| Symptom | Cause | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| GENERATOR SET CRANKS BUT DOES NOT START − NO FAULT CODE | Not holding start switch long enough to cause fault | 1. Check and record last fault code. 2. Crank generator set and hold switch until control stops cranking and displays fault code (approximately 30 seconds): troubleshoot fault code and reference last fault code recorded above if necessary. |
| GENERATOR SET RUNS BUT STOPS WHEN SWITCH IS RELEASED − NO FAULT CODE | Not holding start switch long enough to cause fault | 1. Check and record last fault code. 2. Start generator set and hold switch until control shuts down and displays fault code (approximately 30 seconds): troubleshoot fault code and reference last fault code recorded above if necessary. |
| NO AC POWER − GENERATOR SET RUNNING, STATUS LED ON STEADY OR FLASHING RAPIDLY | Circuit breakers tripped to OFF, due to short circuit or overloading. | 1. Reset or turn on generator set circuit breaker. 2. Reset or turn on circuit breaker in the distribution panel. 3. Reduce number of loads. 4. Have the circuits from the generator set and distribution panel verified by an authorized electrician. |
| NO RESPONSE − STATUS INDICATOR LIGHT DEAD | Low/No battery voltage, poor battery connection, faulty battery, open harness connection, faulty start/stop switch, faulty LED | 1. Try generator set Start Switch if the remote display Start Switch does not respond, and vice versa 2. Clean and tighten positive (+) and negative (−) battery cable connections at the battery. 3. Recharge or replace battery. Refer to the battery manufacturer’s recommendations. |
| STARTER ENGAGES − DISENGAGES | Cranking voltage dips below 6 VDC − Battery connections, battery, charging system, start/stop switches | 1. Clean and tighten positive (+) and negative (−) battery cable connections at the battery. 2. Recharge or replace battery. Refer to the battery manufacturer’s recommendations. 3. Have the battery charger serviced by an authorized Cummins Onan dealer. |
| STARTING BATTERY RUNS DOWN | Marginal battery connections, battery, charging system, excessive cranking | 1. Clean and tighten positive (+) and negative (−) battery cable connections at the battery. 2. Recharge or replace battery. Refer to the battery manufacturer’s recommendations. 3. Have battery charger serviced by an authorized Cummins location. |
