If you have manually cranked generator and it's not cranking over
▪
• Check starting battery leads make sure these leads are across the main battery
bank for only 12V. The Negative lead should be on the main negative i.e.,
parallel connection. The positive lead should be in the middle of the battery
bank across 12V.
Check with a multimeter to make sure the starter is getting 12-14 volts only.
▪
▪ If while using the multimeter you see 15-19 volts or higher, remove the red lead
and place it in the correct spot for 12-14 volts. The red lead should be in the
middle of the battery bank.
▪ Try starting the generator without using the auto start controller.
• To due this use, the toggle switch located on the generator itself and see if it
starts.
• If the generator doesn't start check regulator
◦
▪ There should be a small cube relay and socket located on the generator, it will
have a few green wires, white wires and black wires going to and from it. This
relay controls the signal for the auto start controller. Make sure the cube relay is
there and isn't blown.
• If the relay is missing or blown replace and try starting the generator again.
Q) My Dynagen had an error code, "Failure to Start", or "Under Voltage" what
may cause this?
• A) Follow the same procedure listed above.
Q) My Dynagen had an error code, "Failure to Start", or "Low Frequency" what
may cause this?
• A) Check to make sure you are getting the correct hertz out of the generator (60+
HZ)
◦ If you aren't getting 60+ HZ this is why the generator is shutting down.
▪ Check for a plugged or dirty air filter.
▪ Check for poor fuel or an almost empty propane tank
Reduce the load from the generator, to see if this helps.
▪
◦
Plug the AC (shore power) in and charge the battery bank up past 22Volts dc. This
▪
will allow the generator to work within its limits.

Open the connection between the regulator and then generator. There
should be a small 2-foot hose between the regulator and the generator,
open the connection slightly and make sure you hear/smell propane.
If you are trying to charge the battery bank and the battery bank is below
20volts or less this will cause the generator to over work past it's limits.
