Kohler genset tripping

[Curt Sprenger]

Rose Mary,
On our 1987, in order for the generator system fan motor to run (turn),
it needs voltage, which the alternator (the Kohler unit) should provide.
The fan will not turn if the voltage is not present. On ours, it turned
out the Kohler unit was bad, not putting out the voltage due to corroded
windings, etc. I replaced the Kohler with the Newage unit. I suggest
having a reliable generator shop test your system.
