SOURCE: 2 year old honda eu1000i generator with new spark
SOUNDS LIKE TO ME YOU HAVE A PROBLEM IN THE OIL ALERT SYSTEM, IF YOU HAVE THE REPAIR MANUAL IT WILL TELL YOU HOW TO TROUBLE SHOOT IT!!!
SOURCE: How can I shut my Honda eu1000i off from inside the cabin?
You should not have to cut any wires to install a remote kill switch. Most honda engines have an oil alert what will cut ignition if oil level is low. The switch actually shorts the itnition to ground just like the on / kill switch. Just unplug oil alert wire from harness and add a homemade connector with second lead and connect another wire to ground/frame of generator engine. When you short these two wires together it should kill engine. Solder these two wires to a female connector (Radio Shack) and just leave inside generator when you want remote switch. Attach switch to leads of desired length of male connector to mate with female connector at generator. Good Luck.
