Table 5-1Troubleshooting Guide Continued

Problem

Possible Cause

Remedy

 

 

 

Genset will not pull load

Incorrect Engine Speed

Remove electrical load, output should be 61−62 Hertz adjust engine

 

 

speed if necessary.

 

Load not connected properly

Verify voltage at the load and the connections to the proper

 

 

receptacle or load terminal block.

 

Load too large for unit

Verify load amperage is less than the generator set rated.

 

 

Note: For inductive loads, use the starting amperage rating of the

 

 

load (not the running amperage rating). Starting amps may be as

 

 

much as 5 times the running amps.

 

 

 

Electrical shock when frame is

Static charge.

Ground generator frame at local reference ground (see Section 3).

touched

Grounded armature or field coil.

Contact service center.

 

 

 

Mechanical noise (alternator)

Defective bearing

Replace bearing.

 

Rotor rubbing on stator

Bad bearing − replace.

 

 

Bent shaft − contact service center.

 

 

Loose end bell − tighten;

 

 

Loose drive Discs − tighten

 

Loose or misaligned coupling

Tighten; align coupling and alternator shaft to engine shaft.

 

 

 

Trailer lights inoperable

Trailer to tow vehicle connection

Connect trailer lighting connector to tow vehicle trailering connector

 

Trailer electrical connection not compatible

Use adapter plug to convert from connector style found on trailer to

 

 

connector style found on tow vehicle or replace connector with com-

 

 

patible mate

 

Insufficient Ground connection

Verify there is a ground wire connection from the tow vehicle to the

 

 

trailer. Do not rely on the trailer tow coupling for the battery ground

 

 

connection. Repair as necessary.

 

Faulty light bulb

Replace as necessary

 

 

 

Trailer sways during towing

Tow vehicle trailering ratings too small

Check tow vehicle ratings meet or exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight

 

 

Rating (GVWR) of the trailer. Use larger tow vehicle as necessary.

 

 

Seek expert advise.

 

Trailer tongue not level on tow vehicle

Adjust trailer or tow vehicle as necessary for trailer tong to be level

 

 

or slightly higher than rear of tow vehicle when additional supports

 

 

have been removed. View and make adjustments while vehicle and

 

 

trailer are on level surface. Seek expert advise.

 

Towing at excessive speed

Reduce tow vehicle speed and use caution while braking. Obey all

 

 

local laws and regulations, never exceed the posted speed limit,

 

 

and use reasonable care when towing any type of trailer.

 

 

Contact local authority having jurisdiction.

 

 

 

Note: After the engine is stopped, there is a 15 second restart delay before engine cranking.

Fault Shutdowns Under certain operating conditions, onboard sensors determine that a condition may cause damage if operation continues. The onboard controller is programmed to sound an alarm or immediately stop (shutdown) the generator. These conditions are as follows:

1.An alarm fault is indicated by an alarm light located on the operator panel:

a.Overspeed − indicates the engine governor allowed speed to exceed safe limits.

b.Overcrank − indicates engine failed to start within programmed time period.

c.Low Oil Pressure − Safe engine operating oil pressure was not maintained.

d.Overtemperature − indicates safe operating coolant temperature was exceeded.

2.Engine cannot be restarted until the alarm condition is corrected.

3.Reset the alarm condition (after alarm condition is corrected) by pressing “Reset”. Operation can be attempted, observe the operator panel when operation is resumed to ensure alarm condition is removed.

Overload When maximum current output exceeds the output breaker limit, the main breaker will trip. When this occurs, the load must be reduced and the breaker reset before operation can be resumed.

Note: The Main Breaker cannot be reset if load connection box door is open. This door must be closed before the breaker can be reset to connect the electrical load.

Service & Parts Service and parts for your generator can be obtained from an authorized service center. Please have the following information available prior to contacting the service center:

The model number and serial number of the generator set.

A complete and accurate description of the part (part number if known).

Note: Engine parts can usually be obtained from a local distributor by using the information in the engine manufacturer’s owner’s manual.
