Owner’s Manual for Portable Generator
Fault Indicator Codes
The fault (P) code is displayed by a series of
blinks to indicate the code number. There is a
one second pause between blink sequences.
• If multiple failures have been detected, the
fault light will turn off for 2 seconds between
fault codes.
• Once the fault light has flashed all failure
codes, the fault light will turn off for 4 sec-
onds. Then the 4 second End Code light
turns on. After the End Code light, the unit
will repeat the codes up to 10 times, and
then stay lit.
• Once the fault(s) have been resolved, dis-
connect and reconnect the battery. The
ECU will automatically reset and stop flash-
ing fault codes.
