Thanks Guyfang. I will take your advise and pull the tank.

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?

kloppk That is the jumper that was missing. Running now. Thnaks.

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

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.

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.

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.

Which terminals do the jumpers go to?

Got power back and starts. While test the power points accidently pushed in the emergance shut down. Makes me feel like a dummy. Still dies after releseing the start switch so will continue testing power points. Thanks.

Will do. Thanks All.

I push on CB1 and it appears to be pushed in.

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.

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.

Yes panel ligts go off when the start switch is released and engine dies.

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.

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...
