Master Switch; Relay Interface Board (Rib) - Kohler 8.5RES Service

4.7 Master Switch

The generator set master switch is a three-position
(RUN\OFF/RESET\AUTO) rocker switch. The leads
connecting to the master switch are labeled RUN, VBAT,
and AUTO. Check that the three pink connectors are
connected to the terminals on the back of the switch as
shown in Figure 4-14. Be careful not to reverse the RUN
and AUTO leads.

4.8 Relay Interface Board (RIB)

The standard relay interface board (RIB) contains the
K2 crank, K3 flash, and K5 run relays. Three LEDs
indicate relay operation. See Figure 4-15.
Refer to the schematic diagram in Section 8 for the
standard relay board connections.
The RIB is protected by a 10 amp fuse (F2) located in the
wiring harness. If the fuse blows repeatedly, disconnect
the board loads one at a time to identify the cause of the
blown fuse:
D Lead 70A at the fuel valve
Lead IGN at the ignition module
D
Lead 71A at the starter relay
D
Leads FP and FN at the rotor
D
Repair or replace the component causing the blown
fuse.
If fuse continues to blow and disconnecting components
did not identify the cause, remove the leads from the
P14 connector using a pin pusher, part #241918 (large)
or 241919 (small). If replacing the leads does not solve
the problem, replace the RIB.
The individual relays are not replaceable. If one or more
relays are faulty, replace the entire RIB.
To replace the RIB:
1. Disconnect P14 and the brush leads FP and FN.
2. Pull the board straight off the mounting stand-offs.
3. Snap the new board onto the stand-offs and
reconnect P14 and the brush leads.

The generator set may be equipped with an optional
RIB, which contains the K4 auxiliary run relay and K1
common fault relay in addition to the standard relays.
The optional relay board kit includes a wiring harness for
connection of customer equipment to the K1 and K4
relays. See Figure 4-16 for optional relay connections.
