TM 5-6115-593-12TO 35C2-3-463-1Section XXII. MAINTENANCE OF INTERCONNECTINGELECTRICAL WIRING HARNESS4-57.GENERAL. This section contains informationon interconnecting wiring harnesses of the enginegenerator and chassis. The wiring harnesses provideelectrical interconnection between major assemblies ofthe generator set.4-58.TEST AND REPLACEMENT. Proceed asfollows:WARNINGSet MAINTENANCE LOCKOUT switch toLOCKOUT. Disconnect negative cablefrom batteries. Remove external powerby opening CB101 (120V RECEPTACLEBREAKER). Load terminals of generatorset circuit breaker (CB2) may still beenergized with bus voltage.a.Test. Perform continuity check, usingohmmeter between connecting points in thewiring harness. Check for short circuitsbetween connector pins of the samereceptacle or terminal board.b.Repair.(1) If a broken wire is accessible removesufficient insulation from each side of thebreak to allow a good connection of thebared ends by twisting them together.Solder the connection and wrap withelectrical tape.(2)If a wire is broken from a terminal lug,replace the lug. If a wire is brokenfrom a connector, resolder andreassemble.WARNINGUnder no condition leave the bareconnection exposed.(3) If a break in the wire is inaccessiblewithin the wiring harness, disconnectit at both ends and tape both ends.Lace a new lead of the same gaugeand insulation outside the harnessand connect it to the proper terminalsor pins. Properly tag both ends of allreplacement wires.Section XXIII. MAINTENANCE OF GENERATORAND RECONNECTION ASSEMBLY4-59.GENERAL. The generator (figure 4-36) is asynchronous, brushless device with an integral exciter.It is directly driven from the engine shaft through a disccoupling to provide line voltages at any load between noload and rated load. The reconnection assembly allowsreconnection of generator windings to give specifiedoutput voltage of 120/208 volts or 240/416 voltsoperation.4-60.RECONNECTION BOARD AND BUSS. (Seefigure 4-36.) Inspect for cracks, breaks, corrosion, andloose mounting. If replacement is required, refer to nexthigher level of maintenance.4-61.GENERATOR. Inspect for excessive heatduring normal operation, by checking for peeling paint,excessive noise, smoke, and abnormal odors. Refer tonext higher level of maintenance if overheating exists.4-62.BEARING. Inspect the generator bearing forsigns of wear by checking for excessive unusual noise,smoke, and abnormal odors. If replacement is required,refer to higher level maintenance.4-63.DRIVE PLATE ASSEMBLY. Inspect the driveplate assembly for distortion, excessive wear, and loosemounting. If replacement is required, refer to higherlevel maintenance.4-95
