John Deere 6090HF485 Engine Engine

• Winding failure.
  Fix: Check windings.
• Unstable voltage
  Cause: Speed variation in engine.
  Fix: Check regularity of rotation.
• Rotating bridge failure.
  Fix: Check diodes, disconnect cables.
• No residual voltage
  Fix: For an instant apply on the + and – terminals of the electronic regulator a 12 V battery voltage with a 30 Ω resistor in series respecting the polarities.
• Lower than rated voltage at load
  Cause: Voltage potentiometer out of setting.
  Fix: Reset voltage potentiometer.
• Low voltage at no load
  Cause: Voltage potentiometer out of setting.
  Fix: Reset voltage potentiometer.
• Intervention of protection.
  Fix: Check rpm.
• Intervention by protection.
  Cause: Current too high, power factor lower than 0.8; speed lower than 10% of rated speed.
  Fix: Failed regulator. Substitute regulator.
• Higher than rated voltage at load
  Cause: Voltage potentiometer out of setting.
  Fix: Reset voltage potentiometer.
• High voltage at no load
  Cause: Voltage potentiometer out of setting.
  Fix: Reset voltage potentiometer.
• Failed regulator.
  Fix: Substitute regulator.
• Checking voltmeter P4
  Fix: Put a voltmeter in parallel with voltmeter P4 on the control panel. Check that the read-out of both voltmeters is the same. Stop the generator and disconnect one terminal. Check that the internal resistance of the voltmeter is high.
• Checking ammeters P1, P2 and P3
  Fix: Measure by means of a clamp-on probe the outgoing current during the load. Compare the measured currents with the currents on the corresponding ammeters. Both readings should be the same.
• Alternator does not excite
  Cause: Blown fuse.
  Fix: Replace fuse.
