Reasons Why an Excavator Has Power but Fails to Start
1 Answers
Possible causes include burnt or poor contact inside the battery relay. Also check the contact condition at the battery terminals by pouring hot water over them and starting the engine - poor contact will cause overheating until the water evaporates. Reasons for excavator failing to start: 1. Loose battery clamps causing starting difficulties. 2. Insufficient battery power or loose battery terminals leading to poor contact. 3. Faulty starter motor or generator failing to produce adequate power. 4. Using inappropriate fuel - high viscosity diesel in winter and low viscosity diesel in summer.
