Google Onan Generator Trouble Codes. Download pdf. A 3 blink indicates a service level fault. Follow instructions for needed 2nd level code.

It should have two numbers. Possibly a 36 code. My 36 code was rectified by a new fuel pump.

We were camping this weekend and my converter broke down all house batteries died. I won't charge my house batteries so i used a car charger to do it so i can close slides and jack.
is it possible that converter is bad this would cause the Gen. not run right and showing code 34?
