Westerbeke gas generator
#1
Hi all, having an issue with my Westerbeke gas generator. When i go to start it the 8amp fuse on the generator control panel blows. I have bypassed the oil pressure switch, water temp switch and high exhaust temp switch, fuse will still blow. i have a short somewhere and cannot locate it. if I disconnect the remote switch harness the fuse will not blow but the genny will only stay running while holding the ON switch on. Very confusing....any ideas out there? i cant get a mechanic to look at it, most dont want to work on GAS generators.
