Why does alarm 30A start fail occur on Woodward easYgen-300 Control Panel?
P
Paul WilsonAug 26, 2025
If alarm "30A - Start fail" occurs on your Woodward Control Panel, possible causes include a low fuel situation, a disconnected fuel line, a defective or miswired fuel relay output, a defective or miswired crank relay output, or a crank cutout speed parameter set too low. To troubleshoot, check if enough fuel is present, ensure the fuel line is properly connected, measure the resistance between terminals 13 and 11 (fuel relay) and 14 and 11 (crank relay) on the easYgen-300, and measure engine speed when cranking before ignition.
