RV generator started 2 weeks ago , no problems. This weekend only a metal clicking or tapping sound from the right side of generator. Leads clean 13.2 volts to unit. What is my next move??? Unit is a 2008 105 hours on it.
You have voltage,but not Amps.Voltage plus Amps = Power
Charge the Battery .
No amps, low power,its why makes only clicking sounds.

It should have a cover on the floor bottom that is held in place with two torx (star) screws. remove the cover and you can remove the plug with a 9/16 socket.

Hi, The 4000 rv unit unit is equipped with full diagnostics, and is indicated by the status light blinking. The blinking sequence, blinks a code as to the fault. If your unit runs and the status light is on without blinking, it is either the circuit breaker on the genset or in your distribution panel that needs to be reset. Good Luck, this should Fixya!

If your unit is running fine and then all of a sudden it just shuts down it is usually that you stopped creating voltage. You need to check the brushes and rings. If you are able to start the unit right up without any hesitation and voltage is being produced, then your fuel pump is breaking down. If you do have hard time restarting then you may have clogged fuel filters. One at the carberator and one at the fuel pump.

All generators need to be run once a month. All things from the tank to the and including the carb will get gummed up with dried out fuel. I have a whole house generator and a 5500 watt gen set on my motor home. I keep fresh fuel in the stand alone house generator in California in case of a bad earthquake. I drain the gas after every run and keep all vehicles full of fuel just in case. Run gen sets at least once a month or pay pay pay!!
