GENERATOR HELP 1990 WB40

[Jamie]

HI ALL
I have a 12.5 Yanmar generator
I sprung a leak in my water hose so the Genny shut down
I replace the hose and now it will not start
I understand it has a shut down switch
dose anyone know how to check that??
If I pull back the fuel solenoid it will run only if I hold it back
it dose not generate power running like that
dose anyone have any Idea's of this problem??
anyone know if there is any breakers that I could be not seeing??
any help would be great
Im on my way to the keys and have no ac
thanks

Jamie,

I'm assuming by water hose you mean coolant hose? And I also assume that after replacing it you made sure the coolant level was corrected? Because if not, it will sense the low coolant level and cause issues. Again, assuming you already did all of this, I'd still double check your level and if ok, move on to other testing to see if you have a new issue unrelated to the first. Did you check the breaker in the box in the gennie compartment? Make sure no fuses got tripped?

Markus

Thanks for your reply
yes it is a water hose and yes I did loos some antifreeze
I did replace the hose and did fill the water tank
At first I thou rt the same thing not enough water
so I ran it to get the water moving and then added more,
The radiator it laying flat so there is no fill point for that
I cant find the breaker in the genny compartment.

set trips on high water temperature ...you may have the same-worth a second

I did look into that I don't see one on either the radiator or the overflow unit
I did check the solinode start stop and its not getting 12 volts full time just
when you hit the start switch
it seems like its in shut down mode
I have checked everything I can see
there's got to be a relay or something I'm missing
or it could be a bad temp shut down switch
still looking
thanks


ANY HELP FROM ANYONE WOULD BE APPRECIATED

Still no luck with my generator
Dose anyone know how to check the temp shut down switch
I did do a check and found that it is in some kind of safe mode
but I don't know where or what to check next.
I also noticed that the oil meter gauge is full up pined.
by the blue print it looks like it is hooked into the same line as the water
temp shut down switch.
any help would be appreciated thank you
