Follow the steps below to fix the choke cable on Westinghouse inverter generators for proper operation.
| Step 1: Make sure the engine is “off” and the generator is cold. | |
 |
Step 2: Remove the 2 screws that secure the engine maintenance panel to the frame. Slide off the spark access cover and push out on panel to remove. |
 |
Step 3: Locate the choke cable. |
 |
Step 4: Switch the engine control switch from OFF to RUN while observing the choke cable. If the choke moves from OFF to RUN you will need to adjust the cable. |
 |
Step 5: To adjust the cable place the control knob into the RUN position. |
 |
Step 6: Loosen the screw at the top of the cable clamp. |
 |
Step 7: Using pliers, pull more slack in the cable so that when you switch from RUN to OFF the choke cable does not move. |
| Step 8: Rotate the control knob from CHOKE to RUN to confirm the choke is fully open. | |
| Step 9: Tighten the screw on the cable and start the inverter. If the issue still persists you may need to change the slack in the cable and test again. |
