      @@CountryRock2k1 The fact that the component is mounted on grommets indicates Honda thought it needed it for vibration isolation. If it has failed it could be due to many things but for it's price it ought to be as good as factory when replaced that should include all mounting hardware in my opinion which would include the bottom ones and the tie wrap. Like a water pump should always come with the correct gasket, the grommets might have cost $5 to include.

    @dennissytsma3561 3 года назад

    I'm a fan but what is the value of a inverter engine generator vs. a regular generator? In what application does the client need electrical power with such low distortion specs? Most all modern electronics can handle the amount of distortion from most any engine generator you buy without using a expensive inverter unless I am mistaken or missing something and I am ignorant why clients spend so much on inverter engine generators. I love the patience you demonstrate in your technical explanations and how you deal with your clients. I assume your skits screen plays come from the exchanges you have had in years past with dealing with joe and jane public hearing their many concerns and doing all you can to help them resolve their problems with their equipment and systems. Godspeed.

    This may be a good time to start learning electronic soldering skills and to troubleshoot electronic failures. Most likely, it's one or more of the capacitors that have failed. An ESR Meter can identify a failed capacitor. Also, look for bulging and leaking capacitors. Capacitors can store high voltage. Discharge the capacitors.

  • @Boobtube.
    @Boobtube. 3 года назад +1

    I cannot understand how a blown circuit board would make a engine hard to turn over. Not starting I can understand, but my brain can't wrap around how engine becomes hard to pull over just because there is a bad circuit board in it. Also, since this has a "5" on it, there has to be at least 4 others of these. So, I would suspect this might of came from a rental place. Someone somewhere had a Honda Generator like this one and the board blew. They found out what they cost and said screw that. So they rented one from a rental place, swapped the boards around and installed their bad board in the rental generator. {Taryl even said ty-raps were cut on top of board for the wires, so someone was in there before he was} So next time they go to rent out generator number 5 it does not start. They bring to Taryl and have to pay to replace a circuit board that someone else swapped around on them.

My thoughts were to get the inverter from Harbor Freight if it’s cheaper. I have ordered parts from Harbor Freight before and got them, took a while but I got them. Must have been on one of those slow boats from China.
