Symptoms & remedies

SymptomCauseRemedy
Generator Set does not startFault Warning or ShutdownCheck the fault warning and reset the controller if necessary
Engine fails to reach operating temperatureCooling system issueCheck coolant level, flush and clean cooling system if necessary
Generator produces insufficient powerAir filter cloggedClean or replace air filter
Gas fuel leaks can cause an explosion.Check the LPG vapor or natural gas fuel system for leakage by using a soap and water solution with the fuel system test pressurized to 6--8 ounces per square inch (10--14 inches water column). Do not use a soap solution containing either ammonia or chlorine because both prevent bubble formation. A successful test depends on the ability of the solution to bubble.
LPG liquid withdrawal fuel leaks can cause an explosion.Check the LPG liquid withdrawal fuel system for leakage by using a soap and water solution with the fuel system test pressurized to at least 90 psi (621 kPa). Do not use a soap solution containing either ammonia or chlorine because both prevent bubble formation. A successful test depends on the ability of the solution to bubble.
