    Cool Generator Shutdown

    On the way home from Tn. to Ms. we stopped about 8 pm last night turned on generator and went to sleep. About 6 hours later generator shutsdown.
    I have 3/4 tank of fuel, oil in gen okay, coolant okay. tried to restat but when you push switch the dials do not light up. Battery is 13.2. Is there a circuit breaker hidden inderneath somewhere? Give me some hints. Thanks, Dan

    Default Generator

    Dan, Ed asked,"What type generator do you have?" He said that ours has a circuit braker on the gen itself on the panel. Ours is a PowerTech. Call him if he can help out somehow. 305-360-0269. I am getting ready to go and check in to Kamp for my week here in TN.

    What do you mean by 'the dials do not light up"?

    On the dash I have the oil and temp guages that light up when you turn Gen on. Talked to powertech today and they said bypast reset button with just a 4 amp fuse as the button(breaker) is probaly weak. Will try in the am . Thanks , Dan

    Hey Dan, we haven't heard from you. Have you had time to get the problem fixed yet? Jon, Di, Roger, Micki, Eric, Deb, Jay, Ed and I missed you and Jo tonight with dinner at the Foothills Milling Restuarant in Maryville, TN. It was very nice and the food was outstanding!! Eric wouldn't share his desert with me though.

    I'm sure not as much as we missed being there. We are still stuck in Raleigh. C came down with a horrible respiratory infection. We hope to get going this mid week. Oh well, I have taken the time to get other stuff done.

    Hope you are having a good time and lots of fun.

    Thanks for the concern there Dumptruck. My wife swears she caught it from the relatives that went visiting Georgia. I told her she was wrong though. If that was the case, the lawn would have died and she feel a lot worse.

    SInce I'm tired of cutting my lawn, do you have any plans for the Raleigh area any time soon?
