mjeff87 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Had the first ever problem with my house generator (Generac 20K, natural gas fed). Not actually a generator problem, but rather the ATS that's integrated into my panel (the generator came with the new panel as a package when it was installed 10 years ago). The ATS still works, but it's intermittent and I had it replaced for peace of mind. I kept the old one, and I'm thinking I (or someone) might just be able to replace the 12V motor in it that's the problem. Anyone have any thoughts on this, or is an electrical hobbyist that might want to work on replacing it for me for some $$$? I had a whole new ATS installed (about $400 between part cost and service calls ).....I'd like to try to fix the old one and keep it as a spare/backup in case I ever need it, if possible. It's the little black-cased motor in the pic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 seems straight forward enough. just gotta get some info on the motor so you know what to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjeff87 Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 I'm going to unscrew/pop the motor out tomorrow. It's all screwed together, which to me means it should be a serviceable part.....LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
