Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the generator and allow it to cool before opening the enclosure.

  • Clear vents: Remove leaves, dust, or objects blocking Hyundai enclosure louvers and grilles.
  • Internal cleaning: Use low-pressure compressed air to blow dust from radiator, alternator, and engine fins.
  • Check clearances: Ensure installation meets Hyundai's minimum clearance requirements from walls and other structures.
  • Fan shroud: Inspect engine fan shroud for cracks or missing sections that could reduce airflow. Replace if damaged.
