Diesel Generator-Checking/Changing Fuses
A circuit breaker in line interrupts the generator output in
the event of a fault in the wiring between the generator and
the load. The line circuit breaker is shown in the typical
parts description on the previous page. If the breaker
“blows” reduce the load and switch the breaker to the
OFF position.
On select generators various breakers/fuses protect various
wiring circuits. Always identify the cause of a blown fuse
before restarting the generator. See the troubleshooting
section for more information or call your closest authorized
dealer.
A replaceable fuse protects the controller circuitry. If the
controller display is dark, check the battery and battery
connections and then check the controller fuse.
Replace the fuse if it is blown.
A replaceable fuse protects the engine relays. If the
generator set does not crank, check the battery and battery
connections and then check the relay fuse. Replace the fuse
if it is blown. A replaceable fuse protects the alternator.
Note: Some fuses are ceramic, others are of the glass type.
Replace with identical type and amperage.
Note: Refer to the Westerbeke or Kohler generator
operator’s manual for more detailed information.
