Hi, was just wondering if anyone out there knows the make of the Wasp Generator and if anyone still sells brushes etc for them.  Thanks Josh

Thanks Geoff. I knew the alternators were Hitachi but wasnt sure about the generator.  The Auto electrician didnt have a clue about the make but found one of the brushes had jammed so hopefully that will be the problem.  Wouldnt mind keeping a set of brushes spare too  The make should also help things as well  Josh

Josh,
If your current Auto Elect doesn't have them, try another, brushes are normally an easy fix.

Josh, I would also make a comment but that would be pointless from someone who knows nothing about electricals so I wont.  But you knew that already. And yes the shop is not busy today.

One of the brushes were seriously jammed and the terminal from the brush holder was nearly broken off, The insides were on the rusty side  On the plus side the rest wasnt too bad and with some playing around and cleaning is now working Again Still wouldnt mind confirming the make of the generator Josh
