Thank you for a great video, sorry for the long post. I have an unusual issue with my eu2000i. The generator starts fine but I get no power to the outlets and the green led doesn’t light. When I was testing your troubleshooting options by checking the voltage of the 5 wire connector I was only getting 190v a/c, not 225v though I was getting 10v from the pink/gray. The weird thing is, when I plugged the 5 wire connector back together while the engine was running, the green led went on and the outlets then had 126 volts and it worked perfectly to power my tools. After I shut off the generator and restarted it the green led was out again and I had no power until I disconnected the 5 wire connector and replugged it back together which worked again to turn on the green led and have power to the outlets again. This work-around only works if the eco switch is on. If the eco switch is off, and I unplug and replug the 5 wire connector while the motor runs, I get no green led light one no power at the outlets. Is it possibly a capacitor issue? When eco mode is on, and I unplug and replug the connector, the motor slows for a couple of seconds and then regains its speed. Also, after I unplug and replug the connector in eco mode and have power, I am able to switch between eco mode and no eco mode and the outlets don’t lose power and the meter show a consistent 126v. I converted my eu2000i companion to propane when I purchased it 15 years ago and It’s worked perfectly up until a few weeks ago.

PERFECT VIDEO BRUH! All the details, very little filler and I love that you speak clearly so I can watch it on 4x and still understand what you're saying! LOL

Hi Martin. Thnx for educating community, it is weary hard to find any DIY info on these generators. I’m having issue where there are no lights at all , generator is running rough and only has 16v DC output where 12v should be . Also checked the AC output from white , blue and red whirring and it does produce 220-260v depending from RPM’s , do you have any advice how to proceed from here ?

Carb spring popped out

I have a question I recently bought a used home eu2000i and I cleaned out the fuel tank and the carburetor and the internals…. The machine runs very good my only issue is that well it starts wanting to cut out around 1600 watts and then it drops and tries to pick up watts and drops again it never shows overload….. the green light does seem to momentarily go out….. lets say I kept it at 1300 watts I would have no issue take up a notch and it starts to stumble….

Thank you for the video. I had a transmission replaced in my 2500 a few months ago and now my flex plate is broken. Was seeing if I wanted to do it to save 700 dollars in labor.

If you had the manual , you would know that , that machine has blue tooth . It will tell you something’s . But if you have to further to diagnose the problem , then this series of vids just might be what you need . This generator costs $1166 . Oo from a dealer , and Honda generators are damned neer bullet proof . Don’t throw it away if you don’t have to . The Japanese did us a huge favor as their technology to build things has greatly improved over the past 4 decades . My hats off to them .

I just got this for my car I’m almost 16, jeez this is so old 😭

Hello, mu honda eu1000i 220v 50hz has a delay to start ac output. When this problem started, when i started the denerator i had to put eco throttle button on rabit to start to generate ac power inmediately. And now after i start, i have to wait around 10 - 30 minutes to start to generate ac.

Saludos como podria conseguir el avr de ese geneeador eu2000i

very good, thanks

Excellent video

I wonder if you could help me find answers to the following: Thinking to lower the pressure tank and connect to the pump about 10' - 15' under the ground to eliminate the heating well house in the winter season. My pipe runs about 6' under the ground. 1) is it a good idea? 2) how to do it? 3) Should I install another pressure tank under the house in the crawl space? The well is about 30 yards away from the house.

I have an older Predator 2500 inverter that runs beautifully but doesn't power the 110v outlet. I replaced the outlet with a household outlet and it worked on a small appliance. i started it later and it didn't work again. Any suggestions?

very nice !!!! i am working in the same system for my 25" Rv!!!! i take few good ideas from your project!! Thank you

Same issue on my brand spanking new eu2200i. I got it yesterday. Kept flooding i paid out of pocket for the fix. Now i get home, have green light, no power. Tested as a ground reverse. I dont know how to fix it so im returning it

Thanks, I have a dead one also, hoping to figure it out. Thanks for the info...

What is the site you obtained the manual from?

Mine is having the same problem, no power coming out. I'm gonna go through what you have shown. Thank you for doing this video ❤️

Thanks for the video

I bought a new fuse and it says line & Load but old one doesnt say anything on it please help.

Do you recall a part number for that wire? After an hour of troubleshooting your video took me right to the problem.

Awesome video. Thank you very much Martin. We are anchored out in Georgian Bay and woke up to make my coffe and charge the house batteries. My Honda 2000i had the dreaded no AC,ughhh. I went through your testing procedure and never guess what I found. Yep, my white AC output wire has broken right at the connector. Exact same issue. Jammed the wire back in the connector and put a little dab of JB weld to hold it in place. Just a quick fix to get power, will replace the connector when back home. Thanks again Martin, you're a life safer.

Great video ty

I bought the 2200 but i should’ve got the companion because of the 30amp plug for my rv. Is there a kit to change out the plate containing both plugs? A plug and play kit that contains a 30 amp plug? Essentially turning my 2200 into a companion?

Lol DYI

I'll pay someone to do it, but I appreciate seeing this walk-though. You sure have a lot of patience... I wish you were my neighbor, lol.

Отличный обзор!!!

Thank you

Thanks so much for the great tutorial on how to test for voltage... and your wife is right that you're a nut -- you should never run a generator indoor!!!!

Did you use galvanized or pvc for the piping?

Hey Martin, I just changed my spark plug, carbeurater (old one had a broken choke lever), and air filters. When i put it back together, it will only idle at a very low RPM. No power from AC outlets. Any advice what I should check for? From looking, this is not a very common problem.

its holy not holly

awesome made part of my playlist of favorite videos

a star is born

shave your knuckles

are you sure this is faster and easier then taping up the trim piece?

Like your pipe holder idea

Nice work I have the same Honda, have a problem with 12 volts DC port I found 24 Volts Any suggestions to resolve this problem?

Very informative video. Thank you

Excellent tutorial, thank you, very informative

Can you link where you found the wiring harness

hola tengo un generador igual al de tu video, es 120v. yo vivo en la argentina y la corriente es 220v. tengo alguna forma de convertirlo para 220v

Nice video, I had the same problem with mine, broken connector terminal on the white wire. Must be a common issue with these units. How did you fix yours, did you solder the terminal back together? I’ve been trying to find a replacement terminal with no luck.

Hi

Same exact thing with mine tha .thank you, problem solved

Martin what is the name of the winch tower you use for this job?
