good spark, also checked the manual reset circuit braker ( to be ON) at front motorhome engine compartment for 12v current to the generator to be able to start it, also cleaned the carburetor and even installed new one but same situation, then checked wires and found some has been chewed like gum by rats at the back of starting switch generator panel so I replaced them, at this time the generator started but stay running only by keep pushing the switch on all the time, so then finally I knew it was internal electrical problem from the engine itself, so I took the generator out from my RV to work in my garage, (I did this by myself with some tools and old Mayan tricks ) lol, it's really heavy for one person. I disassemble the unit at my garage and started by removing the cover, then the cooling fan or flywheel unit (it's 2 items in one) until finally I was at the gen rotor and brushes assembly area and this is what I found: one more wire chewed by filthy rats plus the stinky rat nest in the middle of the generator motor coil, I fixed the wire and sanded the commutator copper contacts where the brushes are sitting becouse they were real duty with old urine from the rats, and of course I got rid off the stinky nest, lol!!! Then I assembled everything back together and... bingo it's runing like a champion!!! For this project materials involved was about $60.00 including an aftermarket new carburetor and an harmonic balancer/steering wheel puller (available at any auto parts for $25.00) to pull the aluminum fan out and (flywheel). Just picture this: (Any gasoline engine run smooth if gasoline and DC current aren't interrupted) so following this important principle you'll always find the problem to be fixed. Also if you have a onan microlite 4000 like mine, don't run it for more than a minute without the cover because you'll cook the engine real fast, also keep the eye on the aluminium fan and your fingers after cranking it in case you missing one or two members...just kidding, lol!!! After testing the gen with the help of a gasoline container, a piece of hose and 12v battery, I did put the air cooling assembly back and the rest of components including the cover, then it was ready to be installed at my RV. Once the gen was installed back at my motorhome I started it to be tested for 120v electricity but not before flipping the AC circuit switch (on) at the gen starting control panel (sometimes hiding under or around the panel) to be able to transfer power to my RV GFCI main outlet and electric panel as well, my motorhome it's equipped with GFCI so I reset it and tested for green led light indicating power is ready at my main breakers panel, so I turned my main breaker (on) along the others ones but no power was present at my breaker main switch (faulty main braker) so I flipped it many times, sometimes you can make it work again, mine did work, lol!!! I'm happy because everything works now including the refrigerator for cold drinks and AC for this crazy summer, lol! Later I'll buy me a new main braker, for now this is a resurrected generator story that needed to be shared. If this can help eaven one person to save time and $$$ it'll make me more happy, thanks for reading!

    Hi again. I tried the new solenoid and it did not work. I did cross the old solenoid and it did start. tried the new one and found the only black and white wire was tied together with another white wire in a harness that went to the old solenoid Any suggestions would be grately app. I have a Generac GP7500e if that helps. Thanks

    • @KnightandSon
      @KnightandSon 2 роки тому

      Well shoot, I don't know what to tell ya. If the original solenoid will start it when you cross it but the new solenoid does not work, even when you cross it, then I would reccomend double checking the way you wired it. If that is correct then I'm afraid you might have a separate issue.

    Hey, to fix the "head wringer unit" try pulling the whole thing it up and out of the rest of the washer body(it's heavy). Then turn it upside down and if I remember correctly, twist the "tension reset lever". Flip it back over then twist the lever again and it should be tight. Then put it back into where you pulled it out. You won't need the straps anymore to keep it tight. What happens is when you put something too thick through the wringer rollers, it will pop, but sometimes it really pops, that's when you have to take it all the way out then flip it upside down to fix it..I hope that fixes it..Oh and to answer your question, as a boy I was playing with my Mom's wringer when she was at the store and I got my fingers from both hands caught in the rollers. Luckily a neighbor girl hear me screaming and she came over and popped the tension release bar and pulled my hands out. Luckily none of my fingers were broken..One last thing, adjust the rubber wheel on your water pump, so its closer to the pump, because when the pump is working right it will empty the tub in I believe 2-3 minutes. Maybe your impeller inside the pump is broken or there's threads wrapped around it, you could check that to.
