What to do if DeWalt DXGNR 8000 Portable Generator engine is running but AC output is not available?

  Justin OdonnellAug 8, 2025
  If your DeWalt Portable Generator's engine runs but there's no AC output, several factors could be at play. First, check if the circuit breaker is open and reset it. Then, inspect the cord set for poor connections or defects, repairing as necessary. Ensure the connected device is functioning correctly by testing with another device. If the generator has a GFCI receptacle, check if it's open and press the reset button after correcting any ground faults. If none of these steps work, there may be a fault in the generator.

Why does my DeWalt DXGNR 8000 Portable Generator engine run well at no-load, but bogs when load is applied?

  If your DeWalt Portable Generator runs well at no-load but bogs down when a load is applied, it could be due to several reasons. A short circuit in a connected load could be the issue; try disconnecting electrical loads to identify and remove the shorted one. Another possibility is a dirty fuel filter, which should be replaced.
