have one my self. i am an electrican in canada. can walk u threw all your questions. easy to maintain. [email protected]

What is the alarm display? And what is your generator brand? If possible to say detail it will be better. Here is diesel generator website: https://starlightgenerator.en.made-in-china.com/

Most of the time it is the AVR that has blown. Check out our videos on how to test them. We hold your AVR in stock and have a whole Help Center dedicated to helping people fix their Portable Generators. Check it out on our site. https://www.generatorguru.com/ Parts Spares for Generators and Small Engine Machinery

Here is an article about overspeed of diesel generator, hope it can help you: https://www.dieselgeneratortech.com/diesel-generators/The-cause-of-overspeed-in-a-diesel-generator.html

Usually takes a quart of sae30.

Beware of an adjustment complexity with an new kind of poweroutlet automatic voltage regulator avr , have you measured the generator UNLOADED for 230 volts ? because it can be normal that 67 volts output changed when you connect an paint heat gun i was surprised a few weeks ago that i get an GENMAC 8000 that is a look a like generator coming from china build . first i was measuring some of the same output AC instead of 230volts.

I believe you mean the fuel pump. They do fail and leak, so likely you need a replacement. Make note of where the 3 lines connect (inlet, outlet, impulse air) Also check for fuel in the crankcase (oil) and drain and replace if necessary.

You will need to change jets. You may find that no one will seel it to as you are licensed.

RPM Sensor Loss 1501 ALARM This RPM alarm is set when a 2 cylinder unit was already running and stalled or lost the RPM signal from the ignition coils. Possible causes could be a fuel issue, the LP tank is empty, 1 or both ignition coils are damaged, or the unit was overloaded quick enough that the engine stalled and set the alarm. Possibly a fuel flow issue. Try running without load for awhile, if it faults with no load then either an ignition module or control board or fuel. If it only faults with significant load, then more likely a fuel flow or engine is stalling from sudden increase in load.

If you have some fundamental electrical training/experience. Undervoltage 1902 ALARM Fault is displayed when both zero crosses are missing from the controller's input for 1.5 seconds or more. Could be a faulty excitation winding, zero cross circuit, loose wiring, or field boost hardware problem. Same applies here, v1.12 or later firmware should be installed.

Check for water in fuel or drain fuel tank and carburetor fuel bowl and refill with fresh fuel. Check spark plug gap.

Which model is the generator?

By "gas" I assume you mean gasoline? Overcrank means too many starter revolutions without engine run which agrees with no auto-start. If gasoline, suggest you drain the fuel bowl and some of the tank(pint or so). Capture fuel into container. Then transfer to a transparent/glass container and let set a few minutes. Then look for a water line(fuel is lighter than water and will separate). Line high in jar means lots of water. If any sign of water and you need to clear the fuel system and tank. Then completely fill with FRESH fuel from a trusted source. Or if refueling too far, if you only use fuel from top of container that has sat for a few minutes, the water is on bottom and fuel on top.

Embedded processor memory error. The genset processor runs a periodic sum of all instruction memory space and compares it to a known value "check sum". Your unit has failed this test which means processor instruction space is potentially corrupted. This is a fatal error and it will not allow the genset to run until it is corrected. Likely this will require replacing the control board.

Does the fuse holder or wiring diagram have the fuse size listed on it ? It could be an incorrect fuse size from the factory or installed by someone who was just lucky the day they installed it and it ran with what is essentially a fuse with too low a rating. Are you using the correct voltage rating ie 120volts not 12volts or whatever. IF IF the second fuse works that kinda tells me there is no fatal short in the system, otherwise it would blow that fuse also. I would try a 20amp or a 17.5amp if it's made in the configuration you need. Preferably the 17.5. If you replace the 15A with the 20A and it blows then you have a problem.

The overload fault is indicating that your connected load is overloading the generator capacity and it's tripping off. Check your connected load (what ever is hooked up that you're trying to power). You need to use an amp meter to verify the amp draw, and also the rated voltage output. If it's low voltage, could be low engine RPM or voltage regulator. high current indicates a problem with load your trying to power, ie-- Motor or other load.

Appearing good and IS good is two different things. Use an ohmmeter to test continuity on the fuse. also look at the traces on the display board for open conditions or scorched components.
