Here is a link to download GAC's adjustment procedure. It has a step or two that the -13 TM doesn't include.
It covers the tweek that may be needed to the black knob position that CallMeColt mentioned above.

You have a few problems from what I can see in your pictures.
The first BIG one is the black knob on the front of the mechanical governor plate is in the STOP position.
You need to loosen the knob and move it as far as it will toward the START position and then tighten the knob.
The two...
Yes requires returning just the controller card to me so I can add your homes WiFi router credentials to it.
No charge to do that update other than return shipping.
A few internet connectivity enhancements have been made to the Remote Start kits that I offer.
Here are the current connectivity options...
1) The original version (AKA Version 1) provids a direct WiFI link between your smart phone and the controller - no router or internet required.

The K8 relay monitors the current load on each of the 3 legs of the generator to determine if the...
If there is a section on testing K8 it would be in the -24 TM.
The tests I mentioned are my own used to narrow down problems with Overload and Short Circuit Faults.
The Battle Short switch cannot inhibit Short Circuit faults. See the -10 TM
Poor contact in the S6 and S8 can cause this type of issue.
With the set OFF exercise S6 and S8 by moving them repeatedly thru all positions and then set them back to their needed positions before starting. If you...
