We have a factory installed Onan EC30.
QD 8kw generator.
Fuel tank is three quarters full.
House batteries are low.
Onan EC 30 is set in automatic mode.
The last time I used the automatic mode several months ago the generator ran continuous until the system was satisfied.
Problem:
The generator will turn on and run for 10?15 minutes then shut off. About 5 seconds later it will come back on and run for another 10-15 minutes. It will repeat this cycle until the batteries are charged.
In manual mode the generator will run continuous until I shut it off.
I am thinking the generator should run continuous and the problem may be in the EC30 circuitry.
Has anyone seen this type of problem or have any other thoughts?
