In your pics it doesn't show the AC voltmeter. Can you take a picture of it with the set running? Be sure the AM-VM switch position is in the picture too.
Here's the wiring for the GFCI & Outlet. The item marked CB3 is the GFCI and J1 in the outlet.
The GFCI get's it's input power from Terminal Block TB5 terminals 5 & 6.

Grand Rising!! Thanks a million and here’s the picture of with the ac voltage on it
That’s a picture of it while it’s running

Humm.... looks like no voltage.
OK, it's making voltage with S1 in START. That's a promising sign.
Assuming the big fuse is good that generally indicates the AC Voltage Regulator has failed.
You should now perform the AC Voltage Regulator tests in the -24 TM and report back your finding for each measurement.

Big Fuse?? Ok and about to run the test will report back momentarily… Thanks again
Ooh yea it’s good I tested it. And I’m getting all kind of different readings from the reg test.. ok so i had power output for a little while. I turned it off and turn it right back on now no power again. Also while I have the top off I noticed a clicking noise when I open the ac interrupter switch!! Is that normal?
Could be corroded contacts in the P4/J4 connectors.
It's a small 4 pin round connector connected to the bottom of the "floor" under the control cube. It carries the Quad Winding power to the AC Voltage Regulator and power from the AC Voltage Regulator to the gen heads static exciter.

Well I got to look at the J5 wires again and look what I found.. I don’t know how I missed this!! Could this b the problem? Its pressed up against the metal plate down there.

write down the wire numbers and look where they go.
Very, very likely the cause of the intermittent power. Good job!
I am about to trace them down to she where there go and let you know. Can I just tape the wires up?

There are numbers written on each wire. Write them down then locate them in the wiring schematic rather than trying to trace 2 white wires amongst ALL white wires!

Tape is one way to fix it, but there are other ways that are better. They require a bit more work. However you fix it, when you are done, you need to make sure the wires do not rub on the metal again. You can wrap the wire harness at the point where it rests on the metal. I used to keep a bag of bicycle inner tube among my tools. I would cut a strip off, wrap it around the wire harness. Secure it with several wire ties and it should last longer that your life expectancy. THEN, you need to start looking for other places where the wire harness rubs on metal. Fix every place not, in the light, then at 02:00 on a rainy night.
