Honda EM1000F generator

[rogerthebodger]

My Honda EM1000F generator has stopped producing electrical power both AC and DC. I have checked all the CB's and wiring and no visible faults. The generator is a normal 3000 rpm single phase generator so no special electronics (inverter).

Does any one have a manual or circuit diagram or know where I can download one.

I found a diagram for an EM1600 but looks different to my EM1000

Bingo, got one for you Roger, drop me your Email address by P/M and i'll send it to you...

Hello Roger and Fishy, now in the year 2024 I am reading you, did you solve the problem with the em1000f generator, did you find the user manual or technical sheet, if you got the manual and keep it please share it with me, greetings

I have still not got my Honda working I purchased another bigger one

Fishy was last seen in 2019 do I don't think h posts anymore

I do have a wiring diagram somewhere but need to do an extensive search

This YouTube channel might be useful, I've watched a few of his videos and he's very good at explaining as he goes.

Loss of residual magnetism?

@CUKALON
can you spot the brand/model of the generator component? (not the engine!)
No idea what your device is, but there's inevitably a diesel (usually) motor mated to a generator.
Fe, on my Mase 8kW, motor is a yanmar 2GMF, and the 2pole generator (spinning at 3000rpm) is a Mecc Alte S.p.A MR2
if you figure out what yours is (should be a label riveted/glued on) you can search for that and see if it's indeed the exciter circuit, some capacitor, or whatever.

The above should be true if it's a bog standard, no fancy electronics device (and engine is running!)

cheers

Vas in my case its either faulty diodes or more likely Loss of residual magnetism and the normal fix is to "flash the generator. I have tried this in the past with no fix, so I clearly did not flash it correctly or there is something else wrong

My engine is clearly Honda petrol and used to run OK, but it's the alternator and this generator is not a newer inverter generator
