  • Hello, nice video, I have the same genny but mine is 8550/5550. My output voltage is too high. I should be getting 120 like you but I am getting 180 and at the 220 4 prong twist lock connector I'm getting 380. Would you be able to tell me what's wrong? Voltage regulator ?

  • @tapuout333 I don't work on these very often, but the first thing I would do is buy the repair manual and follow the flow chart. With the manual you can see the schematic and know what components your generator is using. Not all generators are the same. Hope that helps.

  • @tapuout333 sounds like it could be a voltage regulator. Check the Hz and make sure its set from 60-62 Hz. Once it is set to the proper Hz, check the voltage under a load. A 1500 watt space heater or hair dryer works fine as a load. I have seen that some voltage regulators are quirky without a load.
