| 29 | No Engine Stop. | Check Engine Start Timer setting. Check Engine Start Connections. Investigate why the Engine Control Switch was put in Manual. Contact your Dealer or Distributor for assistance. |
| 30 | ATS will not transfer to Emergency. | Check Engine Start connections, Generator output, and Engine Control Switch. Plug in Power Supply harness. Plug in Limit Switch harness. Check transfer to Emergency Timer setting. Contact your Dealer or Distributor for assistance. |
| 31 | ATS will not transfer to Normal. | Check Utility and Utility breakers. Plug in Power Supply harness. Plug in Limit Switch harness. Check retransfer to Normal Timer setting. Contact your Dealer or Distributor for assistance. |
| 8 | Low Water Temp LED | |
| 9 | High Engine Temp Pre-alarm LED |
| Symptom | Cause | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| Blown Fuse on Shorted leads when hooking up or overloaded circuits. | Replace fuse with 9 amp fuse | |
| Engine runs and then shuts down, OVERSPEED LED | Indicates engine has exceeded normal operating speed. Refer to governor adjust procedure. Contact your Dealer or Distributor for service. | |
| HI ENGINE TEMP LED. Engine shuts down | 1. Indicates engine has overheated (engine temperature has risen above 225°F/110°C) or coolant level is low (sets with coolant level sensor). Allow engine to cool down completely before proceeding with the following: a. Check coolant level and replenish if low. Look for possible coolant leakage points and repair if necessary. b. Check for obstructions to cooling airflow and correct as necessary. c. Check for a slipping fan belt and tighten if loose. d. Reset control and restart after locating and correcting problem. Contact your Dealer or Distributor if none of the above. | |
| LOW ENGINE TEMPERATURE LED. Set is in standby mode but not operating | 10. Indicates engine coolant heater is not operating or is not circulating coolant. Check for the following: | |
| LOW FUEL LED. Engine continues to run | 8. Indicates diesel fuel supply is running low. Check fuel supply and replenish as required. | |
| LOW FUEL LED. Engine shuts down and LOW OIL PRESSURE LED | 9. Indicates engine has run out of fuel. Check fuel level and replenish as required. See Engine Manual for fuel system priming procedure. | |
| LOW OIL PRESSURE LED. Engine shuts down | 4. Indicates engine oil pressure has dropped to 15 psi (97kPa). Check oil level, lines and filters. If the oil system is okay, but oil level is low, replenish. Reset control and restart. Contact your Dealer or Distributor if oil pressure is not in the range of 35 to 55 psi (21 to 379 kPa). | |
| Low Battery Voltage at Start | Check for voltage source. There should be no voltage present. | |
| Low Oil light lit | Low oil in crankcase. Oil pump failed. Defective pressure switch. | |
| Low Water Temp LED indicates that the coolant temperature has reached 50°F. | Possible problem with the jacket water heater. | |
| OVERCRANK LED. Engine stops cranking | A. Check for empty fuel tank, fuel leaks, or plugged fuel lines and correct as required. b. Check for dirty fuel filter and replace if necessary (See Maintenance section of Engine Manual). c. Check for dirty or plugged air filter and replace if necessary (See Maintenance section of Engine Manual). d. Refer to Step 4. e. Reset the control and restart after correcting the problem. Contact your Dealer or Distributor for service if none of the above. | |
| Overcrank light-lit | Lost signal on Mag Pickup Crank Disconnect Terminal or lost signal on Auxiliary Crank Disconnect terminal after unit started. | |
| Overspeed light lit | Lost governor control. Defective overspeed switch. | |
| PRE LOW OIL PRESSURE LED. Engine continues to operate | 3. Indicates engine oil pressure has dropped to 20 psi (138kPa). If generator is powering critical loads and cannot be shut down, wait until next shutdown period and then follow Step 4 procedure. If engine can be stopped, follow procedures in Step 4. | |
| PRE-HI ENGINE TEMP LED. Engine continues to operate | 1. Indicates engine has begun to overheat and engine temperature has risen approximately 215°F (105°C). If generator is powering non-critical and critical loads and cannot be shut down. a. Reduce load if possible by turning off non-critical loads. b. Check air inlets and outlets and remove any obstructions to airflow. c. Open doors or windows in generator area to increase ventilation. 2. If engine can be stopped, follow procedure i in Step 2. | |
| Terminal #5 Unused Terminal not connected to KASSEC Terminal #9, ground. | Connect Terminal #5 when in use or it may prevent unit from starting. | |
| UNIT KS Voltage on Terminal #2 while Unit does not start. | Check for voltage source. There should be no voltage present. | |
| UNIT NOT IN AUTO LED | 7. Indicates AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch is in the OFF position which will prevent automatic starting if an automatic transfer switch is used. Move the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to the AUTO position for automatic starting. | |
| UNIT WILL START THEN FAIL High Water Temperature light lit | Low water level in radiator. Thermostat closed. Broken fan belt. Restricted flow through radiator. Ambient temperature too high. Defective temperature switch. | |
| Unit Running but Starter does not disengage | Starter drive could be hanging up or the solenoid on starter is not disengaging. |
