Dave,
I agree with Jerry that they might not make it til spring. If I
remember right, they are fairly easy to change. I have a customer with
over 8000 hours on his Ecogen 6. I still have many customers still running

The brushes are a variable wear item but when they go the unit is down, I
have seen brushes worn down to the ribbon in under 2000 hrs and some go
twice that and are still OK, As they wear rotor scuff can be an issue plus
as they wear the tension gets weaker and its more prone to build up on
I have a Generac EcoGen 6kW LP gas genset in my neighborhood that I’m
maintaining. It’s been in service for over 12 years and it has 3,200 hours on

I see that I missed the recommended 2,500 hour service for changing the
alternator rotor brushes.
My question is how critical is it that the br

If the unit is still under warranty, have any Generac dealer run through
the diagnostics. The testing flow suggests rotor or stator problems, and
there is a proscribed testing flow that needs to be performed. If it is
determined to be a warranty issue, it will be fixed for you at no cost.

I had undervoltage on an eco-gen when the programming accidentally got

Hello David, I have had that problem on other generators.
I have had similar problems not with an Eco gen but with a couple of other
