How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not rely solely on remote status; verify generator locally when safe.

  • Network check: Confirm home internet and router are working. Reboot router if needed.
  • Module status: Check LEDs on the Briggs & Stratton monitoring module. Follow the manual to interpret blink codes and reconnect to Wi‑Fi if required.
  • Cabling: Inspect the low-voltage cable between the module and controller for damage or loose connectors.
  • Re-register device: Use the Briggs & Stratton app or portal to re-add the generator if it was removed or reset.
