KOHLER VOLTAGE REGULATER

[SMITTY 23]

Anyone know the part # for the regulator on a K241 with starter generator?

I looked up K241-46333 here

http://www.partstree.com/parts/

and the 4th starter/generator page shows voltage regulator # 275746-S which has been discontinued by Kohler. What are your engine numbers?

k241-46330 uses the same 275746-S regulator.

 

Here is an old Kohler manual that covers the starter/generator

 

This Stens dealer is in Ontario Canada but I like their site

Take a look at 435-040

If you are interested in a possible temporary fix, remove the (+) battery cable from the battery and then remove the cover of the regulator. . You may find one set of relay contacts stuck or welded together. From your symptoms, I suspect the cutout relay contacts are welded together.

 

You can GENTLY pry apart the contacts and use 400 - 1000 grit wet / dry sandpaper to polish the pitted contacts. Again, this will be a temporary fix as the tungsten coating is probably vaporized off the contacts, allowing them to stick together.
