Drop the main control panel forward and check for any loose, broken, burnt wiring.
Component test the MCB,RCD and voltage selector switch.
● Check oil level and top-up to the correct level
if necessary.
● Check the oil pressure switch operation -
Switch normally closed when engine is at rest
and open when engine running - Remove,
clean or replace if necessary.
● Check associated wiring from the oil pressure
switch to the DSE 3110.
● Oil change and oil filter clean recommended.
● Has the engine overheated? - Check the
generator canopy has no obstructions over any
vented areas - Also see Operating
Environment in this handbook.
Fault occurs after
the engine has
fired
AC Output Fault
Generator starts
and runs but
there is no output
from the AC
socket outlets
● Check the MCB & RCD are switched on (up).
● Check the voltage selector switch is in the
correct position.
● Check the reset buttons for the output
sockets.
Fault occurs after
the engine has
fired
● Check the temperature switch operation -
Disconnect both wires and link together to test
- replace if necessary - DO NOT USE WITHOUT
A TEMPERATURE SWITCH FITTED.
● Check associated wiring from the
temperature switch to the DSE 3110.

Battery Charge System Fault Finding
When a battery charging fault has occurred the battery lamp on the control panel should be illuminated
when the generator/engine is running.
Firstly measure the DC voltage directly at the battery while the generator is at standstill, this should be
around 12.5v DC. Test the battery and replace if necessary.
Start and run the generator. Once the set is up and running the DC voltage at the battery should measure
anything from 13.5 to 15.0v DC in normal operation - If the measured voltage is below 13.0V after 5 minutes
of running continue with the fault finding.
