We have checked batteries, gas supply and water pressure, but cannot get it to start. Any ideas before we send it back?

if you have a 110 volt supply check circuit panel for a triped breaker, also there is an iginter that could be bad..

If you do not hear a snapping sound (spark) when you open the tap it can be the batteries installed incorrectly or the switch is off. Be sure you have it connected to a regulated gas supply. Hope this helps.

This happened to me and I would try the following:1) If propane, make sure that your gas pressure isn't too high. Mine was (I think) 10psi and EZ tech support told me that it shouldl be 8psi (give them a call; they actually answer the phone and know what they're talking about.2) Make sure that the wiring harnesses haven't come apart during shipping. This involves removing the cover and pulling apart and re-inserting all connectors, one at a time.Good luck !!

Do you have the water going into the inlet side of the heater? Had mine in wrong when I first tried to start it

Change the batteries and try it. Return unit if it still doesn't work properly.

I couldn't even get mine to start but I hope it was because I didn't have the required flow and pressure. I'll find out in the spring when I go back and try again. So far I'm not really impressed. Don't hesitate if it doesn't return go for a return

I bought this generator in December. I didn't try using it until June. Put gas in it. It started but didn't generate any electricity. Going to call buffalo tools monday. May have bought a piece of junk.

I'd just back up in the "Menu Tree" and try again. If that didn't work I'd Power cycle the unit to reboot it and start over. Good luck.

I am having the same problem. There is not sound of gas going into the top lamp. Tried the priming of the hoses.Any other suggestions? I have this brand new item and it doesn't work.

Mine just arrived and we can't get it to even turn on. Three people have tried. The batteries test good. What are we missing?

No help here. Ours worked just fine. Regarding the previous comment we did fully charge ours before we used it.

No, we had the same problem. We exchanged it for a new one hoping it was just defective but the new one has not worked either.

Sounds like the pump. There is a fly wheel [you can see this through the top [a round hole] that may be stuck. Try forcing water or a burst of air through it. Some times all it needs is pulling the filters up and down to get it started.

Mine works fine. I'd suggest contacting B&D; direct or take it to a local B&D; service center.

Make sure it's warmed up to the green light comes on then try. Also make sure black tube that feeds the machine is all the way to the bottom of tank as well. If making a loud noise before green light comes on its deff a defective product send it back asap, that's all I can help with there.

I agree with the other answer here, try using it plugged in. we've had ours for a couple years and its fine. you may want to talk to manufacturer see if they can do anything for you

Try to bleed out the system. Hold down the gas button for like 15 seconds then hit the ignite button. Fire should light. If no fire then theres no gas. If the fire starts hold the gas down for another 10 seconds then let go. It should stay on. If that doesn't work then the sensor in it might have died. Cant remember the name of the sensor but that happened to me before. When it died i just bought a new one.

Not sure why it isn't working other than you may have a bad unit. DO both units light up? If not, then it's bad. And I don't mean a good bad. I've had 3 of these so far since one got water in it but have had no other problems. Good luck!

Dear Lyricallulu, According to GE, there could be several causes for the unit not operating. I have listed the troubleshooting causes from the manual to check below. If you have checked all of these and still have not corrected your problem, we recommend you contact GE for service at 1-800-432-2737.

Just me recommending a few things....Try a new tank, then start the grill, once lit...let run for a minute, then turn off, turn back on high and light.good luck!
