hi jack,

we are looking at our kohler manuals and here is something to try.

there is a breaker box that has the two breakers in it. it also has a round fuseholder recepticle. it has an 8amp fuse in it.

on top of the generator at the back is a control box. it is rectangular on ours and about 3 inches by a foot and 8 inches deep or so. it has the toggle switches to do remote preheat and start.

it has a round fuse holder that holds a 10 amp fuse.

here is what our manuals both say (his is a 92 and mine is a 90).

"if the 8 amp fuse (in the end breaker box) is blown, the engine will crank but not start. if the 10 amp fuse (on the controller box) is blown, the engine will not crank. if either fuse blows while the generator is running, the set will stop."

by basically jumping it by doing what are, it will bypass the control circuitry.

check those fuses....

tom
