Possible Causes
Failed coolant temperature, oil pressure, or fuel level sensor, Short or open circuit in sensor wiring, Incorrect sensor type installed, Corroded sensor connector
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Shut down the generator and disconnect battery negative before probing sensor circuits.
- Step 1 – Identify which sensor: Use the Kipor controller menu or manual to determine which analog sensor is reporting E14 (e.g., temp, oil, fuel).
- Step 2 – Inspect wiring and connectors: Trace the harness from the sensor to the controller. Clean and reseat connectors, and repair any damaged insulation.
- Step 3 – Test sensor resistance: Remove the sensor connector and measure resistance across its terminals. Compare to Kipor specifications at ambient temperature. Replace if out of range or open/shorted.
- Step 4 – Verify correct part: Ensure any replacement sensor matches the original Kipor part number and type (NTC, PTC, pressure transducer, etc.).
