Description
Replacement Ignition Controller Light Display.
Generator Guru says:
This part displays what fault is occuring with your generator if it is either not starting or not producing power.
If your generator fails to start: check the spark, if you have no spark you need to determine what part of the ignition system has failed.
The “Ignition Controller CDI” provides fault warnings via the 3 lights on the control panel, and will determine if ignition should take place. When you try to start the generator, take note of which lights illuminate.
Low Oil Warning light comes on - check the oil level. If correct level, disconnect the oil sensor (this can usually be found protruding from the base of the engine and has a 2 pin connector tab to disconnect) and start the engine. If this does not solve the problem then replace your “Ignition Controller CDI”.
Overload Warning light on - This is most commonly the "Inverter" at fault however you should check your output with a small light (or other low cost device), if you get output then replace your "Ignition Controller CDI".
Output indicator light on - indicates that the “Ignition Controller CDI” and “Inverter” are working correctly and the fault is elsewhere in the ignition system. You need to check your Ignition Coil and Spark Plug.
No light comes on - The "Ignition Controller Light Display" is faulty
You will need to undo the screw and remove the Round Fuel On/Off Switch from the front of the Generator before removing the Housing. When taking apart the Generator Housing to replace the Part, be sure you take note of all the small parts that make up the support of the Engine to the Housing, and how they fit back together. This can be a tricky job, so assistance from another person when taking the Housing apart and reassembling it, might make the job much easier and quicker!
