You probably have either a bad capacitor or more likely a short stator winding due to previous overloading

SOURCE: 30 volts coming out of generator

sounds to me like a grounding issue. I would check all my ground paths and look for poor connection or corroded contacts, broken or almost broken wires etc. Hope this helps :)

SOURCE: Honda EG 2200 Generator wont Start

First make sure that you have a spark; remove the spark plug and position it so that the threads are touching the engine frame. Pull the cord and check the plug for spark. If you have spark, put the plug back in.

Get some starting fluid and spray it into the air intake of the carbuerator. Try to start the engine. If it starts and then stops, that indicates that you have a fuel delivery problem. Clean the fuel filter.

SOURCE: honda. eg550 generator

I would say the AC is overloading the Generator. AC units require ALLOT OF POWER.

Honda generator not producing electrical current

Generators rely on a residual magnetic field to "kick start" the current making process. Yours has lost this field. Easy enough to fix however.
Plug in an electric drill while it's running. Squeeze the trigger and manually twist the end of the drill (this will act as a miniature generator, as the Honda has lost its magnetic permeability and this motor rotating in reverse will generate a small current and restore it). Take care as, as soon as you spin it fast enough to develop a current, the generator will pick up on this current and start generating it's own current; energizing the drill. Once the generator starts generating current, it will repair itself.

Electric starter will not work on honda e u 3000 generator

Hi there! 1) Check battery with a load tester and recharge / replace if necessary 2) Check the ignition switch for loose wires or if the switch is okay 3) Remove the starter and try to run it against a piece of wood ( Have you seen the wooden hammer handle of an auto electrician?) If you can stop it then the motor needs repair/replacement it is often cheaper to replace than repair it excluding labour!! 4) Check ringear on the flywheel and the pinnion of the starter motor for binding and wear. Keep these tips in mind for your Automobiles too

I HAVE A GENERATOR HONDA E2500.

the generator is not big enough to run what you want
it needs to be 3500w minimum or 4.5w to be safe
although it is stated at 2500 watts , in fact that is the peak load on electric motor start up and its continuous rating will be around 1.8 watts
all of this is clearly stated on the specs plate on the generator
