Common problems
4- LOW OIL PRESSURE SHUTDOWN
Cause: Oil pressure is less than 20 psi (138 kPa), oil level is low, or oil pressure sender is damaged.
Fix: Check the level of the engine oil with the dipstick. Visually inspect the engine for oil leaks. If the oil level is good, restart the unit and verify the loss of oil pressure. Check the oil pressure sender on the engine block and the connecting wiring for damage. - LOW FUEL LEVEL SHUTDOWN
Cause: Fuel level is low, fuel tank has leaks, or fuel level sender is damaged.
Fix: Check the fuel level on the LCD window. Confirm the generator is sitting level to ensure an accurate reading. Check for leaks in the fuel tank. If the fuel level is good and no leaks are found, check the fuel level sender and the connecting wiring for damage. - LOW COOLANT LEVEL SHUTDOWN
Cause: Coolant level is low or there are leaks in coolant hoses, engine block, or water pump.
Fix: Allow the engine to cool. Check the coolant level in the radiator. Inspect coolant hoses, engine block and water pump for visible leaks. Check engine oil to verify no coolant has mixed with it. - HIGH COOLANT TEMPERATURE SHUTDOWN
Cause: Coolant temperature is 230°F (110°C) or more, overflow jug level is low, radiator shroud and ducting are blocked.
Fix: Check the coolant level in the overflow jug. Restart the engine and read the coolant temperature to verify High Coolant Temperature Shutdown. Allow the engine to cool. Add coolant to the overflow jug if it is low and then check the level of coolant in the radiator. Check the radiator shroud and ducting for blockage and remove any foreign matter.
