OK, so you are saying it was running & producing AC electrical output and then quit producing AC electrical output while running? Or, you started it up and it was not producing AC electrical output on that restart & hasn't since that restart?
Let's start with the simple stuff 1st (
with generator powered off):
1. Can you confirm that the "AC Reconnection Switch" is free to turn? If so, cycle the AC Reconnection Switch through the 3 switch positions "multiple" times. Exercising it should clean off any residual switch oxidation. However, if switch is stuck (don't force it with pliars, etc.) report back & that will have to be discussed as how best to deal with it w/o breaking.
2. Look inside the control box panel and check inside for anything odd - Burnt components or wires, loose wires/screws, etc.
3. Take the side panel (panel below the AC output lugs) off the AC Reconnection box and look inside & do the same - inspect wires, terminal post screws tight, verify no rodents nests, etc.
Note: When inspecting any wires it always good to to a tug-test to insure wire is firmly attached to its terminal end. Otherwise, you can experience intermittent wire contact that comes & goes & it will drive you crazy!
Hello Chainbreaker how are you. Yes it was running and I had it 240v configuration. I heard a "tick" noise and the voltmeter went to zero. Hasnt made power since. Will have to try rotating the voltage connection switch to see if that helps.
