Re: —-UPDATE—- Power tech generator problem Reply #25 – September 02, 2019, 10:30:43 pm That is the same indication I would get. The latching relay on mine is in the control box. It is a white finder latching relay. The same one used in other places in our coach like water pump and kitchen light. I don't have a 10k but I believe they use them in the bigger ones as well. It is worth testing to make sure that is not it. Here are pictures of mine. It is in the back right corner of the box.Mark Quote Selected 2 Likes

Re: —-UPDATE—- Power tech generator problem Reply #27 – September 03, 2019, 01:13:27 pm Mine is also under the drivers seat. Its a split system to keep vibration down I guess.Looks like this now. Just below it is the res for the windshield wiper cleaning system that now has residue of antifreeze ..... Quote Selected
Re: —-UPDATE—- Power tech generator problem Reply #28 – September 03, 2019, 01:42:42 pm They were concerned about heat when these mods were made. Maybe why so many voltage regulator problems in the generator compartment. But it also eliminated vibration. Quote Selected

Re: —-UPDATE—- Power tech generator problem Reply #30 – September 05, 2019, 01:06:41 pm Anyone that has moved the control box from generator to another location. What parts did you need. Wire sizes, colors, normal splices, connectors. That is what I am wondering about. Limited materials here. But my fingers do great with web supplies. Quote Selected

Re: —-UPDATE—- Power tech generator problem Reply #32 – October 25, 2019, 02:48:44 am So far yes, I changed the control board on the generator and have about 6 hours run time with no issues. Keith Quote Selected 8 Likes
Re: —-UPDATE—- Power tech generator problem Reply #33 – October 27, 2019, 11:44:06 pm I had similar problem, not being handy, I took Big Beauty over to the PowerTech service agent here in Fort Worth, Cantwell Power. They discovered Oil Temp sensor was bad. I had that replaced and everything cleaned in the cooling system cleaned while they had it out/apart. We have the PT 10KW. Something else to check maybe. Hope you figure it out soon! I can double check the paperwork to make sure what I'm remembering is correct, but she's been running like a champ since. Enjoy NM! Quote Selected 1 Likes
