Many generator problems look alike from the outside. A generator that will not start could have a dead battery, bad fuel, a blocked filter or a failed sensor, and replacing parts without a diagnosis gets expensive. Diagnostics is the step that finds the real cause first.

A proper diagnosis usually checks:

  • Battery condition and the starting circuit
  • Fuel supply, fuel quality and the fuel filter
  • Air filter, spark plugs and oil level
  • Control board codes and safety shutdowns
  • Engine performance under load
  • Output voltage and the transfer switch

The result is a clear explanation of what failed and what it would take to fix it, so you can decide before work begins. Call and describe the symptoms.

Generator Troubleshooting And Diagnostics FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Generator Troubleshooting and Diagnostics

Questions we hear most often about Generator Troubleshooting and Diagnostics in Harvel, IL.

Talk to a real person
Why won't my home generator start?
The most common causes are a weak or dead battery, stale fuel or a clogged fuel filter, a dirty air filter, a worn spark plug, low oil, or a control board fault. Check whether the generator shows an error code, and note whether it clicks, cranks or does nothing. Those details point to the cause.
What is the difference between a standby generator and a portable generator?
A standby generator is permanently installed, runs on natural gas or propane and starts automatically when the power fails. A portable generator is moved by hand, runs on gasoline or propane, and you start it and connect it yourself.
What does an automatic transfer switch do?
It moves your home from utility power to the generator when the power goes out, and back again when it returns. It also prevents the generator from feeding power back into the grid, which protects utility workers.
Why does my generator run but the house has no power?
The usual causes are a failed transfer switch, a tripped breaker, a damaged outlet or a failed voltage regulator. Because it involves your electrical system, it should be checked by a qualified person.
Who performs the repair?
We are a referral service. We connect you with an independent local provider, who does the work and sets the price and availability. You deal with the provider directly.
