SOURCE: my 3.5 kw kohler marine

Check that when you run it, it is not in fact making correct voltage (within about 10% is good), also make sure the engine is coming up to full speed, 3600 or 1800. You could check this with a multimeter that measure hertz. On the main output leads when the genset is running make sure it is getting close to 60 hz. or if you are in an area that uses 50 hz. check for that respectively. There are a couple things that would affect this, one would be your SCR module. There is a test procedure for this which you could find here. http://www.scribd.com/doc/50171916/tp6196-1 . I don't work on marine units, mostly standby so these manuals are for residential. Check your fuses, could even go as far as checking the wiring in the back and wiring and condition of the brushes and sliprings. These actually build field voltage to make 240 or 120 volts whatever your unit is configured to make. The brushes need to sit flat on the slip rings and on a unit with 10 hrs. the sliprings I can't imagine would be very dirty but check that as well. If you have an ADC2100 controller use this manual to go into the controller to verify that it is set for the correct voltage that the machine is built to make. The only other fairly simple thing to check that I've had issues with is if Kohler mounted a fuse block on the side of the cabinet mounted to the genset with no vibration isolation. Check these fuses while attempting to run the unit and make sure you getting steady voltage out of them as sometimes they will vibrate causing pulsed voltage to come out of them and can give you an intermittent UU, UF, or OC fault (undervoltage, underfrequency, overcrank).

What is the fix for a locked Rotor code on my Kohler 14 RESA generator?

Hi,

if possible please check your speed sensors within your generator to make sure each is still functioning properly. Otherwise, you might have to replace the sensors before the code goes away.

Thank you.

It depends on if its over voltage or undervoltage. I would check the governor linkage and throttle settings while using a volt meter and a 100W incandescent bulb.

Kohler 30RES Generator LOC code coolants ok

How old is the 30RES? unplug the low oil sensor on the radiator and see if it runs, they are notorious for failure and have to be filled in the radiator to the brim. If it runs order a new sensor, I have replaced many of them for this reason, but more often the radiator seems full by dipping finger in, but will always take more coolant. The sensor is mounted so high up in the radiator. I ask the age as newer ones require a signal to be maintained and it isn't just a simple ground if low on coolant, if it has 3 wires then disconnecting for the above test will not work
