Common Briggs & Stratton generator replacement parts
When repairing your generator, these commonly replaced parts are essential for restoring function:
- Carburetor: Responsible for mixing air and gas before the fuel mix enters the engine, the carburetor ensures efficient combustion.
- Digital spark advance module: Optimizes engine performance by precisely controlling spark timing for consistent operation.
- Brush holder and rectifier assembly: This component creates and delivers DC voltage to the rotor, strengthening the magnetic field to maintain consistent AC voltage output.
- Circuit breaker: Protects the generator by interrupting the flow of electricity during overloads or short circuits.
Troubleshooting a Briggs & Stratton generator with no AC output
If your generator is running but not producing electricity, here are steps to identify and resolve the issue:
- Check circuit breakers: Inspect the generator’s circuit breakers for tripped switches and reset them if necessary.
- Test the device: Ensure the problem isn’t with the device you’re powering. Try plugging a different device into the generator.
- Inspect power cords: Examine the power cord or extension cord for frays or damage. Replace damaged cords to restore power safely.
- Inspect internal wiring: Shut off the generator and check for loose or disconnected wires. Reconnect loose wires and repair any broken wires.
