could be a number of things but i'd start with making sure there is no corrossion on the fuse connection, spray water repellent to clear moisture, have the OBD read may give a code, hope this helps
That would be your pump priming, however I would check the sump or filter in the bottom sometimes they get debris caught in them. Some have a filter others have a screen.
Look at your maintenance manual. To find where your fuse box is located(may be under the hood or under the steering wheel). When you find the fuse box look on the back of the panel flap and you'll find a fuse map. Locate the fuse that corresponds with your problem. It could be the same fuse but not likely. If fuse is blown then replace it with a spare. Most manufacturers will put spare fuses in the box or you could pull a fuse from some where else just to try and see if the problem is still there( make sure it's the same size and understand that it could blow this fuse as well then you will need 2 fuses). Most of the time fuses don't just blow. For some reason it pulled to much load. Probably a dead short in the wiring. I hope this helps.
check for power at the starter at the big cable have someone try to start it and test the little cable for power when starting if both have power then replace starter
Find the starter relay, pull it. try to start the engine. if the fuse doesn't blow , replace the relay. If it still blows there is a short in the wire from the fuse to the relay. Check directly under the relay. this is where wires tend to break first.
I have the same genset. Just fixed a similar prob with it. Mine would intermittently blow fuses at first then started blowing them as soon as trying to start. I also saw a puff of smoke from reg when it did run at one point. Carefully check stator wires for shorts to ground. Make sure to lift the stator wires that are grounded in control box. If no grounds replace control board and reg board. $400+. Cross your fingers and try it. Mine worked, thank God. The pc boards are marginally designed and built. The relays, diodes and other componants are way too undersized for the application and can not survive a lot of cycling on and off. When starting genset make sure to slowly apply loads to it. Same thing when shutting it down. Dont shut it down with any load. It wont take it Good luck
