What to do if my Kohler Industrial Generator Set Inverter has no output voltage?
If your Kohler Inverter has no or low output voltage, first reset the breaker and check for AC voltage at the generator set side of the circuit breaker. The AC output circuit breaker may be open. If that's not the issue, test and/or replace the stator.
Why is my Kohler Inverter lacking power?
If your Kohler Inverter lacks power, it could be due to engine overload. Reduce the electrical load. See the generator set spec sheet for wattage specifications.
What to do if my Kohler Industrial Generator Set Inverter displays an error message or locks up?
If your Kohler Inverter displays an error message or locks up, it could be due to controller firmware or a pushbutton/rotary selector dial entry error. Review the Error Message Section. Also, try to recharge or replace the battery.
What causes low oil pressure in a Kohler Inverter?
If your Kohler Inverter has low oil pressure, check the oil level.
Why does my Kohler Industrial Generator Set Inverter have high fuel consumption?
If your Kohler Inverter has high fuel consumption, it may be due to dirty or faulty fuel injectors (diesel only); in this case, clean, test, and/or replace the inoperative fuel injector. Another reason may be that you need to reduce the electrical load. See the generator set spec sheet for wattage specifications.
What to do if my Kohler Inverter overheats?
If your Kohler Inverter overheats, restore the coolant to normal operating level if it's experiencing a low coolant level shutdown. If the cooling water pump is inoperative, replace the water pump.
How to fix excessive noise in my Kohler Industrial Generator Set?
If your Kohler Inverter is making excessive or abnormal noise, clean the air openings, as they may be clogged. Also, tighten all loose hardware.
How to fix a Kohler Industrial Generator Set Inverter that starts hard?
If your Kohler Inverter starts hard, disconnect the engine harness connector(s) then reconnect it to the controller. The engine harness connector(s) may not be locked tight.
What to do if my Kohler Industrial Generator Set Inverter stops suddenly?
If your Kohler Inverter stops suddenly, reset the fault switches and troubleshoot the controller. This may be due to a failed shutdown.
