    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    Now that my generator is running it appears to be picking up trash or water in the fuel. When I bought it the fuel had been drained with a small amount left in the bottom of the tank. I filld it with fresh fuel. Is there an easy way to clean the tank without removing it?

    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    A jumper between 4 & 8 solved the problem. Thanks for all your help Gentlemen !

    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    I read that wrong. You said in stop position. In the off position only 6 & 8 have 24 VCD 2 & 4 have 0. Holding the swith in the start position gives 24 VCD to all 4 pins.

    There are 22.5 to 23.5 VDC on 2,4,6, & 8.

    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    I guess I start with the easiest first. Which other pin would the jumper from 3 lead to. I would guess a pin that stayed 24 VDC after switch is released.

    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    Sorry guys, I was out of town last week and had to drop this project. Guyfang, there is 24 VDC at pin 3 after starting and holding S1 in start position. As soon as switch is released all voltage drops to 0 from pin 3.

    Testing the terminals 1 and 7 on S1 I must have blown a fuse are something. Now I have no power to panel or starting switch.

    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    I made a mistake there is only one jumper on S1. It is between 1 and 3.

    I just bought it, never saw it run. There are 2 jumpers on S1. I will not be able to test voltage until tomorrow.

    The back of the S1 switch is square and blue. I will check the voltage as you suggested. Thanks kloppk

    Voltage comes on when the generator is started.

    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    As soon as I release the start switch it dies and loses all power to the control panel. While running there are no fault lights on. I hold the start switch on until the oil pressure reaches 80 psi.

    Fermont MEP-804A Dies after releasing start switch.

    New to this site. This problem may have been addressed before but I need to ask again. Just bought a Fermont MEP-804A generator set. 2003 model with updated tier 2 engine with 950 hours. I put new filters on it and added new fluids. It starts and runs great and produces electricity, but when I...
