I put 10,000+ hours on this model genset and it was an incredible quiet and fuel efficient generator, zero issues

can. you run the generator out of the rv to be sure it is right? i have this to do and want to make sure it runs right before I put it back in.
@jeffbond001 Жыл бұрын
Sorry for such a delay in my response. I don't think you would be able to run in out of the vehicle because your fuel lines won't reach that far to hook back up.
@FreedomIsntFree2023 Жыл бұрын
Just for future reference......Yes, you can operate the genny outside of the RV to test before reinstallation. This will require some creativity on your part. So, to do this, you'll need to run a supply and return fuel line to some type of jug (gas can, milk jug, coffee can, etc.) with an appropriate amount of fuel in it. Then you can fashion a battery source to connect to the +/- terminals on the generator. Battery jumper cables will work fine for this. Lastly, if you plan to run the generator for more than a few minutes, make sure all the sheet metal covers are back in place, as the cooling system relies on those to direct air flow across the radiator.

Thank you jeff for your video, I have a question for you if you have some time for me. I have the same generator and It runs great but no power is coming out of the unit after power stopped while using convection microwave. Where do I test with my meter to see if generator is making power? All breakers are good and I have a error code of #38. Thank you Dave

Was it shutting down because of the temperature probe?
@jeffbond001 Жыл бұрын
Yes, the temperature sensor was bad, telling the computer it was too hot, therefore shutting the generator off.

Thanks, I have a Discovery on a Freightliner. My generator runs between 55 and 65 seconds and stops but well start immediately. Today I order the sender unit part # 193-0318. I have the some jack. Here I go.

7500 Quiet diesel Onan, HDKAJ. Here's the parts list I needed. Onan water temp sender 193-0318, Thermostat A046Z961 185-5458, Thermostat housing gasket 185-2238, Bypass hose 185-5722, Glow plug 185-5421, Water pump belt (which I didn't change but if yours looks at all worn this would be the time to do it since it's exposed) 511-0235. Also the inline fuel filter is Wix brand 33252. I ordered everything online and a few parts from eBay, saved me quite a bit of bucks rather than going to Cummins dealer. Its really not that hard to do, especially if you have a helper. Mine's still running strong. Hope this helps. Jeff

I just changed mine is in drawer and comes out almost halfway so I was able to fix it in place by removing the top, right side, and back of cabinet. I had to crawl under and behind the generator to reach the temp probe. I did have to use a horseshoe shaped wrench to get the probe out. I did check the coolant level and temp, as well as removed the thermostat. It just was not running hot. if parts are on hand it can be done in one day. I changed the probe and thermostat both were in stock at the closest cummins dealer. If you try to test it before you reinstall the cabinet it will run a while longer but will overheat due to lack of air flow. Thank you Jeff for the video it was the only thing I found that put me on the right track. I don't even want to know how much it would cost in time or money to have this done in a shop.

Hey glad it was of some help! I was given an estimate at a RV Dealership of $1000.00 labor plus parts. Best I remember all the parts with the 3 glow plugs (glow plugs definitely the most expensive parts) was about $400

Paul, I have a 2005 Phaeton with Onan on pull-out like yours. Ordered the temp sensor and thermostat and attempted to replace today. For the life of me, I could not get the old temp sensor to break free. It is a very tight space but I could get a19mm socket on the sensor but not enough room for the socket. My socket was a 6 point but even so it tended to round the corners off the old sensor. You post mentioned using a horseshoe shape wrench. Where did you find such a creature or did you just make one out of and old 19 mm wrench? Help!

If the temp probe is your problem it just won't be hot. see my comment above.
@jeffbond0014 жыл бұрын
I just went by research and the code flashes on the unit itself. It was giving a high temp code but the coolant was never even warm. So after research I was 99% sure it was the problem. My temp sensor had a lot of buildup attached to it, made me wonder if periodically changing the fluid would of helped? Also I have all the part numbers if that would help you. They were a little hard to find, but I'll be glad to post them if you need them. Jeff

It's really not hard to do, just time consuming. If you have a helper to hand you tools it'll save a lot of time. I feel like it went back in easier than it came out, probably because I already knew what I'd need and how it was done.
