Taped mine off, now its working! I have two carbon monoxide sensors in the garage, doors open, fan on. Two fridges and one freezer packed to the hilt, thanks for the tip!
I have been having the exact same problems with my Westinghouse 9500dfc. I have had some success with customer service, but we are into the 3 rd week of back and forth and they are sending a new co sensor. I hope that works David
Another dumb requirement for a safety feature to protect the people who don’t know where generators should be run. Then when these features fail you have to deal with it unfortunately.
@@Man-Time is it just a matter of connecting the two wires (assuming there are 2 which may be incorrect) or is disabling it more involved? I would prefer just removing it for I would never operate that generator anywhere that I would care about CO
@condor5635 lol. It was a 6 wire plug with a schematic in Chinese to pin out. A test for even the most skilled electrician. Tried to unplug and run with same result. Agreed that I don’t need or want it.
The tape didn’t work the first time. Why do you think it will now work in the second generator? Must you put the tape on before it ever gets tripped/fouled?

Glad it worked after the tape job!
So did this ever get fixed?
Sounds like it's low on oil
That was my first thought. Added oil to the full case. Then jumped the switch. There’s a separate low oil light

Best of luck Man! at least there is customer service vs some off brand Amazon special

Yeah I was tempted to bypass the sensor. Hopefully taping over it will work. I think once it’s fouled it stays fowled

@@Man-Time - just taping it or enclosing it in a Ziploc bag or something would probably be just as effective!
Id rather they wash the poison pesticides off our fruit and leave the carbon menoxide to us.

Right that’s my theory. I didn’t have tape on it when it fouled
Folks put a 20 inch box fan blowing on it , keeping it cool and blowing away the exhaust 😊😊😊😊
It works 😮
Have to dumb everything down for today’s society.
People are really dumb now 😢😢😢
Good thing you didn’t need it in the 3 months of hell😢
