the earlier models of 4KY (MicroLite 4000) used a low oil level safety switch in oil sump. I have seen this problem happen after oil change.
when oil is drained, the float on switch drops, then sticks at low position and does not come back up when oil is refilled. Onan did away with this switch somewhere around 96-97....and sent out service bulletin advising that the wire to the switch be disconnected. If you post complete model and spec, i.e 4KYFA26100_?, can determine if this applies to your genset.
