Troubleshooting Chart

Symptom
Zero output from receptacles
Low output voltage with no load
High output voltage with no load
Low output voltage under load
Erratic output voltage
Noisy operation
These diagnostic and repair procedures should be performed by an authorized service center.
Possible Cause(s)
1. Engine speed is too slow
2. Open, shorted, or incorrect wiring
3. Faulty capacitor
4. Open/shorted rotor or stator windings
5. Open rectifier
6 Vac or above 1. Engine speed is too slow
2. Open rectifier
3. Faulty capacitor
4. Open/shorted rotor or stator windings
Below 6 Vac 1. Generator head not magnetized
1. Faulty capacitor
2. Engine speed is too fast
1. Open rectifier
2. Engine speed too slow at full load
3. Excessive load applied
1. Surging engine
2. Dirty, corroded, or loose wiring
connection
3. Unbalanced load applied
1. Loose generator or engine bolt
2. Short circuit in generator field or load
3. Faulty bearing

Corrective Action
1. Adjust engine speed
2. Referring to the wiring diagram, clean
3. Replace capacitor
4. Test winding resistance, replace winding
5. Test rectifier, replace if necessary
1. Adjust engine speed
2. Test rectifier, replace if necessary
3. Replace capacitor
4. Test winding resistance, replace winding
1. Re-magnetize generator head
1. Replace capacitor
2. Adjust engine speed
1. Test rectifier, replace if necessary
2. Adjust engine speed
3. Reduce the applied load
1. Refer to engine manual
2. Referring to the wiring diagram, clean
3. Remove all loads, then apply each one
1. Tighten all mountings
2. Test winding resistance, replace field
3. Replace bearing
5
and reconnect all wiring
if necessary
if necessary
and reconnect all wiring
individually to determine which one is
causing erratic function
winding if necessary
Test load devices for shorts. Replace
defective load device.
