Onan engine help

Recommended Posts

A friend has two aged Wheelhorses ,  one with an Onan engine with a charging regulator rectifier of a type that I’ve not seen before. Instead of the usual three separate terminals - one for each end of the stator winding and the centre one for the output to the battery, it has the centre one bonded to one of the outers.

Can anyone explain this. ?

Not having much joy with attaching an image. Says that I’ve used up all my attachment space but don’t seem to be able to clear any off.

That is how most of the regulators are wired but most are done inside the regulator. Wheel Horse did do it for a while around 1982 and identified as a 2-wire regulator.

Choose this option.

From the list that comes up, check the boxes on the right for the images you want to delete, then click on the “trash can” image at the bottom of the page.
