Onan 7.5 Quiet Diesel Problem
Always starts and runs good for however long you'd like, but don't shut it down and expect to restart it again, while it still hot or even still warm, as it will shut itself down after 5 minutes and send a code 24 (Controller did not sense temperature change during first 5 minutes of operation). Corrective Action: See and authorized Onan dealer.
Had a Cat dealer order me a sensor that is supposed to be the most likely culprit, so now the question is, has anyone personally done this and where might this part be located? I've looked a every drawing I can find and can't find any reference to this particular sensor.
The genset doesn't slide out the front like some and really hope I won't have to drop it for access. The top cover has limited clearance and looks doubtful for being able to remove such. Let alone work on any parts contained within. Then again, towards the front might be possible if one can remove the cover.
Anyway, any insight to the problem will be appreciated and am putting off taking it to Cummins, as a last resort.
