My gbt-502A tester doesn't work.

Some GBT models come fused, try replacing the fuse in the device (if it has one) and see if that works for you. also you may one to check yoru battery terminals any corrosion build up can block you connection between your battery and the tester. Use a tooth brush to clear the terminals. Hope that helps

I do not know how

To work it, all you do is to clip the gator to any metal suface on the car and start poking around on the electrical system. A light will come on when you touch a closed circut.

Hope this helps.

How do I put batteries in?

Yes the black cap comes off but a smooth knife edge or cell phone "spud" tool might be needed to pry it a little. Keep it coming straight off by not prying too much on one side, then it just pulls off. Batteries are held up in the black cap. I had to pull everything out since it got flooded and the rest of the guts came out by rappin it with the opening down onto a counter. There is a pad to make contact with the battery and a tiny round piezo buzzer and then the end of a very thin single sided circuit board slides out. Once I got a bit of that out I was able to grab it carefully with pliers and pull the rest out to clean and dry it. Mine had two LR44 batteries. I've had bad experience with cheap pill batteries (short battery life) through eBay, so you might do better to get name brand LR44's for a much longer battery life. How long do good name brand batteries last in this thing?

I need to wire up a baldor 3 phase motor 208-230/480 15hp and dont have the wiring diagram to know what wire is what or where to hook it to?

Hi Casey, I'm an electrician and can help you with this problem.First, a disclaimer. Without the catalog number of the motor you have, or a wiring diagram for it, no one can tell you how to wire this motor with any certainty. With that said...Nearly all single speed 3 phase motors have 9 leads (numbered 1 thru 9) and can be wired for either "high" or "low" voltage. Most of the time, high is 480 volts and low is 208/240 volts. Given that you posted the amperage as "41-38 / 19", I am 99% confident that 41 amps is at 208 volts, 38 amps is at 240 volts and 19 amps is 480 volts. Further below is the way to wire unless the motor manufacturer or name plate indicates differently. You will need to determine the voltage of the appliance this is going to be installed into. You should be able to find this on a name plate of the appliance - but it may provide a dual voltage spec here, too. If this is the case, you will need to *carefully* measure the voltage with a meter, or find out the voltage of the electric panel that feeds the appliance.Once you have learned the incoming voltage, you will connect the motor as such when L1, L2 and L3 are the line voltage supply wires and wires 1 thru 9 match the numbers on the nine wires from the motor.208/240 or "Low" volts: Motor leads 4, 5 & 6 connected together and wirenut. Motor leads 1 & 7 to L1 and wirenut.; Motor leads 2 & 8 to L2 and and wirenut and lastly, Motor leads 3 & 9 to L3 and wirenut.480 or "High" volts:Motor lead 1 to L1 and wirenut, Motor lead 2 to L2 and wirenut, Motor lead 3 to L3 and wirenut, Motor leads 4 to 7 and wirenut, Motor leads 5 to 8 and wirenut and lastly, Motor leads 6 to 9 and wirenut.The motor should be operated briefly or "jogged" to determine the direction the motor turns. If the motor rotation needs to be changed, simply swap any two "L" wires (swap L1 and L2, or L1 and L3, or L2 and L3). Test once more to verify rotation and when correct close the wiring compartment and complete the installation. Swapping the L wires will likely be much quicker and easier to do at the magnetic contactor instead of the the motor's wiring compartment. Either location is acceptable.You should try to obtain the name plate data for this motor - if at all possible to to make sure of the voltage and wiring method. I hope this helps & good luck!

Light blinks rapidly on both sides on some plugs and once on one side and multiple times on the other

There is no polarity-only active... Blinking means live wire. The further you get from active the slower it blinks....

I need a 125 amp GE load center cover the part

Your best bet would be to contact GE directly - or a nearby GE Wholesale Electric Supply distributor. GE, like all electrical panel manufacturers have made many variations of panels to comply with ever-changing code requirements. If it is very old, you may need to locate a used electrical part supplier - or change the entire panel.

No power in cig lighter

There is normally a 20Amp fuse that protects this unit. Check your fuse box for blown fuses. WARNING: If you remove power from the battery - then you may have to return to a seller to re-enable passwords to drive radios/cassettes etc; unless you have authentic manuals.
