We have a Kohler propane generator M/N 14RESA S/N SGM 3236TV The generator runs for a couple of minutes and shuts off and leaves a message of maintenance requires.

I don't have information on this so can you tell me what maintenance may need to be performed and how to reset this program. Thank you Gerry Beard

SOURCE: Remove Oil maintenance required message on 2008 Toyota Highlander

This is the reset proceedure for a 2008 Highlander with a key-type ignition:

Turn the key ON, do not start the engine.

Look at the odometer, and verify that it displays "TRIP A". If it is on "ODO" or "Trip B", press the black stick next to the odometer to read "TRIP A".

Turn the key OFF.

Press in, and HOLD the black trip meter reset button, hold it IN.
DO not release it.

Turn the key ON, do not start the engine

Observe the Odometer display. You will see 5 dashes, then 4, then 3, then 2, then 1 dash, and finally, 5 zeros. Then, whatever number that was displayed on "TRIP A" will be re-displayed..

Now release the black trip meter reset stick.

This completes the reset procedure, and it will be back on in 5,000 miles, to remind you of you next oil change.

Hope this helps! Thanks for choosing FixYa!

SOURCE: kohler 12kw generator starts but shuts down after 3sec

Your gas pressure is too low and you may not have a large enough supply pipe. You need at least 10 inches of water column with the engine running to operate an LP vapor fueled engine. Because the engine is starving for fuel, its governor opens the throttle to WOT (so it goes to high revs) but there isn't any fuel to make horsepower with so the output voltage falls and the undervoltage alarm trips.

SOURCE: How do I reset the maintenance required message on

With ignition off, press and hold "SELECT" and "RESET" buttons on dash and turn ignition to the "ON" position. Continue to hold until lamp resets.

SOURCE: "Time for periodic maintenance"

Go into (08) mode by holding 0 and 8 when turning on the copier. 251 is the number of copies until it displays that message and 252 is the count since last Preventative maintenance. Resetting 252 will clear the message or putting 251 higher than the value of 252 will clear it as well.

Why my generator shuts down and posts a message cc-1 crank cycle

Maybe the start motor is damaged. You can check it first.

Surging

It definately sounds like a fuel problem, lack of fuel..I assume it is running on LP or natural gas. The hose running from the demand regulator goes to the carburetor/mixer. When it gets to the carburetor, there is an adjustable main jet. It is different on different models, but is usually easy to find. There is probably a screw slot in the end of the screw head and a spring under the head. Start it up after locating the screw and open the jet just enough to even out the running. It was factory set, but barometric pressure and altitude and different fuels in different areas will decessitate different settings.
Please let me know if this fixes your problem, Robert

14kw kohler propane generator-sometimes does not start, put battery jumper on and it starts. Battery is new, but had the same problem with the old battery.

The battery charger is defective, as you can start it by jumping it off means it is just a low battery. without it running measure battery voltage, it should be around 12V then plug the charger back in, it should climb to around 13.8B with a good battery. If not have the float charger checked.

I have a Kohler 12 RES home standby generator. Once in a while when the power goes out the generator will start and then immediately shut down with no fault codes. When I flip the control in the unit

Check the inlet fuel pressure, on exervise there is no load, when power is out it is loaded and demands more fuel. Also check for bugs blocking gas regulators vents etc

I have a locked rotor fault message.

I had this fault show this morning. Very alarming, as we have a typhoon coming theough tomorrow!

Turned out to be an easy fix. When I hit start the solenoid engaged but nothing moved. Then I saw the fault message and thought "Large $$$$!"

It was just a bad 12 Volt battery, and when it couldn't crank it threw the fault code. I replaced the battery, pulled the 3 fuses on the control panel (mine is the 20 Kw model), and the codes cleared, and she fired right up.

The advice here and on a couple other sites about powering down the panel to clear fault codes saved me a lot of time, money and aggravaion, not to mention a freezer full of food (knowing the Guam Power Authority, and knowing typhoons, the power WILL go down tomorrow.

My 18RESL Kohler Propane Generator ran for 8.5 hours and shut down for overspeed. later it started up again and shut down for under frequency. Now it won't even turn over. Where do I start. I checked...

You have to reset it because it locked out on on under frequency. Just pullout the fuse on the control panel and then reinstall it a couple of seconds later. Now it will reset the fault codes. Hope that helps.

Is the outside air temp cold. These generators will backfire if it is real cold and if the propane pressure is low. It is suppose to be 11 to 12 inches of water colume at the generator fuel input. drygwals
