Actually you aren't the /only /two! I have had very similar problems
with at least three OB systems in the last year or so. In every case,
everything seemed to work perfectly when I was there, but within 2 or 3
days there would be a call saying that the generator wasn't coming on
(always in the middle of the night). One owner would start pushing
buttons willy-nilly, so it all had to be reprogrammed every visit. This
problem has cuased a lot of irritation and at least one lawsuit
involving a dealer - who now won't attempt ANY off-grid work at all.
Surely this is just a software problem that could be rectified without
majorly re-work of the Mate?

Hey Jay, guess what I did yesterday in a Fu**(&& Blizzard! Yup that's right
went to "fix" the gen no start feature on the OB.
I reset the settings in the mate repoled it last week for the same issue, up
in hopes that it might turn on the gen BEFORE shutting down.NO error lights
gen will start NO problem in Man on or at the shed.
HELLO OUTBACK YOU OUT THERE??????
Would someone at OUTBACK let Chris out of the dog house, so he can respond &
we can hear how Jay & I are the only folks that seem to be having these
issues with the OB product line.

Hi Tump,
So just got a call from a customer.
Mate not auto starting the generator.
Mate set to auto.
Will start manually.
Time and date are perfect.
Volts got to 1.5v under 2 minute start and no start.
Getting frustrating.
