Onan starts and dies, throws Code 3
We hit a heat wave and had to run our generator an Onan (HGJAB901A), it quit and threw a Code I believed was "Low Oil Pressure", I assumed it was due to low oil level and refilled. Now it just starts...

Once again I must thank all of you that have responded. I looked through my literature from Winnebago this morning and looked parts for oil, air and fuel filters and will pick them up on the way home from the storage yard.
I then thought, Google the service manual, how smart we get too late. I found the manual, downloaded it to a DVD and found all the answers I hope I need.
To j-d, I did Google the manual and now I have it to take with me.
To bounder 39zman, you are right, the pressure switch is right there in the service manual and hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to check it out. I also reread the owners manual and have learned about all the things I did wrong regarding reading the codes, so tomorrow I'll follow the instructions.
As soon as I have checked out the codes again, and checked the oil pressure switch, I'll let you know the results.
Thanks again.
