What should I do if my generator is not working?

After maintenance, the system is usually in the “off” or “reset” position. If you are still experiencing starting problems, follow this basic checklist: Check the fuel level to confirm that the generator is not simply out of oil. Check the fuel line and shutoff valve to ensure that there are no obstructions and that the oil flow is on.

What is a standby generator?

Why is my generator not working after a power outage?
