Any clue where I might find wiring diagram for the low oil switch on this generator..dogs chewed wires off --I'm told it has 4 wires coming out of the switch on the side of the motor--yellow, orange, black and yellow with red stripe.....Coming from the shroud on the engine he says he sees only one wire-a red one.....any clues?? Thanks

Thanks--now I don't feel so dumb--I dont know and nobody else does either--he's just gotta start taking off plastic shroud junk till he can see some more dangling wires Somewhere......

That's kind of what I thought too Tom.
I don't know anything about that model.
Mine has one wire on the low pressure switch.
It is either on or off.

My motor blew on my little Lincoln welder / 4K watt generator . I replaced it with a bigger new motor and found the low oil pressure switch was also a junction for 6 - 9 ? volts coming from the ignition > low oil switch / junction terminal > exciter wire for the generator .

So one of the wires is going back to the generator and the rest probably to the front of the motor .

If the low oil pressure switch kicks in , it grounds the ignition I believe .
