I have a couple of questions for everyone.

My generator will not respond to anything from the remote start panel. The much mentioned 4 conductor plug behind/underneath/beside/somewhere around the generator does not exist on mine. I have found four wires with crimp connectors on them, so perhaps those are the correct wires and the plug has been eliminated, but they're too far back in the compartment and too short for me to get to. I think I am just going to run a new four conductor cable from the generator control board to the remote start panel and try to fix the start/stop issue that way.

While working with the remote start panel, this is what I have discovered:

Tank levels, gray, black, and water, seem to work.
Water pump switch works.
Battery level meter does not work, but has ground and 12 volts on it's terminal, so I think it is kaput.
Fuel gauge reads full.
PO removed all traces of propane, so propane level does not work.

My questions are:

What does the Fuel Gauge indicate? Gasoline for the generator? My gas tanks are at about 3/4 full right now.

Where can I get a new battery level meter?

Thank you.
