Does anybody have a Kohler 20kW with a remote radiator that knows what the voltage to the blower fan would be and how to troubleshoot? My radiator and squirrel cage blower are in the next bay over and I cannot figure out why the blower motor will not turn on, some think there is a switch or sensor that might be fault and is not telling it to turn on. Thanks

First, make sure that when the generator is running, the fan is getting power from the generator. It should be powered anytime the generator is running and producing electricity.

Yeah there is a reset button next to the fuse and breaker on the control box that pops out after 5 seconds every time I turn on the generator, like the fan is pulling too many amps for it

Does the generator continue to run when the reset button pops out?

Yes it does, I have been told that those reset switches can go bad though. What is odd is that the reset switch would only turn off that fan

Guess it is possible but usually that would trip a breaker in the nearby breaker box.

As far as I can tell it does not have its own breaker, at least in the dedicated bass panel. To make it worse, I can't figure out how to get the motor out as there is no room and the screws holding this motor casing in to the floor are stripped, hoping to figure out that the rusted bracket at the bottom does not need to come out to remove the fan casing but no luck so far
