Auto Generator Start Help

[Tom McCarthy]

Kurt,

On my '95, I have a Low AC setting and a No AC setting. Low AC means
that it will monitor the house batteries and start the generator
before they go below a certain level of charge. No AC works when you
are relying on 110v, say for air conditioning, and do not want a
popped breaker to stop air conditioning until the batteries drain
down. This is more like an instant on setting.

You can test the No Ac by turning off power at the breaker.
Generator should start immediately. Low AC requires what you
evidently did, drain the batteries to the level where it starts the
generator.

If neither setting and test works, the auto gen has an issue. Since
I am not technical, maybe someone else will chime in with next
steps. I always find inserting my American Express into the problem
area works.
