EFI Fault Code Diagnostics
Fault Indicator Light
When the EFI system is connected to a power source
(battery) and the generator is not running, the fault light
will turn on. Once the generator starts the fault light will
turn off. When a failure is detected, the fault light will flash
in a series of codes. The severity of the fault will
determine the flash code.
There are 3 failure levels:
• Level 1 will flash and the generator will run. There
may be a slight impact on performance.
• Level 2 will flash and the generator will shut down
if multiple errors are detected.
• Level 3 will shut down the generator.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the Fault Indicator Light is
flashing 2/10 second on and 2/10 seconds off, this
indicates a low or dead battery fault. This sequence stays
on and takes precedent before other faults will be
displayed.
