Generator fails to run its scheduled weekly exercise test.

Safety first: Ensure area around generator is clear before testing auto start.

• Check controller settings: Enter the Winco controller menu and verify the exercise timer is enabled, with correct day and time.
• Set clock: Correct the internal clock if time/date are wrong.
• Test manual start: Start the generator in MANUAL to confirm it can run. If manual start fails, resolve that first.
• Battery check: Ensure battery voltage is adequate for auto start.

If the unit runs manually but never exercises, the controller may need firmware update or replacement.
