Narrative:
Rejected takeoff at approximately 70 KTS due to left generator light. Rejected takeoff did not engage. Taxied clear and completed left generator light off procedures. Left generator reset. Brake cooling chart showed no cooling required. Taxied back to runway, and after approximately 20 mins, cleared for another takeoff. Rejected takeoff again for left generator drive light at approximately 65 KTS. Rejected takeoff did engage, although speed did not increase above 85 KTS. Taxied clear and informed by another aircraft that right side brakes glowing red. Taxied to remote area and referred to brake cooling chart, which showed no cooling required. We called fire crew to inspect brakes, and allowed brakes to cool approximately 20 mins. Fire crew then said brakes appeared fine, and we attempted to taxi to gate. Approaching gate, informed by fire crew that tire on right side was going down. Stopped aircraft and deplaned passenger and crew on ramp.

Title: B767 INITIATED 2 LOW SPD REJECTED TKOFS. SECOND REJECT RESULTED IN AUTO BRAKE REJECTED TKOF. HOT BRAKES AND FUSE PLUG FAILURES IN TIRES RESULTED IN EVAC OF PAX.
Narrative: REJECTED TKOF AT APPROX 70 KTS DUE TO L GENERATOR LIGHT. REJECTED TKOF DID NOT ENGAGE. TAXIED CLR AND COMPLETED L GENERATOR LIGHT OFF PROCS. L GENERATOR RESET. BRAKE COOLING CHART SHOWED NO COOLING REQUIRED. TAXIED BACK TO RWY, AND AFTER APPROX 20 MINS, CLRED FOR ANOTHER TKOF. REJECTED TKOF AGAIN FOR L GENERATOR DRIVE LIGHT AT APPROX 65 KTS. REJECTED TKOF DID ENGAGE, ALTHOUGH SPD DID NOT INCREASE ABOVE 85 KTS. TAXIED CLR AND INFORMED BY ANOTHER ACFT THAT R SIDE BRAKES GLOWING RED. TAXIED TO REMOTE AREA AND REFERRED TO BRAKE COOLING CHART, WHICH SHOWED NO COOLING REQUIRED. WE CALLED FIRE CREW TO INSPECT BRAKES, AND ALLOWED BRAKES TO COOL APPROX 20 MINS. FIRE CREW THEN SAID BRAKES APPEARED FINE, AND WE ATTEMPTED TO TAXI TO GATE. APCHING GATE, INFORMED BY FIRE CREW THAT TIRE ON R SIDE WAS GOING DOWN. STOPPED ACFT AND DEPLANED PAX AND CREW ON RAMP.
