Does anyone have this generator on there truck? Is it the newer model with electronic governor? Have you had any issues?
I recently received my Kohler in November. To start they had sent me
the wrong unit. It was the 16.5 EORZD unit at 65.5 amps when they were
supposed to send the 20EORD at 83.3 amps. After some replacements parts
were sent it was upgraded.
But now I am having an issue after I initially start the unit 1.5 -
2hrs in I get a drop in voltage a split second from 120 to 100 volts this is on the AC side now on the DC side the unit holds at 11 volts but during this glitch as I call it the volts drop as well as the DC Amps internally in the generator .
Now this will continue through out the day every 1.5-2 hrs. It is
enough of a drop that one of my LNR M2 upconverters that the 24volt
power supply failure kicks in.
Kohler agreed to send me another unit but have to wait 8 weeks for them
to build it but I found one on a dock in NJ so they agreed to send that
one to me. But my generator shop wanted to test it before installing it
in my truck and this one has the same issue drops voltage after
different time variations but it still does it even on a completely seperate load bank that does not cycle like HVAC systems or transmitters. I am wondering if
anyone else has come across this issue?
