CodeMeaningCauseRemedy
F2Cranks but won't start — Blown fuse (F2)Blown fuse (F2)Replace fuse (F2) on control.
K2Cranks but won't start — Faulty crank ignition relay (K2)Faulty crank ignition relay (K2)Check voltage from relay terminal "4" to ground while cranking unit. Battery voltage should appear at this terminal. If not, check for voltage at relay terminals "1" and "2". If battery voltage is present at terminals 1 and 2, but not at 4, replace relay. If no voltage appears at terminals 1 and 2 on relay while cranking, check wiring between start solenoid (K1) and crank ignition relay (K2).

Symptoms & remedies

SymptomCauseRemedy
Fails to crankBad battery connectionClean and tighten all battery and cable connections.
Fails to crankLow batteryCheck specific gravity. Recharge or replace battery if necessary.
Fails to crankLow battery — reverse current diode (CR1) may be shorted or open causing a drain on the battery; R2 may be openCheck specific gravity. Recharge or replace battery if necessary.
Fails to crankFaulty start solenoid (K1)Check for battery voltage at K1 "I" terminal; push start switch, check start solenoid "S" terminal voltage to ground; when battery voltage at start solenoid "B" terminal is present, battery voltage should also appear at "S" terminal; if not, replace start solenoid.
Fails to crankFaulty start switchJumper switch (#3 terminal) to ground. If solenoid energizes, replace start switch.
Cranks slowlyBad battery connectionSee 1 above (FAILS TO CRANK): Clean and tighten all battery and cable connections.
Cranks slowlyLow batterySee 2 above (FAILS TO CRANK): Check specific gravity. Recharge or replace battery if necessary.
Cranks but won't startFaulty ignitionCheck to see if points open and close during cranking. If they do not open and close, adjust and set points. Plug and plug wires must be in good condition. Voltage at ignition coil negative terminal (-) must alternate from +12 volts to zero volts as points open and close during engine cranking.
Cranks but won't startInoperative chokeWith engine not running, check choke vane movement by pushing choke lever arm. Choke must be in closed position with cold engine, and must be free to move against bimetal spring. As engine warms up, bi-metal spring relaxes and allows choke vane to open fully. The lever will pulsate as engine warms up. See ADJUSTMENT section.
