Hi all, ive read several threads about this. Still trying to figure things out here. At about 2500 watts it starts tripping the overload, reading about 40% load on the gage. If i enable battleshort it will not trip, but the overload light turns on. And remains on.
Looking for some tips to try and rectify this. Is this the k8 relay (ci?) being dirty and just needs cleaned? I seem to see a lot of problems with this. And im kind of at a loss here. All switches look good, wires look good, ac ci switch seems to work fine. Overload resets when pushing the button and immediately reconnects when flip the switch.
Unit has 220 hours on it. I do live in a very humid environment as well
EDIT: And now after running for 13 hours it wouldn't shut down. I dont know if this is related. Had to use the off switch in the engine bay and wait for it to run out of fuel to shut down. The run switch did nothing but turn power off to the gauges.
TIA
