20 Most Recent Pramac 5000 Watt Generator Questions & Answers

Question edited for clarity, correct spelling of 'phases' AGAIN. I remember you from yesterday! Question moved from Cars and Trucks category. They have 30 models or more. Blink codes. https://www.google.com/search?q=pramac+generator+alarm+list ..

I'm guessing some attempted a repair of a cracked plastic fuel tank or fitting. You need to determine what component is leaking and replace.

Sounds like a blocked pilot jet in the carby. Forget the chemical just poke it with something fine.

Probably, about the time it lost power is when the bearing went bad. The rotor was probably hitting the stator at that point, but the exhaust noise was so loud that you couldn't hear it. As long as it is turning, it will try to produce power, but with the bad bearing, it eventually overheated.

WURTH, supply various adhesives suitable for use with fuel systems

If you have an oil level switch on this generator, it could be that you have low oil level or the switch is bad. Check the oil level. Bypass the oil level switch.

How old is the fuel in the tank, and how full is the tank? Fuel goes bad with time due to the ethonol turning to gummy varnish like substance. Not keeping a tank full allows condensation to form on the inner walls, contaminating the fuel with water. Drain the tank completely and fill with new gasoline.

How did you "clean the carb?" If it was not completely disassembled, soaked in carb cleaner, and all jets and ports blown out with air, you could have blockages from the "bad gas."

Remove the float bowl and clean out the debris where the bowl nut screw into the carb. Also make sure the bowl nut itself is clean. The fuel jet is directly above the bowl nut. When they sit for any length of time water from condensation causes corrosion that falls to the lowest part of the carb and clogs the jet. Check fuel flow by turning on the fuel while the bowl is removed. It should fill a spray paint can lid in 8 - 10 seconds or less. Make sure to spray carb cleaner into the bowl nut threaded area to clean the tiny jet orifice hole. You may have to use a toothpick to remove debris in this area. Do not force the toothpick into any holes. Use it like a scraper. Let me know if this does ot get you going. There is more that can be done.

If the plug of your Pramac PX5000 generator gets caught in an AC socket, follow these steps: 1. Turn off the electricity to the socket.2. Wear insulated gloves for safety.3. Gently wiggle the plug while pulling it out.4. Apply a bit of lubricant if needed.5. Use insulated pliers to grip and pull the plug.6. If you cannot take it away, get help from an expert electrician to keep it away from harm or injury.

What's the output voltage? Only way to know is measure it

If your Pramac 12k battery charger is displaying a failure alarm, there could be a few possible causes:

1. Check the voltage level of the battery: Make sure that the battery is at the correct voltage level and that it is properly connected to the charger.
2. Check the charger connections: Make sure that the charger is properly connected to the power source and that the connections are not loose or damaged.
3. Check the charger's fuse: Make sure that the charger's fuse is not blown.
4. Check the charger's cooling system: Make sure that the charger's cooling system is working properly and that it is not blocked or damaged.
5. Check the charger's electronic board: Make sure that the charger's electronic board is not damaged or malfunctioning.

Based on the information provided, it seems that the generator is producing voltage but not delivering it to the connected devices. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

1. Check the circuit breakers: Make sure the circuit breakers on the generator are not tripped. If they are, reset them and try again.
2. Check the connections: Ensure that all the connections between the generator and the devices you are trying to power are secure and not loose.
3. Check the voltage regulator: The voltage regulator controls the output voltage of the generator. If it is faulty, it may not be allowing voltage to pass through to the connected devices. You may need to have it tested or replaced.
4. Check the automatic voltage regulator (AVR): If your generator has an AVR, it may be malfunctioning and preventing power from reaching the connected devices.
5. Check the capacitor: While a visual inspection may not always be enough to detect a faulty capacitor, it is worth checking it with a capacitor tester to make sure it is functioning properly.
6. Check the wiring: Inspect the wiring for any signs of damage, such as frayed or broken wires. If you find any, you will need to repair or replace the affected wires.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to consult with a qualified technician to diagnose and fix the problem.

My Pramac p6000s fuel pump won’t work off the key but will if a put it straight to live on battery any ideas thanks

Contact them direct. This is an undocumented error. The obvious thing to do would be to reduce the engine speed? https://www.generac.com/service-support/faqs/home-backup-error-codes/rpm-sense-loss-code-1501-1505-1511-1515 https://www.pramac.com/learningcenter ..
