coutch Report post Posted June 9, 2009 I have a Generac generator in my motorhome. It would stop after 10 minutes but would start right back up and run for about 10 minutes, then stop again. I pulled the ground wire off the oil safety switch but still encountered the same problem. In checking the wiring, I discovered that both the oil and temp switchs were on the same hot wire. I disconnected the hot wire, and the generator ran for an hour with and without a load until I shut it down. Is there a way to check either switch to find the bad one? Or should I replace both and hope this was the real problem. Any comments are welcomed. I don't want to use the generator without the proper equipment. Thanks, Coutch.
