Title: PTS MH-10 controller replacement
Post by: CAPEHORN31 on December 11, 2013, 06:47:39 pm
Which controller is a good replacement for Power Tech PTS MH-10 (Kubota) .  The original unit is having problems so instead of trying to find a 17 year old model I am looking for a newer model that will be compatible with the generator.
Thanks,
Terry

Terry, I replaced mine about a year ago same one just new. I'll look tomorrow and see where I got it from, it was about half the price of Power Tech, but you have to program it yourself it comes with instructions. It's likely the same one mine was built in 1998

When mine went bad on our 98 u295 I ordered one from Dave M and got it real quick and it was cheaper than going through power tec. I was very pleased with it and works great

Terry, DynaGen ES52 is what your looking for, Sounds like Dave M is the guy. However unless it comes preset you need to follow the instructions that come with it (very easy). I did not set the glow plug timer and roasted the glow plugs.

Is the controller the same for my pt 10k three cylinder in my 97? 

A spare would be a good idea I would think.  How do I get one?

My 95 never had one. Always thought about adding one. Probably just replace the coach instead...

You can contact Dave M from here on the forum to get one and if your coach has the dyna gen system then it should work

Problem fixed!  I had a Power Tech repair technician from Destin Florida come out to my house and check out my generator start problem.  He found in 15 minutes that the oil pressure switch relay (Schrack 792h-1c-c1) was bad.  Replaced the relay and all is good again.  I am ordering a few spare relays to keep on hand.  I sure wish that I had called him months ago when this problem first started--oh well you live and learn.  Now I need to replace the generator fuel lines.
